I went in and looked at these today, but the sizing was wrong. Can anyone please explain to me why an American brand, made for an American store, and advertised on their American website would use European sizes?

Wool herringbone two-button slim sportcoat. Flap pockets, chest welt pocket and center vent. Fully lined interior with single button-welt pocket. Available in Grey. Made in Italy. 100% wool. 100% rayon lining. Dry clean.

That would be my guess.

This is new to you? Well, the sizing isn't "wrong." If a coat is marked 50Eu, it is roughly equivalent to a 40R, 52EU = 42R. Although in my experience, Euro sizing fits slimmer than it's American counterpart.

Yet the Co-op brand is made for Barneys, and all of their suits and coats on the 6th floor are arranged in US sizes. A simple note on the item description would've been appreciated, that's all.
