Can anyone comment on the blue dobby material that's available in MTO? Does it feel/look very formal? I'm curious how it compares to an oxford, or maybe a royal oxford.

@spiermackay is the new polo sizing for this year based on last year's short sleeve or long sleeve polos (or were those both cut the same)? Ordered large long-sleeve last year, do I go medium or stay large this time around for the short sleeves?

love it! i literally did this exact outfit a few weeks ago. For practical reasons, i feel it worked wonders for the weird weather we've been having in Toronto

Yes, I'm wearing a short sleeve polo under a Donegal sport coat.

Anyone tried the premium oxford over the standard oxford cloth? Wondering what the key differences are, assume its a lighter more refined cloth, ive got a MTM shirt in the standard oxford and would still like that robustness.

@spiermackay Rick, does the Italian button down have any fusing? Typically Italians lightly fuse their collars, can this be requested

Fighting the work-from-home-slob urges every day. Spier red uni strip lightweight oxford and VBC medium grey suit from a few years back.

My tailor has ALL of my suit pants right now while we’re all locked down, so I’m forced to wear my suit jackets as orphans. No one can tell on the conference calls though

The premium oxford is a 2 Ply 80s/20's, compared to the single 40's/20's of the regular. It's more refined, not much lighter. But there is a distinct difference if the feel/drape.

Collar lining, you can request in the notes. Ask for light fusing. But light unfused works as well with a softer look.

I got two OCBD's in the new blue premium. I really like over the standard brushed oxford. Would recommend.

Speaking of collars, will Cooper collars make it to RTW or MTO-only? If RTW, what's the plan the fabrics? Thanks.

MTM only for the foreseeable future.
