SPIER & MACKAY - Official Affiliate Thread

Yes, I am not a big fan of the sorting order on the new website. It has become quite difficult to see what's actually new.

I feel lost on the site, but I thought that was just me. Thank goodness Rikky (the owner) said he’s in the middle of redesigning the site. (Edit: Rikky said they just launched the newly designed site.)

Another thing I couldn’t find on the site: Are the jacket sleeve buttons functional?

 

[CanadaCal]

No. Buttons not functional

Does anyone know if they sell waistcoats? I’m looking for a well-fitting, well-made grey waistcoat for winter layering, à la Daniel Craig in Girl with the Dragon Tatoo.

Thanks, Cal. Maybe if I went to TO for a custom suit they’d sew some in?

Yes should be an option with a custom suit

 

[Burzan]

Order placed!

Me too. Grabbed the green gunclub and a pair of $40 chinos. Really want to see more pictures of the brown donegal.

I would love one with casual full spread collar that's unfused and unlined (OTR versions will probably come with some lining).

We have to set the "recommend" sort order by item position. The jackets will get resorted later today. But other than that, you can sort "new collection" to see the newest to oldest, or check new arrivals.

Oh yes, that is exactly what I am doing -- I just prefer the sort order from the old website where things are simply stacked (latest item added to the front). I am sure this can be fixed easily, but now "new collection" shows VBC hopsack - slubs - moleskin (?) - tweeds and so on.

Having slim and contemporary fit together is also a bit confusing at times, since the sorting order is messed up between the two fits. We could put slim/contemporary selection into one page I think?

These are the settings of Magento, the backend we are working with. Still some fixing to do.

Well, it didn't stop me from ordering at least. Any updates on the incoming denim/oxford (and flannel, I hope) shirts?

 

[afterthesuit]

Yesterday I was refreshing every 10 minutes to see the new Neapolitan jackets up on the site... now I'm refreshing every 10 minutes to see if my order has shipped . I am an impatient child.

 

[tnjed]

Some flannel is live, too.

The brown donegal is the jacket I have been waiting for. Since this is my first S&M sport coat, I ordered the 40R in Contemporary and Slim just to make sure I get the right fit.
