    Wanted: ELMC windward black size 44 (maybe 46)

    As title says. I’m after a windward in black. Probably 44. 46 might be too big but worth a try. I’m in the UK.

    Well it’s still probably a bit snug for me. But I still want it!

    Thanks. Looks a bit different. Almost like the roping on a chain stitched hem

    The jacket in the middle - is the puckering on the zipper stitching from age or is it a construction thing?

    Is this the same jacket that all the speculation is about? Looks fine to me. Almost bespoke haha

    Honestly, measurements aside. I think if I wanted to, I could lay a jacket down and make it look like that. It says more about their poor photography and ability to make a jacket look like crap. Look at the way the sleeves are bent over. For clarity, I don’t like the jacket at all. There have...

    Ok. I thought I saw you making the same point over. I apologise for that if I got it wrong. I will gladly admit if I make a mistake. The rest of you points are pretty weak though.

    You’ve said it many times already. And the “proof” that you use to evidence it is laughable. I’m not talking about the science of sleeve length, you are one one who went as far as making montage images with the scale bars. Not me. I’m just pointing out that it is ridiculously unsound. The...

    Marc, your picture comparison is extremely unscientific and honestly means nothing. I mean: you think it is out of proportion. We got it first time. Why keep repeating it?

    As an observer, I felt compelled to engage in conversation…. I’m not the person making claims against individuals. It is clear to me what himel and aero mean by bespoke. And that is not the same as what Savile row bespoke tailoring defines as bespoke. Both himel and aero offer custom made...

    And there are dozens upon dozens of threads here describing the process for aero of course. Himel is far less well described here. You left that out. Exactly my point No, this is my point again. It is a weak accusation that in my opinion as an observer does not stand up to scrutiny.

    The overwhelmingly most discussed brand on this forum is aero - so if you misunderstood what they offer, I would be extremely surprised. Especially going back to the days when I first joined here. The fact that you pulled out for other reasons doesn’t meant your misconception would not have...

    If you make an incorrect assumption based on the word and the marketing, then at some point before handing over money, I presume your mistake was corrected. Many people misinterpret or make incorrect assumptions based on adverts, marketing etc. It just shows their naivety and ignorance. The...

    …I just looked at his website. The language used are not different to other makers to me. Best leather, (some of the) finest craftsmen etc… I don’t see a claim of being ‘the only one to offer mtm’. But I did not look that hard. Same as with aero, a simple google search revealed the use of...

    Of course it is nonsense. That’s marketing. If you don’t like a company’s marketing practices, don’t buy their goods. It’s easy. Accusing them of fraud is a different thing. Himel would argue that his process is different (he can make a claim to back it up), and it will be different to other...

    Honestly I think there is some confusion here. Bespoke is an old English work adopted by tailors to indicate that some cloth was ‘bespoken’ to a customer. The Savile row tailors evolved this use to describe the process by which they make suits - bespoke tailoring. They would argue that only...
