As in, 0c/32f? I wear mine at that temperature all the time, with just a thick wool jumper underneath, and am very warm. Once it gets closer to 0F then all bets are off.

Yeah, 0 degrees celsius.
Hmm maybe it was windy then or it had to do with humidity or something, because I wasn't warm enough with a tee, ervell sweater and mohair scarf.

Well, I don't know which you have - as @gdl203 noted, Casentino is pretty warm.

i have a couple of MH and MHL knits from FW14, the MHL are worth it on sale, the shetland wool is just not in the same class as the merino/cashmere blend of the MH saddle necks. The XL saddleneck fit the same as a L MHL shetland knit, their website has measurements. Tried on the trousers at inventory in NYC and they fit big.

I was surprised by how big MH's trousers fit. I was skeptical, but small is indeed my size (33" waist).

Yeah, this is what I was getting at with my original question. By warmer, I meant any place that isn't Toronto.

Add me to the crew that picked up that blue margiela knit from the Mr P sale

That blue MMM sweater is funny. It was up last winter at 80% (I bought L and XL and returned the XL, even the L is a bit big) and then only at 70% off this summer and now it came back a 3rd time. I dunno if its the colour that turns people off (it's a really vibrant blue irl) but at $120 or whatever it is its a pretty obvious cop.

It fits big? I'm also usually between an L and XL but I went with the XL because the measurements looked better.

the measurements at mrporter seemed way off
especially the length

 

[ChetB]

Yeah seemed suspect so I bought a couple of sizes.

 

[OccultaVexillum]

It's one of those pieces that doesn't seem to have much difference between sizes (I also tried the M and couldn't tell a diff between the M and L) plus it's a really heavy but loose knit, so the weight of it kind of pulls it down. In all honesty I could've worn M, L or XL comfortably and I'm a solid XL with rare L or XXL mixed in.

Outside styleforum diesel is a very decent brand.

But since we are asian we only wear Saint Laurent and Balmain.
