Hi Spier: Love the oxfords--but I am tall and lanky, and the 15 slim tends to come untucked easily, especially after I've washed (and hang-dry) the shirt several times.

Have you considered extending the length of the off-the-rack shirts to something closer to 30.5-31 inches? Or am I best splurging for made-to-measure? Thanks, and keep it up!

@spiermackay, possible to create a Neo blazer in the 2019 F/W collection out of this Abraham Moon fabric?

I have experience similar to yours with the regular, brushed oxford. But you should give the lightweight oxford a try, I've got little shrinkage and honestly it is the perfect weight.

I think S&M should make the lightweight a regular and the brushed one seasonal honestly.

Thanks for the recommendation! How does the color compare? I love the richness/texture of the brushed oxfords and worry that the lightweight oxfords are a little pale in comparison. But I might have to give it a try!

How is the roll on the lightweight?

It looks iffy to okay on the pictures I've seen it in.

What sort of casual items are you looking for? We're looking to expand our semi-casual and casual offerings.

I honestly thought it was better than the regular oxford. Cant remember exactly how, need to give it another wear.

A S&M macintosh would be interesting. ?

I’m probably not the best one to ask. But for me personally, it would be more casual cloths on MTM. Or a filter for what can be used for casual wear. Looking online it’s harder to discern what can be worn casually, and I don’t want to waste an hour of the guys time in store looking through each swatch lol. And your MTM is flexible enough that I can change the collar to be more casual, and trim the bottom to be worn untucked.

Having crewneck offerings for wool sweaters (even if just in the more basic colours). I’ve had a few from Uniqlo and Muji but the quality just isn’t there. Maybe a quarter zip pullover, those seemed prevalent in my office when it was chilly in May.

I think this was mentioned a few pages back, but a couple slub or knit polos would be great. Or non-pique cotton, kind like Ted Bakers offerings.

And can’t reiterate this enough, I love your business casual/formal offerings. I think the reason it’s been hard to transition to a casual office was there’s no brand that is like S&M for casual.

I agree. A filter for casual fabrics would be great or just more casual fabrics would be good. Dongel sweaters as someone already mentioned. I have two from Club Monaco and the quality isn't there. Fit is on point however.

I'm finding myself wearing more and more casual clothing to the office. But I will be in store to do MTM and will be going with shirts that I can wear un tucked. Or at least long enough that it can be tucked in and not look too long when it's untucked. Or am I going about it the wrong way?

Well I personally also look for the bolded as well, MTM or OTR.

It has worked for me so far.

I want those light weight oxfords with a soft large Italian collar. Hot damn.

My usually shirts are longer to stay tucked. But for my casual shirts I’m probably going to do long enough that it can be tucked, without looking sloppy untucked. Probably aim for mid or just above mid of my pants fly.

So I’ve been staring at the long sleeve polos for a while now, but the only long sleeve polo I’ve ever owned is a rugby (which I like, but is definitely more casual). I like the idea of wearing it with a sportcoat, but can’t seem to find any of the pics people have posted here in the past of that combo.

Basically, unabashedly requesting inspiration photos so I can decide how I’d wear these

I have a pair of Canali light blue and white pants that my wife says looks great on me and they are wearing thin after 5 years. I saw this picture as your header for the dress trousers page and wondered if you are getting the far left color back in stock anytime soon?

Far left look like light gray on my screen, I don’t know that I’ve seen a true light blue from S&M

Anyone have an in the wild pic of the MTO fabric 'Pink Fine Twill'? Looking for a very pale pink.

I have an OTR shirt in a fabric described by this name. If it’s the same, it is definitely not a pale pink. I don’t have photos (can get tomorrow), but trust me. Hoping we get something more pale.
