Can we discuss the value proposition of Luxire and alternatives?
I have ordered from Luxire before (trousers only) and had good experienes so far. However, for named mill fabrics, eg. Minnis flannel, the prices seem to be very high. What do we think of Luxire's value in this regard? How about alternatives?
