It's PS so it's the greatest ever right? Please say yes. The store on Madison is a dream and I'm curious about their MTM offerings. Jackets start at $695???! Too good to be tru it seems. I am looking for a summer weight sport coat to wear with jeans boots and a casual unbuttoned shirt or, gasp, a tshirt. I have an E Thomas silk linen fabric herringbone fabric I love.
Here's some unsolicited personal info: I work in an industrial area in Queens, outside my office it's quite dirty and I spend time around the warehouse and machine shop. Considering the environment and that it's a very informal industry I don't have the opportunity to wear a lot "classic menswear". That said I do like unique and high quality clothing and am trying to step it up a bit. Recently had a Martin Greenfield jacket made of the heaviest Harris tweed. It's great in the cold and think it might get better with age and looks good over jeans and boots with a sweater. That said MG style offering felt very limited and I am looking for another MTM or Custom option. Would like to get a warm weather sport coat which could be work with an unbottoned shirt or (gasp) t shirt. I think I'd get much better advice on finding the right look from the guys at Paul Stuart their employees are the coolest of cool IMO, though I don't know if they've ever seen jeans before.
Any advise on PS Customer lab or anyone else? I read up on Ercole but sounds like a nightmare these days, and Alan David is quite expensive for a casual jacket. I spoke to the guy at Peter Elliot once and he said he does custom jackets.
