[MENTION=12087]SpierMackay[/MENTION] any chance of you rolling out a black tuxedo option in the near future?

Yep. working on expanding our formal offerings, BUT I don't have a solid timeline on that at the moment.

[MENTION=12087]SpierMackay[/MENTION] I received two polos today and they’re nice.

But, do you have any sense of how much I could expect them to shrink? They would be washed cold, hung to dry in my normal use. I don’t have much (read any) room for shrinkage with the fit, but I think a size up would be too billowy.

Thanks.

[MENTION=12087]SpierMackay[/MENTION] Congrats on the OCBDs. Picked up three in the Cont fit and they are perfect. Love the collar and fabric. Will there be a restock this spring? Would like some more but my size is all sold out.

[MENTION=12087]SpierMackay[/MENTION] I also have some shrinkage questions as my polos arrived yesterday as well. I believe you mentioned somewhere on SF that these new ones won't really shrink much at all, is that correct? I only ask because I'm 5'7" and it can be difficult for me to find polos that are long enough that I can wear them untucked or tucked. The new polos fit me great except in length where I wouldn't mind a little bit of shrinkage to get them into that sweet spot for me.

That being said, these things are great! I might be picking up one or two more down the road.

Normal Polos will shrink about 8%. These are treated with a technique called loop drying that limits the shrinkage. In a cold water wash and dryer, these will be about 5%. So for Example, the Medium has a back length of 27.5 inches from BoC. After washing/drying in a dryer will shrink 1 3/8" and settle about 26 1/8" a good, untucked length.

If you cold wash and hang to dry it will be less. Around 3%.

Thanks. We have some restock on the way. Any particular colour/size?

[MENTION=12087]SpierMackay[/MENTION] How slim/fitted are the polo's?

Great! Looking for 16/34 in white, light blue, and pink university stripe. Also, if you ever produced a solid pink in the future, I would purchase one or two.

I would consider them a slim fit. If you are looking for more of a traditional fit, size up one.

I'm 5'7" 170 (yes chubby) and wear a medium.

[MENTION=9190]Pepetito[/MENTION] I'm a slim 135lbs but have a somewhat pronounced chest and went with Small. If it helps I wear a 36s contemporary only because there isn't enough room in the chest on the slims for me.
