I ordered my first suit with OW in January. I chose the 11oz gray twill suit and upgraded to a full-canvassed construction. What makes OW different is that not only they allow you to measure your body, but also your best fitting trousers and jackets which is often easier to do. We exchanged several email communications to clarify all the details. My suit was ready in about 4 weeks. It came carefully packed and fit me well straight from the box. The quality of the fabric was excellent and the craftsmanship was neat and precise. No alteration was needed! There are a couple of small details I really like: the pants were lined to the knee and the hem of the pants had a ribbon stitched to it. The ribbon is not visible from the outside because it extends beyond the hem just by a couple of millimeters, but it servers two important purposes: prevents the hem from wearing and adds extra weight to the hem, so your pants sit on your shoes better. Attaching the ribbon is apparently a European thing and tailors in America have hard time understanding it. When you try to explain what it is for and how to attach it they look at you like you are asking for a snow in the middle of July. I am glad Oliver Wicks puts the ribbon on without even being asked! Great quality, Oliver Wicks! I highly recommend this company. I am certainly plan on ordering more of their suits!
