Just wait till you see the full suit.

Can anyone comment on the sizing of the new linen popovers for this year?
I remember having sizing issues last year because they were cut differently than the traditional contemporary/slim sizing guide.
To add my say, I do 100% agree that MTM with SM is very inconsistent with certain requests often being completely overlooked. It's a work in progress.
For me, at least, Luxire is better at accommodating the requests that I make, but since I live in Toronto, I have the benefit of being able to peruse fabrics and getting measured in-person via SM.
Yup, same here. 6'/205#/44" chest and the XL polo is almost silly long. Dropping all of them at tailor tomorrow for hemming, which feels ridiculous but I can't stand the length.
Anyone know if that sportcoat discount apply in-store as well? Thinking of dropping by the store after work and trying on the linen/wool blend Bottolis.
Did anyone else see the casual oxfords pop up on MassDrop? Can anyone speak to the comparison between the dress shirt OCBD versus the casual OCBD?
I know that the casual is a little shorter, but I though that the slim fit was already a bit shorter than the contemporary fit.
I already own quite a few slim fit dress shirts in a size 16 (before the multiple sleeve lengths). I'd love to stock up, but I'm just nervous about how they'll fit.
These are Alpha sized and a Massdrop Exclusive. We don't stock these. Follow the size chart. The collars/cuffs are completely unlined. The back has a box pleat and locker loop. The back of the collar has a button. More of a traditional oxford, and a bit shorter to wear better untucked.
It is a work in progress when it comes to special requests. It's something that a good majority of MTM companies will shy away from simply because of this reason. I'm pretty sure Propercloth does not accommodate and their business is humming along just fine. Luxie has an advantage as you are communicating directly with the factory itself. With us, at the moment, you communicate to someone in our shop or online. That then gets translated again via our MTM manager, then again once it reaches the factory. Any bump in the chain and you get something that may not be 100%. That said, we're looking at how to better improve this. I'm not defending this in any way, we can do better and believe me we are working hard with the factory to ensure clearer communication and proper interpretation of measurement points and requests.
Pretty clean fit in the front for the Neapolitan but some issues with the back. No real bump behind collar but some pulling, probably exacerbated by uneven shoulders.
Can this be resolved by letting out the back seam or am I looking at more major surgery?
