Consider our arm twisted -- small version of our sample sale starts today!

It is true we wrote over a month ago that we'd be having our sample sale this weekend, and yes we've been rather mum on the subject since. In actuality we've been working diligently behind the scenes on a bigger-than-normal sale event that will be quite exciting when it finally can be announced.

We had no idea the populist furor we'd unleash by not sticking to our promises. The phone calls, the emails have pressured us into doing something sooner than later.

Simple solution:

50% off all remaining winter merchandise plus some selected shirts at the sweet $80 sample sale price!

Included:

Cashmere sweaters, flannel pajamas, wool and cashmere socks, scarves, gloves, pants, overcoats, winter suits and blazers, flannel and heavy twill shirts. Probably some other items we forgot to list. Of course a handful of sample sale shirts.

As always with our sales, we will do hems on pants and buttonholes on jackets/coats, but we'll refer you to a good outside tailor for all additional work. Also, as always, sale items are final sale, no refunds or exchanges. Cash and credit cards accepted, but not gift certificates or store credits.

Where: Both stores:

78 Greene Street between Spring and Broome (our new headquarters)

and

The Shops at the Plaza, 1 West 58th Street

When: Now through end of February

Hours: M-Sat 11-7; Sun 12-6

Any questions, please call us at 212-625-1620 (SoHo) or 212-832-1620 (Plaza).

If you'd been following us on Twitter, you'd already know this! Of all the new tech options, this is the version we think makes the most sense for fans of SSV, as we'll be breaking the quick news first on Twitter, while we're wordsmithing the email.

And as we mentioned above, we're still working on a bigger sale event that will hopefully be very exciting for everyone. Stayed tuned for updates!

(Sadly, we don't have enough stock to host the sale on our webstore simultaneously, but please keep checking for new arrivals and special offers.)

All the best,

The Groupe Seize sur Vingt family

Now is the time! Pre-Order our Spring/Summer Shirting Collection

Now is the time to plan your Spring and Summer wardrobe. Make sure you get exactly the shirts you want this year! It’s a great idea to pre-order since we usually only make between 30-60 shirts in any one fabric, and because of that, we often only get one or two in several sizes. If you pre-order early, we can make sure to make one (or as many as you want) just for you. But we’d have to know soon, since there is a real chance that someone else could reserve your size and once the final size run is cut, there’s no turning back!

Click here or the photo above to jump to a nice slideshow preview of all the Spring/Summer shirtings. Let us know what you want, either with a phone call to your favorite salesperson, or an email, or for the first time ever, you can place your pre-order online at our webstore at www.16sur20.com. And as always you can email us at nyc@16sur20.com with any questions or special requests. Note that a 50% deposit is required, and the price shown on the website is the deposit, with the full price shown in the top title.

Another reason this is a great opportunity is because for a very limited time, we're allowing you to choose the styling you want without needing to place a custom order (this is simply because we can more easily group orders in pre-production). Remember that none of these shirts have been made yet, so please be patient. If you act quickly, you might even get your shirts before our stores do! We'll be officially shutting off the pre-orders by February 28th, but some might pre-sell out earlier than that, especially in certain sizes.

Hope to see you (or hear from you) soon!
All the best,
The Groupe Seize sur Vingt Family
