Do the alpaca pocket sweaters stretch out much with wear?

Mine arrived today and fits well but is just a little more snug than I'd like.

It will relax a little bit. I know for sure because I bought one in gray at 30% off or whatever a month or so ago. One in turquoise arrived today (same size) and it definitely feels tighter than the one I've broken in a bit. Depends how snug it is on you, I guess. Initially, I thought I could have sized up, but now I'm glad I didn't.
blazer coat came in, got a 36 and fit is spot-on like the rest of his outerwear (i took an XS in this season's pocket sweater for ref.)

sleeves slightly long (like .5cm) but not enough that i'd get it altered.
Any room for layering, or is it pretty slim? Such a nice piece, but I'm a no-kop diet for a while...

I tried it on with a pocket sweater from this season on and it fit well, not sure if you could do the whole thermal+ocbd+chunky knit though.

My experience with the hats were that the crown was way too shallow. This was exaggerated by the short brim. More so, because of the shallow crown the hat just looked really flat. FWIW I tried the FW12 suede cap. It takes a particular head shape to fit the cap right IMO.

fw13 peacoat arrived today (50% off!). the navy melange is nice and thick with a soft hand. really solid horn buttons throughout. arms are slim, but this coat is warm enough that i won't need to wear a chunky/thick knit.

hopefully i can wear this piece a couple times...it feels like spring already with 70s in the forecast the rest of this week.

I got a size medium wool aviator, but I think a small would be better for me. Does anyone want to trade? :lookaround:

Just got my moss field coat - I like it a lot. The material feels good and sturdy, and the fit is nice for a skinny 6 ft dude.

I remember someone saying that the moss looked a lot like khaki, but I don't think so. It's definitely a moss-like color, pretty unique and makes me like the jacket even more.

I love the ervell store.

Order a quilted hoody during the sale and drunk me decides I should get the wool aviator later that night. Throw in a comment that they can combine shipping with my other order.

Find this on my package today:

I also feel that the jacket is cut a size big. But the wool is really nice and drapes well so it's growing on me. Will look great with turquoise pocket sweater that's on the way.

Eff. I keep near-missing each pair of Ervell selvedge jeans on Ebay. I really want a pair badly.

I may be interested. What is the exact waist measurement on those?

aligned, 42cm. I don't expect them to stretch much more so..

still not a 100% sure I wanna get rid of them, actually. they're perfect jeans but just a tad small. ugh

edit2: fwiw the lightwash jeans in the same size are easily 44cm after stretching, so to whoever was saying there was barely any difference...

42 is basically a 33, right? Did they stretch to that? How wide are they at the bottom hem and the thigh (just curious)?
