The site also has a fit pics and inspirations section that I have used a lot.
Thanks--I hadn't noticed that on the NoMan's site until now! I've been appreciating the mannequin fits on IG for a while. Whomever is responsible for those is a subtle genius.

I have one from last year. I went TTS. FWIW; I am a normal 52. I have 52 Clint and 54 in the Valstarino (per many people's advice). I have the vest in 52 and it fits well.
That’s good to know. I’m a 50 in the Valstarino and 48 in the Clint and have been wondering if the 48 vest would work. Sounds like it will!

based on measurements from Valstar site Valstarino is smaller in chest, so it seems normal or "correct" to got 1 size smaller in vest. I am also looking at coats. So it seems I might fit vest in 50 and coat in 50. Luckily there is no "shoulders" in vest and coats have raglan sleeves.

Like others I sized up for the Valstarino in 50 and just received the Jackson corduroy vest in 48 which fits TTS

I’m a solid 52 and did not size up for my valstarino. Fits slim but when I went up to 54, it was too big all over. Just sharing a data point.

Slight change in pieces from last fit.
Ikiji pants, Jameison sweater courtesy of an SF member, IM beanie.
Then magically my new Clint arrived.

On the other hand, I'm a slim 52 and got a 54 Valstarino and it's still extremely fitted 🤷‍♂️

DBF had a small trunk show in Oakland and man, I love her stuff. Will you guys be receiving another drop and can we expect anything in the Boucle Wool?

Standard & Strange mailing list falling down on the job. Or my careful reading of emails. Must be the former.
