I dunno I went 46 in this seasons richard suit and its perfect. My rule of thumb I found that anything slouchy (dip dyes, richards, lounge pants, flight pants) size down and anything tailored or bombers TTS.

So you sized down? You're a 48 normally? And you are talking about the long coat or the jacket? Or is it exactly the same cut, just longer?

Just received the hooded jacket from ssense. The colour is much better in person, very glad that I got it.

To add to the confusion, I sized up on the Richard jacket and I'm happy with it. Almost happy enough to grab the light gray suit too...

TTS fit fine too and would probably suit the average person, but I wouldn't want to size down. I've fully embraced loose, sleazy, loungewear.

Yeah the colour is really good. I don't know how Ssense made this bomber look so meh.
And mercurials are perfect with dusters. Hi tops with a narrow shaft are definitely the way to go, bballs were ok but a little bulky so I might buy some white tournaments.
