@TweedCamp: How about it, gents? Change up from Tweed to Flannel?

I'm also going to post a new thread hoping to direct some people who haven't been following this thread to see if anyone else is interested.

OK. I ordered a Formosa suit so that I can try on the jacket. I'm most likely in for the Fox flannel then. A definite maybe. You know assuming everything goes well and such.

Waiting for the Irish sweater and other treats to be delivered today.

Can I order a Formosa suit and try the jacket on? I would be in for the blazer and delfino if the fit works. I would have to return the suit but I hate to trouble the good guys at NMWA.

Thanks, man.
Meanwhile I've just sent my order email to Greg.
Where are the Tweed guys?

Gosh, I hope so. I'd hate to be banned before my Schneider preorder comes in.

In all seriousness, Greg's really the one to answer this, but I believe that as long as we don't abuse the privilege ordering to determine size with the intent to return is OK. At a certain point, it's the only way to find out what size in a given item fits you.

I did the same with some Rota trousers before placing an MTO order. Greg confirmed it was not an issue, in the end it turned into a sale of 3 pairs for NMWA.

Hope it works for you, Frank. :)
From all your very helpful fit pics it certainly seems like you have your sizing sorted in a wide range of items.

Aren't you in NYC? I know you contacted me about Formosa bespoke here. If you're here, it's MUCH more efficient (and less costly for us) to come by and try sizes on.

I'm not, I would have tried bespoke already if I was in NYC. I hate to travel for fittings but if RTW fits good then I'd go for it but I do understand that it is a completely unnecessary hassle for you guys. And I know the suit pants won't fit me based on those measurements!
