Great combination of shirt, jacket, and tie.  Can you provide details on the shirt, specifically the material and the type of collar.  I'll be ordering a few shirts from SM, one being a pale blue dress shirt similar to yours.

You might need to ask Rick about the color, but I believe the collar is full spread.

We just posted up some Midnight Navy Hopsack Trousers if anyone is interested:

On the full canvass issue, is it possible to take it a step beyond? Something like a 3-tier approach:

1. Half canvass

2. Full canvass

3. Fully handmade. Including fully hand padded lapels/chest. I'm talking Savile Row / Oxxford quality.

Tom Ford also offers a handmade option through its MTM program, but with a 50% upcharge.

I'd have to ask them about fully handmade. I don't think they are set up to go to that level. I know with full canvas there is quite a bit of handwork included.

Any other jackets going to have matching pants available? If not, is it possible to get a "custom" pair of pants from one of the jacket fabrics?

Nothing planned right now. Which Jacket were you looking at? We may have fabric available, depending on the cloth.

Hi Rick,

Will there be unpadded, unstructured jackets coming up in the near future? I want to buy from S&M but the shoulders don't work for me. Not enough space in the shoulder cap which causes divots.

I'm hoping unpadded shoulders will solve that, plus I just like unstructured jackets.

8.5 cm, so about 3 3/8"

Hi Rick,

Those new ties look really sharp. I'd like to pick up a few but 3.4" ties tend to look a bit too wide on my 5'10" 150lbs frame. Any plans on releasing more ties that are not quite as wide (around 3")?


Thanks

Their older ties are slimmer, 8cm I believe.

I'm considering trying some custom shirts. Would anyone be interesting in any 15.5 contemporary shirts? Oxfords in basically all colors and maybe some others. PM and let me know, if I find someone interested it might push me to try custom again.

36S Contemporary fit ^

Should I get a 38S Contemp or a 38S Slim Fit? Or stick with the 36S Contemp?

Suit is way too short. Suit is too dark to say if you should go with a size up. But you're not a short in SM suits at least

 

[SJR3]

I would definitely go up a size. And I agree, you're probably better off in a regular length. (Although going to a larger size will of course mean the jacket is longer even if you stick with S, so perhaps you'd be okay in that regard.)

Thanks for the feedback guys. Should I get a 38S/R in Slim fit or in the Contemporary fit?

The suit in the pictures is a 36S Contemporary fit. The length is 27.8 inches.

The 38S Slim/Contempt. Fit length is 28.1.

The 38R Slim/Contempt. Fit length is 29.3/29.5.

 

[losrockets]

I'd consider the 38R slim.

When I asked about unstructured I meant for suits, as I know you carry sport coats like that
