I would also say that it is labelled about 2 sizes too big.

Whilst I'm at it, a little moaning about the sizes in general:
DBF seems to be generally a bit inconsistent with their sizes in my experience. My standard size in DBF used to be L, sometimes even XL would work. Now everything goes from S (parisian raglan) to M (mock neck) to L (camp collar shirt). My TTS is M.
In addition, 48 is translated on the website as L instead of M and other sizing charts are completely missing (e.g. Crew Neck). All this makes online shopping a bit frustrating, especially if you want to avoid returns.

I think a little more consistency would be helpful (a 50 which is intended to be tighter and 50 which is is intended to bei oversized should both fit the same person, just with different silhouettes).

Sorry for complaining. Apart from that, DBF has been one of my favourite mens wear shops for years - if not my favourite.
Thank you for your feedback. Please do not apologize for giving feedback. We have had this on our plan for some time, it stems from the new fits having been more and more ample over time, while having many carryovers in line with our "Editions" concept. We are now working on the Edition for Fall 2025 so it always takes time. Thank you again !

Hello everyone, one of my good friends opened a clothing store last October, called "Les Stockistes" (only Made in France brands, such as De Bonne Facture, Le Minor, Heschung...). Here are some pictures made for this winter season, I thought you might enjoy seeing De Bonne Facture in action in our beautiful city of Toulouse, France.

If you want to see more pictures, here is the IG profile of the store: https://www.instagram.com/les_stockistes?igsh=eXA4ODYwdTI1ZXU1

They also have an Eshop called Les Traits Français, shipping worldwide.

I'm not the shop owner nor do I work there, I am just a big clothing enthousiast and I love his project and I think it deserves more light !

Picked up this jacket in the current sale specifically due to the styling in these photos. It's a fantastic piece, thought I do wish the hood had a drawstring or was otherwise adjustable in some way. It's pretty massive and I find myself wrestling with it more than I'd like.

I'm honored that you did. I really enjoyed participating to this, we will do another one for SS25, we already have plenty of ideas of styles and places in Toulouse !
Edit : I just realized that picture links are broken, I'll upload the pictures asap !
