Default A Cut Above Uniform

Hey guys, I just bought some shirts from them. Thinking about the pants if I like the shirts. Anyone tried them? I like the fact that they are machine washable. How’s the fit compared to M&H and Twinhill pants?

Not sure but their customer service told me they won't have pants that match M&H color until summer.

Glad I posted. I’ll wait then. I haven’t tried the M&H pants on yet but it sounds like they run tight.

I had to add 3" to my normal waist size for them to fit. I like their shirts a lot, hoping the pants will also be an upgrade.

FWIW, the M&H pants are machine washable. I haven't any issues. I wash them with cold water on a delicate cycle and dry low. Rarely even need much pressing afterward. I get my shirts washed and pressed by my local cleaners for just over $2 each because I can't be bothered with them. I will probably be ordering some shirts from A Cut Above though because the M&H shirts are pretty abrasive on the sides of my kneck.

That's BS. My 32" Costco pants fit my 35" waist just fine. Why can't M&H get onboard with vanity sizing.

I am a fan of A Cut Above shirts. They fit well and come out of the laundry ready to wear. They also pack well for a commuter who prefers to travel incognito.

A Cut Above has AA material that matches the old Twin Hills. It’ll be a few months before they have the sharkskin material that matches the new M&H crap.

I ordered the whole A Cut Above uniform (jacket and a few pairs of pants) because I couldn’t get M&H stuff to fit and I got tired of wearing a uniform that looked sloppy. I also like the current material better than the heavy M&H material and they have flat front pants. I’m happy with it. Fits well and true to size!

My M&H pants are baggy and fit poorly. Would be nice if they had a slim fit but they don’t.
