I really like that tan Calabrese bag - wish I had picked that up at the sale!

That's how I feel about the LA PORTEGNA. :tounge:

Hi,

A couple of questions:

1. Do you think it would be straightforward to have the sleeves shortened on the Pedaled jacket? I was looking at the Pedaled website and the sleeve length for size S is 27.4", which is about 3" too long for me.

2. Could you post thigh measurements for the Rota trousers for size 46 and 48?

Also, if anyone who's bought the Rota pants has experience with Howard Yount's US cut, a fit comparison would be great! The HY US-cut fit me perfectly in size 32.

Thanks very much,
Hal

1. The sleeve length on that jacket is VERY tricky to assess based on measurements. Since the jacket is optimized for riding, the sleeves are cut in a curved shape. I would caution against jumping to conclusions because of that.

2. Will do on Monday.

Does Inis Meain sweaters shrink? I have a chest size of 42" but like my sweaters a little loose. What size do you recommend?

No they don't shrink unless you decide to wash them warm. If anything knits, stretch a little bit over time - but that is mostly in length.

I'm a 42" inch chest and wear L in Inis Meain. If you're looking for a looser fit, XL may be better.

Yup, but not at 30% off!

It is beautiful though, and I'll probably bite the bullet at some point.

That's true but it never was 30% off. It was 15% off during the sale. It is 10% off now with DEC10SF. Our markup on those bags is such that we couldn't reasonably go 30% off.

Oh, gotcha - I don't feel so bad now.

But you've only one kidney left.  And we still haven't heard from Junior...

i have 11 kidneys. junior is well.

They look awesome. Only thing keeping me away is that I prefer a much higher rise on my trousers.

thanks! i cant deal with high rise. we are teh opposite!

i think this looks great (and i am wearing the same sweater today)

thank you kindly, edouard. im sure you look wonderful.

Does Inis Meain sweaters shrink? I have a chest size of 42" but like my sweaters a little loose. What size do you recommend?

im a 42 and the one in the pic i posted yesterday is a L. if you like a looser fit you might be better with an XL. or buy both and return what does not fit. greg assured me its not a dick move to do that. i asked.

Also, if anyone who's bought the Rota pants has experience with Howard Yount's US cut, a fit comparison would be great! The HY US-cut fit me perfectly in size 32.

iirc i think my US HYs in 38 are pretty similar to the rota 54s (have not worn HYs since summer) ,with the rotas being a little bit slimmer. id say a rota 54 is somewhere between a US 38 HY and a IT HY of the same size. dont know if that helps. good luck !
