Quick question, does anyone know how much shorter the sleaves are for the short jackets vs the regulars. Im looking at a 38R vs 38S. I tried contacting customer service but they havent got back to me and their sale is ending tonight. Im about 5'10 and my jackets tend to be about 24-24.5" sleave length from the shoulders.

Yea so those XS shirts were a bit too small for me. They would be excellent for someone >150 pounds and likes a slim fit. If anyone wants two X-smallbroken in no pocket crewneck tees in colors dill and old metal for $23.00 shipped let me know *significantly cheaper than online. If not I will just ship them back.

38r has about a 25-25.5 inch sleeve.

Do you know if the 38S is an inch shorter? Or is it 2? The long is 2 inches longer I think.

The sportcoats seem to be missing lapels.

edit- Found them. They are just about 1" wide. Which would make them wearable with a shoe lace tie.

Wow - a metal mix fabric for this season! I wonder where that idea came from?

Jcrew is such a whore. I can't resist her charms, but I feel dirty after the boxes have been opened.

I saw it at the store, its a pretty heavy shirt for spring. The fit is kinda big too IMO.

But it was a VERY solid shirt.
