Hi all - I haven't posted here for a long time but recently moved to London and was hoping to get some recommendations for bespoke trousers in London. I did a quick search on the forum and nothing reasonable came up.
I am a bit hard to fit with ready wear pants in general (some may laugh but the only thing that seems to work is Bonobos' athletic cut), so I tried using Pommella for bespoke. The experience with them has been quite mixed unfortunately, and they just haven't been able to get the rise right (and somehow don't seem to be actually altering it despite multiple fittings where it's the clear problem). I'll chalk it up for now to just simply trying to manage the process in NYC relative to Italy without too much in-person fittings / interactions. However, I'm much more keen on just going to a local place where I can be in-person frequently.
So with all that said, I would welcome the forum's recommendations here, especially those of you with firsthand experience. I live pretty close to Savile Row so could easily go wherever there, but happy to go anywhere else in the city too - wherever you think best.
Thanks very much in advance.
