    Luxire Custom Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

    I have asked something like this before and got no response, but has anyone here used Luxire to make cycling kit, specifically a jersey? I am not the right size for 99% of off the rack kit and if I could capably get a cold weather jersey from Luxire I would likely do so.

    Did you send in a sample jacket for these or just alter the pattern for a standard jacket?

    Warm overcoats

    I had one made by Luxire. That may be more effort intensive than some will want to go, though. To help with sizing, I sent them a coat I already owned but did not like. I then picked out my cloth, requested several style changes over the sample coat, and had a trial fitting. I now I have a coat...
