I recommend tightening that bracelet on your watch and wearing it behind your wristbone. Nice look elsewise.

just loosened it a couple months ago because it was too tight. Wrist would swell during the day. Think it looks kinda cool looser too, like a bracelet

All past seasons S&M, minus shoes and PS.

Yeah, I feel you on that. I find that my wrist swells a bit in the heat too, but usually I wear a leather strap which has some degree of stretching capacity, unlike steel. I'd say wearing it down that low looks fine with a more relaxed ensemble like that cotton jacket, but I'd be careful with a conservative suit.

Not my favorite SM suit, but I don’t think I ever feel cooler (not literally...there’s a fresco for that lol) than when I put this Solaro on.

Being cool is a mindset?

Anyone got an example pic of a custom shirt they’ve ordered to wear untucked?

 

[soto_nw]

I have not tried their custom offering but Vladimir Riche did a youtube unboxing of their custom shirts. Idk if it's helpful, but you can see more here - CUSTOM SHIRTS Unboxing (Spier & Mackay)


**Sorry, didn't notice OP asked for "untucked"

The sales this summer have finally let me try the side tab trousers and Neapolitan sport coats, and I’m very happy with both. I got two of the sondrio sport coats in yesterday and decided to play around with some fun combos. All S&M ‘fits besides the shoes, the pants obviously need to see my tailor for hemming, I just don’t need them very often rn. I had been buying contemp 42L jackets and shortening sleeves but the neo 42 might not need any work at all.

Edit: I did cave and buy the “light brown” (cream? Off white?) sondrio after asking about it a week or so ago.

Anyone know the translation between Charles Tyrwhitt’s collars and Spier & MacKay’s? Is it fair to say the following, to the extent that there is a correlation?

CT​	S&M​
Classic	C1, Classic semi-spread
Spread	C2, Classic spread
Extreme spread	C7, Classic full spread; or C8, Extreme spread

I am trying to figure out which @spiermackay collars will work for me, based on my previous CT collars.

The light brown looks so good. I'm regretting not getting it! I read more about cream colored jackets and now I want one.

I can't seem to find if this has been mentioned before....
This season's cords, I know the side tab are more of a needle cord wale with around 12 wales per inch.

Are there any cords out now that aren't side tabs that are the same wale? Or are they all a wider wale?

Credit due where it's due.

I've ragged on S&M's MTM program for a while for shirts, but I think they finally got it right for the measurements I gave.

I was sent a replacement fit shirt, and they nailed the collar, asymmetrical sleeve lengths, wider hips, and even my request for deeper/taller cuffs on my shirt.

My camera sucks, but sure.

Shirt on the left is recent MTM with deeper cuffs, shirt on the right is an OTR shirt from 2016.

While I am still on the subject of collars, what is the closest @spiermackay collar to the one Richard Anderson is wearing in the attached image? Classic spread (C2) perhaps?
