I'll throw this in here also. I have a shirt jacket here from Polo Ralph Lauren Features: -3 patch pockets -swelled edges -3-2.5 roll -extremely lightweight(no padding at all) -single vent -55% linen/45% cotton -great for summer -khaki-a little darker than in the pictures Measurements: shoulder:20" Length:30.5" Sleeve:24" Chest:22.5-23" Tagged Large but I think it would best fit a 42-44

Also, for everyone else's benefit, my measurements are:

Jacket: 38/40 R/S
Waist: 34
Inseam: 27/28
Shirt: 15.5-16-32/33
Shoes: 9/9.5D
Casual: M

***Please note that I generally have to have everything tailored as my extremities are invariably too short (at least the ones that don't count ). So don't let my exact measurements prevent you from offering trades, as I'm willing to have items tailored - within reason of course.

Wow. You and I are very similar in size except I am more 40-41 S in jacket size and 8.5-9m in shoe size.

I have some stuff to trade for sure - lots of ties and some jackets and shirts. When I get a few minutes, I will take some pictures and see what happens. Great idea - I hope it works well.

Any of you who come across great 40 R-S suits/jackets with 23" arms and 28" inseams, please think of us.

Nataku, Here are the photos of the Zegna sportcoat. Measurements are: Length (bottom of collar): 31.25" + 1.5" Shoulder (seam to seam straight across): 20" Chest (pit to pit): 22" Waist: 21" Sleeve Outseam (shoulder seam to cuff): 25.5" + 1.75" Sleeve Inseam (pit seam to cuff): 16.5" + 1.75" Ventless, canvassed, 3 roll 2 placket, non-functional sleeves, 51% silk - 49% cashmere. What you got for a trade? I'd be interested in a jacket close enough to my size. I've been looking for something in blue (windowpane, houndstooth, herringbone - something interesting) as most of my jackets are variations on the same browns, tans, greys, and greens. I'd also consider shoes, shirts, pants, etc. Basically whatever, I'm game. (TRADED)

Jacket looks very nice. I have a couple nice Corneliani shirts in your size as well as a Tomer Rothschild (Chicago) bespoke shirt that's mint. Let me know

Nat, Trade for shirts sounds good. Can you post/send pictures? We should have started this thread ages ago.

My camera is terrible at pictures with flashes, but here's so you get a general idea. In the photos they both look the same, but in person the colors differ. 1st is a grayish lavender 15 (euro 38) 2nd is a true lavender 15.5 (euro 39) ** If the 1st is too small, I have a 15.5 (39) tan Cornelliani hanging around somewhere I can try and dig out. No pic of the TR right now (it's at my office), but I'll snap a pic if you're interested tomorrow. Here are details from the F/S thread: Bespoke/MTM Tomer Rothschild of Chicago hand-tailored shirt. ***Slim Fit*** . Split yoke, gorgeous pearl buttons....all the goodies you need on a dress shirt. No size (it's custom fitted). 16 1/2" neck. Make Offer http://www.tomerrothschild.com/ - Flaw: Small seperation of fabric where the collar attaches to the shirt body. This is under the collar at the back of the shirt and is not noticeable unless you have the collar flipped up (see photo). - Previous owner's initials embroidered onto the yoke. Again, not noticeable unless you're not wearing the shirt. Chest: 21 1/2" Neck: 16 1/2" Shoulders: 19" Sleeve: 23" Waist: 19" Length: 32"

Send me a photo of the TR shirt tomorrow if you can, but it looks like this will work - the jacket for the 3 shirts.

NICE.
I like this so far.

Sounds like a win-win! I love Golden Fleece - it's on my wishlist if anyone finds one in 42R...

I might be interested in that one.

I probably should have said from the outset that the 15 corneliani will definitely be too small.
