I haven't yet due to the pandemic, I have had a friend do a MTM tweed jacket with Glenn and said it turned out great!

I don't believe there is a B&M shop, so Glenn wound up traveling to my buddy (in phlly proper) for the fitting. I've chatted back and forth with him over instagram and he's super nice and responsive

I have a shetland sweater and a pair of canvas trousers from Junior's. Very satisfied.

Cool, waiting to feel safe re Covid, would be great to have a local good shop, it’s a great city but the clothing options are dismal

Agreed, Philly is a great and underrated city in many ways, but its clothing scene is oddly lacking.

Anyone tried their ties?

I may give them a shot before too long. I'm curious about the sport coats. The announcement says they want to specialize in American and European tailoring, and their MTO shirt page says MiUSA while the MTO sport coat info is silent or at least a bit fuzzy on that point. I wonder who is making them.

Their ties is made by a reputable manufacturer from England since 1930s. Wonder who it is. I'm really liking two of their ties.

almost positive their jackets are made by H. Freeman in MD

I bought a Junior's Marling & Evans brown wool/linen jacket that will be ready to pickup from the tailor this week.

Everything I've bought from Glenn, Junior's owner, has been top notch. Multiple trousers, many MTM shirts, socks, sweaters, Alden shoes, and the jacket. Junior's has been a breath of fresh air for me outside of J. Press and Brooks Bros. Glenn is super friendly, patient, and cares about the details. Check out the product descriptions on his page for proof.

Ask away if you have any questions on his offerings and my experience with the many many MTM items I've bought from him.

How do you feel about the jacket quality (understanding this is included in the 'top notch' review and that the fabric is a known quantity)?

Jacket quality is great so far - Again, I have to pick up from the tailor. The jacket came unfinished (expected and was communicated as such). I sent Glenn a jacket that fit me really well and he used that as the substitute for an in-person measuring. I live in Chicago area and wasn't ready to hop on a plane but Glenn understood the details that I wanted in the jacket and made in USA is important to me. The jacket sleeves needed to be tapered but that was a minor adjustment IMO. Body, sleeve length, shoulders, full length - perfect.

Regarding fabric selection - I sent Glenn an IG msg stating that I liked a brown jacket that I saw and that spurred the conversation. From ideation to purchase it was ~10 business days, and that includes the time for me to ship my existing jacket to Glenn and UPS to deliver.

Bought a Brown Uni stripe OCBD yesterday from Glenn. I’ve never seen brown before. Checked the trad shops - J Press, Mercer, OConnells and nothing. Not even Drakes with their rainbow of colors has brown. Figured it’s worth mentioning here if someone wants to collect them all.

Glenn made a trip to DC September for MTM fittings. I got measured for a sportcoat and a few shirts. For the sportcoat, I picked a Moon Shetland tweed in a nice green. Shirts were mix of OCBDs and spread collared shirts.

I also picked up this amazing chunky turtleneck:

Oatmeal Scottish Lambswool Rollneck Sweater

The rollneck sweater, or more commonly known Stateside as the turtleneck, has been on a rollercoaster of trendiness, chicness and sometimes perceived foolishness for decades. At Junior's, we're firmly rooted on the rollneck sweater being one of the most comfortable and handsome pieces of...

Glenn came back this week for final fitting, and the sportcoat and shirts turned out great. Sportcoat will go back to Philly with Glenn for surgeon cuffs (he wanted to wait on the first order to ensure we had the sleeves right before cutting holes)

I'll try to get some fit pics, when I receive the final product back from Glenn.

Overall I would echo what's already been stated, Glenn is great to chat with, low key, methodical, and has a great eye (fabrics, colors, patterns etc) I would recommend.

Anyone have fit pics of tailoring from Juniors?

have a couple of shirts and a pair of RTW trousers and love them…interested to see/hear more about your jacket? I know it’s early, but how did it feel compared to your Armoury pieces?
