Question: how's the jumbo shirts fitting compared to the other cuts? Thanks


The Jumbo shirt fits large and loose. Im usually an XL in OL shirts, tried the L and the XL in the jumbo. The L fit fine, but I got the feeling that it perhaps was not meant to be sized down. The XL was very long.

i bought a pair of the black chinos in L/50, and Im usually a 34. So these are more or less true to size .

Has anybody picked up/tried on the soft wool classic coat from this season?
Every store has different measurements, I'm usually an XL/52 in tops, but some places (like Unionmade) make it seem like this coat is bigger than usual? Is there anybody that can verify that?

Likewise here with a fit question, has anyone tried on the 3b soft black canvas suit this aw collection?
And if so could you compare it with last season's navy crepe suit because i have that one and know how it fits,

The 1950s and 1940s shirts have different fits, 1940s has slimmer sleeves and a more even hem, there are a few other differences...
The main problem is that the shirt sizes vary between seasons, like I bought a 1940s denim shirt from 2012/2011 and it was 3 inches longer than my other 1940s,
I would suggest measuring your current shirts and comparing to measurements online using multiple sights.
I can measure some of mine if you would like also

Anyone remember this jacket when it was on Mr. Porter? Did it actually retail for $1,380? How much did it go on sale for eventually? $1,380 seems awfully steep for a wool bomber. Trying to decide if I should buy it. Any other thoughts on the piece?

I'm positive there must be something wrong. 380$ would make sense, but not 1380$.
Talking about Our Legacy, someome listed the floral shirt in xs, someone has to buy it, it's really dope

I think there's something off, too. The seller claims the jacket was a gift from an aunt. The aunt bought it for retail at this price. I could have sworn it eventually went on sale for much less, perhaps even $138. I was wondering if this is a photoshop job with an added 0 or if it really started at this price and then dropped steeply when it didn't sell.

How do you prefer trousers to be finished?

  • Plain hem

  • Cuffed (1.5 inches or less)

  • Cuffed (more than 1.5 inches)

  • No preference, as long as the proportions work
