On a side note, for those who ordered MTO, what was the rough turnaround time?

My suit took about 6 weeks to get to my door.

Yet, those minimal changes gives me the impression that the jacket fits much better than your usual stuff (not saying that your usual stuff is ill-fitting). I don't understand how simply adding to the shoulders and waist gives off such a different silhouette but interestingly, this jackets feels less "stocky" (for lack of a better adjective - I'm sorry, English isn't my main language). Maybe I'm picturing some of your jackets that aren't S&M Neapolitan fit, though.

Anyway, great jacket, you're lucky that such small changes give such a great finished product.

(I wanted to comment on the WAYWRN thread but thought it might be best posted here.)

I agree. Just a small tweak for an improved fit. Thanks!

Mine was about 7 weeks for trousers, 8 for the jacket.

Regarding custom suits and jackets, has anyone found that their jackets came without a fabric label nor a monogram (if you requested one)?

Yes.

Yes.

Which one or both?

Mine came with neither if I recall— need to properly inspect it given some of the quibbles in this thread. I received it earlier this week as I left town.

Thanks, so it’s probably a common thing since the program is brand new.

I didn't request the monogram for my first order but one thing I find interesting is that my name was printed on the material tag inside the chest pocket.

Brown moleskins. So comfy and they fit like a dream: just a hem and a cuff.

Question. Are any of the SM suit fabrics better for wrinkles? I travel and want as wrinkle free suit as possible

 

[nqtri]

Would the undyed white cord trousers decolorize into something more natural with wear? Right now they look too white to me.

Both

Both

Thanks!
