    Update on the stretch denim. I exchanged the slim fit for the contemporary but it looks like the hem opening is only 13" - over an inch smaller than what was advertised on the size chart. This makes them skinnier than my levis 502 which I am looking to upgrade from. I really like the material...

    Well, I suppose that means I'll have to try out the non-stretch. My only problem with the non-stretch is that regular denim can get quite uncomfortable due to the coarseness. But, we'll have to see. And yes, the skinny trend is definitely dying off (for men, at least). Unfortunately, it's being...

    Damn. That sounds like the same experience as me. If I remember, I'll update this forum whenever I receive a contemporary fit. Thank you!

    Can anyone weigh in on the stretch denim, perhaps? I ordered a slim size 28 rinse wash. The size chart says that the hem opening is 14+" but the openings are actually 12". They are essentially skinny jeans that are almost too tight to even fit my narrow little legs into. I don't know if it's...

    Hi guys. Quick question. Does anybody know how to preserve the roll on the button down collars? Starting to run into the problem of the roll flattening out and I'm unsure of what to do.

    There's no doubt that it's a well constructed garment. As far as functionality is concerned, it's probably the best piece of outerwear I've ever owned. My issue is 3 fold: 1) There is an excessive use of down feathers which makes me look like marshmallow man from ghostbusters when I zip it up...

    Lanificio Bottoli. Thoughts on the quality of the fabrics?

    So the size chart is correct, then. It just seemed odd to me. Regardless, thank you for the reply!

    Hi everyone. Quick question for those that have experience with this. Looking to buy a shirt that is sold out in my normal neck size. Thinking about sizing up in the neck but I noticed that the other dimensions (chest, waist, shoulder) are considerable larger, according to the size chart. Can...

    Was considering Meermin but ended up going with Jay Butler in the dark brown suede because of the shorter heel (personal preference). Anyway, looking dapper, my man. Loving the trousers.

    5'7" 120lbs, size 34 Slim for reference. Not a problem. The second to last pic shows how breathable it is. I personally love high twist so that's great for me, and I also tend to run hot in sport coats. Mostly unlined and mostly unstructured. Hope this helps, and excuse the dirty mirror.
