Yup

This is beyond tempting...

Definitely a no-brainer if you're a 40R I would say.

Eh, trying to save up for some new sweaters for Fall. Plus I'm a bit concerned about the true color. Think it might be a bit too close to mid-grey to pair with mid-grey flannels?

Hmm possibly. Can't see it being "Camel" as the seller has listed. More of a muted beige. Will let you know once it's arrived.

Some of the pictures make it look like a dusty brown, which would be ideal. However, the closer-up pictures make it appear to be a mid grey with flecks of browns and muted greens. A cool color and fabric looks great nonetheless, but the more I think about it the more nervous I get about how it will pair with odd trousers.

 

I usually wear a 40, but the 55cm is scaring me off a little since that would measure over 43".  Am I thinking about that wrong?  It's a great looking jacket.

It does seem slightly generous for a 40R but that could be the way he has measured it.

Corneliani is usually quite consistent sizing wise from my experience.

Very tempting indeed the Corneliani jacket, but I'm afraid it could big in the chest (or wrong measurements). The Drop 7 means it should be pretty slim though. I bought a Corneliani 50It Drop7 this summer which fits very nicely. Similar jackets size 50 drop 6 were huge for me...

Doesn't help that the model could possibly be wearing a size too large for them - the sleeve width looks huge in the photo.
