So, I send the team this awful iphone scribble of what I have in mind, which is essentially a Western/rancher version of the FW21 shearling SB coat. The lines are repositioned/reshaped seams to bring in swooping Western seams (à la Clint), remove the through buttons on the (now Western style) flap pockets, and also lengthen the coat a tad. Two weeks later, and they've developed it for us. I already now this is going to be my favorite coat of FW 22

I know the measurements can be deceiving due to the thickness so are these more Clint sized or the usual Valstar of definitely size-up?

TTS for those - take your Clint size, not your Valstarino size. Paging @Newcomer and @sood for their takes

Speaking of Valstar shearling, brown and tan aviator in a 52 is still available. If I didn't already own a similar version I'd snap it up. I encourage anyone considering it to go for it.

Agreed, love mine. It’s the easiest thing to just throw on, and look like a million bucks. Somehow worth the price tag, haha

Not sure on the length as it seems really long (longer than the KS traveler?). Am I missing something or overthinking it?

So, here is a picture I shared recently. This is the 52. If you are wearing heavy knitwear, then I would say go with a size up. If you are wearing it with a shirt or lighter knitwear, then go TTS. Heavy knitwear, in my opinion, can mess with sleeve length, and make sleeve lengths too short. Inverse also applicable. @gdl203 posted a picture recently with lots of layers and I thought the shearling looked a little on the small side (can’t find it on phone). Don’t know if you can go wrong either way though to be honest.

Not that long at all. 2-3" shorter than the Ikiji belted coat and pretty much same as a traveler coat in the same size. Traveler coat is a short-ish coat too. This is meant to be a proper knee length shearling coat, which is so hard to find.

This is what +10cm would look like on @Newcomer

I love the Valstar team !

We tell them "we had a dream of a coat like ... " and they're like "let's make it just for you guys"

aching for a DB Shearling Coat with dark brown or green shearling

I feel strange with all this coat talk while wearing this to go out.

@45bur @1969 how did you guys size? TTS or up one (Clint or vastarino size)?

Glad you were talking about the coat when you added on that extra 10cm.

@45bur @1969 how did you guys size? TTS or up one (Clint or vastarino size)?

I took a 52. I'm a 52 in Clint but can wear a 50 and wear a 54 in Valstarino for a relaxed fit. I wear a 50 in most EU sizing, and a 41 in Iglese dress shirts.

EDIT: to clarify, I'm talking about the aviator shearling, not the ranch coat.

Same size as Clint. The shearling fits more generously imo

 

[mythage]

Thanks guys I think 52 would be too big for me.

This reflects my sizing to a T. I took a 50 in the Clint but could definitely wear a 52.
