Very cool linen jeans there. And pink too!

@luxire would you be able to source cloth from these folks: http://www.herbalfab.com/index.html

They have some nice looking naturally dyed fabrics. I'm particularly intrigued by their natural indigo dyed denim.

Or perhaps something similar.

Sorry to spam the board, but would love some feedback on my fit here. Here's what I think I should do, but please tell me if you think differently:

Pants:

• Decrease back rise from 17.5" to 17" or 16.75".
• Decrease front rise from 10.5" to 10.25".
• Increase "back" of thigh measurement by .125" if possible to get it to drape better across the seat.
• Decrease knee measurement from 9.5" to 9".
• Decrease waist measurement (slightly loose) by .25".

Shirt:

• Decrease cuff from 8" to 7.75", remove watch allowance (maybe make right cuff 8").
• Slim hips by .25" to get rid of "hippy" look when untucked.
• Remove .5" of fabric from lower back (but not overall midsection).

I would wash and wear a few times before soliciting advice on changes for the next shirt.

agree with washing a few times first. Also, pictures are far too small to be able to tell much about the fit. Only comment I can make is that the back waist of the shirt should be reduced by much more than 0.5"; you may have increase the front waist measurement so that overall it is not too tight at the waist. Try pinning it yourself to get an idea of how much you need.

That's for Linc isn't it?

Okay, thanks guys!

I'm not sure why the pictures were small, I selected large.. I'll wash a few times and try again this weekend maybe.

The pants were based on measurements from a very well-fitting existing pair, so the adjustments are reasonably minor. The shirt is where I definitely need some work done, particularly in the back. I like the way the top block fits, though. I agree with @breakaway01 in that the lower back may need to be reduced by more than 0.5," but I didn't consider that it might require a total adjustment in the opposite direction. These are things I don't think of, so I appreciate the feedback!

Thanks again and I apologize for spamming the board!

Mid blue Brisbane Moss chambray

Do you like it more after you washed it?

Less Oxford-y?

Yes. I'd say it's not at all oxfordy in fact.

So when Luxire posted that a Navy Striped Jersey fabric was available I had an idea to create a take on the famous James Dean Breton jersey










There is speculation as to whether his is a standard breton boatneck with a Long sleeve polo underneath. I think it is a shawl neck breton and that is what I instructed Luxire to make.

Received it today and am impressed with how well they executed.
