Same, wear a 3 in shirts but my arms couldn't fit inside a 4 to even try it on so I just gave up on BoO for suiting.

Thanks a lot indeed. Yeah I wear a 4 in BoO and medium in gitman (for the most part). A good deal on a suit but if a 4 was tight if you wear a 3 in shirts I'm out of luck.

FWIW the 4 and 5 fit almost identical imo, just a bit longer in length and bigger arms. And haven't had a BoO shirt in a long time but wear medium in Gitman too. 5 may work for you

BoO suiting is good quality. IIRC, they are made by Martin Greenfield in NYC and are fully canvassed. I have found them to be cut short, but not overly skinny (i.e., not a huge drop). High armholes might be difficult for you if you're buff.

I have a suit, that I just wore to a wedding and could post pictures in, but I'd agree with the above post, they're very nice but it's definitely tight in the arms, but I wear the same size I do in shirts (3 in both).

Yeah still on on the fence about it. Wurlwyde if you could post a fit that would be great. Yeah now not sure if a 5 would be better fitting for me.

I have a couple of sport coats size 3 if anyone's interested

London, what are the blazers? Do you have any full suits you're looking to get rid of?

Here are those pictures:

Good looking suit! I believe that's the same one I was looking at. What's your height and weight, good man?

 

[wurlwyde]

I'm 5'11" and about 175lbs. That's a 3 with size 2 pants.

Anyone know how BoO corduroy pants fit?

Hi,

I couldn't find a BoO official thread so I'm posting here.

Anyone have these BoO chinos either khaki or navy?

If so,
1. How's the fit?
2. How's the quality? Are they thick and heavy or light? Durable?
3. Is the navy one really that dark as it is in the pics?
4. Do you know of a website where I can buy size 30 on sale right now?

In terms of fit, I have J Crew 484, Club Monaco modern slim fit, and Dockers Alpha khakis. Dockers is my favorite among these. How do BoO chinos fit compared to Dockers?

Thanks.

Are the polos fitting the same as button downs?

I find the polos to fit "slightly" larger. If you are between sizes, go down. If not go TTS

I was thinking that unfortunately. The one polo I wanted too. I wear a sz 4 in band shirts and medium in gitman. I assumed id be a 4 in polos too.

Sizing for polos is all over the pace. I'm a true medium and some of the polos that I've bought in a size 3 are skin tight, some true to size. Some 4's have fit as well

What's even more whack is that retailers advertise sizes differently. End and Mr. Porter say a 2=a small while places like Nordstrom and Context say 2=medium.
