yeah if S fit willy well, XS should be great on me

actually from what TF just quoted, how is 17.5" p2p possible haha. Shoulders would be better judge, i think

is this going to be knee length for me? i'm 5'6.

Larger armholes means the p2p measurement is lower on the chest. Similar issue with sportjackets and suit coats.

I was also apprehensive about the 17.5 p2p. Didn't really make much sense.

My guess is it would hit at lower thigh above the knee.

thanks for the info y'all

even wtih large armholes the duffle looks boxy to where it wouldnt' taper much in the chest, so 17.5 is probably incorrect

No way does anything from Uniqlo have a 17.5" pit-to-pit, regardless of armhole size. I have an XS zip jacket with a 20" pit-to-pit.

Geez, they never pick up the phone anymore. Anyone know the best time to call them??

I'd love it if someone could proxy that tweed jacket for me. Apparently they just received a new shipment, so I want to grab one before they sell out again.

I'd imagine the best time to call would be before or right after the store opens in the morning to about lunch time, and right before they close. The least busiest hours basically.

Are you guys leaving messages at Uniqlo and they aren't calling you back? I placed an order maybe a week before the Jil Sanders release (which probably made the place even more of a zoo). I called, they called me back the next day and I told them what I wanted, they called me back again an hour later telling me which of my items they had in stock and that was that. Though, the last time I tried to email them I just got some auto-responder (even though the website says to email them to check stock). Weird. I hope this isn't the end of the service.

I wear a 39-40 jacket size. Would I be better off with a Medium or Large in Uniqlo's blazers?

I called and left a message at the 877-4-UNIQLO. Is that the correct number?
