Wtf, I had another store which said they would get the alpaca jacket and now they didn't get i because "it was cancelled".
Wrongweather cancelled my order last week for the same jacket, too.
Official store also sold it minutes before I asked for it. :-(

So what to do now? Just get size 5 or wait for someone to sell his size 4? I would really pay some extra $$$...

Why buy the wrong size? Just wait it out

Yeah, but problem is that there are not that many size 4 jackets out there.
So don't know what great my chances are that someone will be selling his one.

But maybe someone realizes that it doesn't fit or is too warm or whatever. There's still hope...

For the last case, I could offer a very nice/rare Schneider jacket from SS11 that might be interesting, then.

But I mean, what's the point dropping $800 for a jacket you know won't fit and will never be completely happy with? Unless you're loaded or have access to an AMAZING tailor

Yeah, already contacted them over a month ago or so and they only had size 5 left. Size 4 had been sold just a few moments before.

And reedobandito, you're right of course.

Or... you can buy the jacket and give it to me.

At this point you should probably just list what you didn't buy. :embar:

I've heard the fit is pretty weird. Which shouldn't be surprising given that the fit on his tops is on the weird side. I think jet has mentioned that he stays away from his pants for this reason. Couple seemed cool enough to dabble so I'm going for em.

I actually find his pants to be pretty consistently sized. I own 7 pairs of Schneider pants, and in 6 of them, I am a size 5, and in one a size 7 (from a suit from last SS collection - the waist was fine, but the thighs were insanely narrow and i had to size up).

He does do different cuts of pants in the leg (slim vs. a more full cut), but the fuller cuts can be tailored if need be. But again, in terms of waist size, i find his pants to be much more consistent than his shirting.

they are all over the place. tried on the ribbed ones today in size 4 - they are pretty wide and tapered w big waist (drawstring). i have a cool pair from last fw in same size and they fit super slim in the thighs, straightish in the legs - had a huge butt and waist (had to take to tailor)....soooo yeah...very inconsistent sizing
