You blow Drake's away now, even without consideration to their outlandish pricing. Besides always having been a bit troublesome for those of us under 6 foot, Drake's took an aesthetic left turn towards 1990's father who stopped caring and realized he forgot the orange slices for his kids' soccer match:

"Ugh, how will I get that mud out of the minivan upholstery?"

But if you really want me to never visit their site again, you could create a Neo version of the Mk I games suit: ultra casual (especially summer) suit that can be thrown in the washing machine. Double-breasted version also welcome.;)
Would smash buy an affordable games suit!

@spiermackay I ordered this suit (https://www.spierandmackay.com/product/blue-pin-texture-10005-5933-2112-f1h1), which is advertised as patch pockets, 1/4 lining and spalla camiscia shoulders and, although the one I received seems to be same color/texture, it is fully lined, with flap pockets and lightly padded shoulder. These are three stylistic differences that make a completely different suit (I was counting on using the jacket as a separate/SC). Is this a mistake in the description, or was I just sent a different suit than was advertised/bought? Wrote a few days ago with no answer.

My email from over a week ago has gone unanswered by their customer service as well. Purchased two suits, asked for the 20% off coupon to be applied since my order was the day before…no reply.

DM me the order#

We only have 2 people running CS and they do get back to everyone. They try to get back within 48 hours. That said, whenever a sale runs on tailoring they get innundated.

Same deal. See above. Just a heads up for the 20% to be applied there is a price adjustment policy that is followed. It will be retroactive to the day/time you emailed.

@spiermackay Rick, if looking to add some things to custom, would it be easier to add a little click box for add ons before adding to cart that people may often email about to add, or add in notes? I am just thinking things like unfused collar/cuffs, pre-wash fabric before cutting, etc. May save some confusion and time.

I ordered extra-slim shirts thinking those have the same fit as Milano from BB based on measurements. But now I’m doubting myself. Does anyone have experience comparing the two? FWIW size is 15/32

i wear a 15/35 Milano fit and the S&M Slim 15 fits me about the same

Nick Lopez in the Galleria area, I do all my stuff there (primarily hemming and a 1.75" cuff- IIRC its about $20 per pair). They do bespoke and are constantly complimenting the quality of the S&M stuff I bring in.

Coincidentally, I just picked up 6 pairs of pants last week and will be picking up 3 more pairs this week- seems like everyone bought a bunch of stuff during COVID that just sat in the closet lol
