Searching Etsy (for tailoring)
I've been on eBay for a while and have a good set of search terms, focusing primarily on ivy-style tailoring (vintage Brooks Brothers, PRL, etc). While I've seen some great stuff on Etsy (https://www.etsy.com/shop/PlacidVintage), searching is generally pretty difficult - poor filtering options/categories etc...
Anyone have any advice for how to search Etsy more efficiently? Or if there are any other particularly good sellers for that sort of thing, that would also be good to know! Thanks!

i find etsy maddening to search on in general, but especially for tailoring as a lot of quality things are from defunct brands
i've been more successful searching by material (cotton/sack, wool, flannel, etc.) but generally default to ebay
I wonder if googling what you're looking for with "etsy" (or like whatever the google thing is to search for results from a specific website) in the search might help. I run into this issue too. It's impossible to search by size on there ime
