@Dino19 I found by going TTS that the BDU jacket fit a bit big. I probably could have gone down a size but the fit is pretty good in the chest and that's where I find stuff will get tight if sized down too much.
After seeing some fits here it jogged my memory that I had a few more pieces of EG. I've got two bedfords, a CPO shirt and a Cinch Vest. The bedfords fit me like almost tailored pieces and the cinch vest is nice and snug.

I'll try layering and closing the waist buttons. Mine is NYCO Ripstop so it probably needs some wear so it doesn't feel so tenty. There's a lot going on with this jacket in the details so I'm hoping to get it into the rotation on a regular basis.
Thanks & I cop one in my Bedford size too. Let's see how it goes .........

Snapped a quick shot of the f/w '16 olive vest from BlkBlu at the eye doc's the other day. This thing is so versatile and warm. If my wife asks, the answer is yes, it is totally part of the Real McCoys m-65 I came home with the other day.

Indeed it is. I went TTS. I'm a small in everything EG, Gitman, Epaulet, etc. I'm a fan. This thing layers well both under and over Bakers and Bedfords. Can be worn under a leather jacket. Can stand alone with a tee shirt. It's warm without becoming suffocating. The shawl collar turns up nicely when it's cold out, but also stays folded when you want.

What's your height/weight?

Thoughts on this EG Bedford Wool Serge fit? The body feels a bit loose and baggy. I'm not sure if that's how it's supposed to fit. The sleeve length is a little bit long, but can be tailored or folded. This was a size small. I don't have any other pictures and they didn't have a size extra small in stock

Put a sweater under it, tailor the sleeves. Shoulder seems ever so slightly too big, but embrace the drapey-ness.

It looks fine. If you size down to XS it looks like you won't be able to layer anything under it.

Great! Good to know. This was my first time ever wearing an Engineered Garment's piece. I think I will go for it! Thank you both for your help

Anyone pick up this year's bedford in herringbone? I got a size small and it fits kinda slim, pretty tight in torso, short length and also sleeves. Don't really like the slim EG look that's featured in some shops (Need Supply, for example). Prolly need a size M (pm me if you wanna trade). Funny because I don't remember bedfords to fit so tight but haven't really had EG in a couple of years. Have a few more bedfords from previous seasons on the way so I hope they work out

Can someone in here confirm that the Tab Collar Shirt (of earlier seasons) is fitting smaller than let´s say a 19century BD?
I think I might have sold one for that reason, but am not that sure

Now I would really like to buy some floral ones...

Happy New Year to everyone!
