I did but I was in between sizes. The medium was too tight but the large was sliding off me. Super cool pants though and the embroidered paint splatter was so pretty.
Ahh ok.
Was worrying the same for me too so I haven’t gone for them yet.

I'm in need of a new navy suit (probably midweight to maximize usefulness throughout the year) and am going back and forth between those from Sartoria Carrara and Sartoria Formosa. I have relatively broad shoulders without a lot of slope. The Carrara looks maybe a little more 'natural' shouldered than I typically like. Anyone with experience with either or both have thoughts on the fit differences, any noticeable differences in quality, etc.? Thanks. If this has come up and someone can direct me to additional reading, that would also be appreciated.

Ugh, you guys. I'm pretty convinced...if you have a low instep and are in between sizes, size up on castaner loafspadrilles, and size down on pablos.

I'm happy to do some comparison shots later, but this has become the bane of my existence.

I found I needed a 10 loafspadrilles and 11 pablos ?‍♂️

Do we have a navy suit in your size in both makes? There are differences in style (gorge, shoulder expression, sleeve cut) and also in make (more handwork in Formosa) but it’s probably hard to tell from pictures. I’m sure I went over a lot of the details in the past when we launched the tailoring line. I’d have to dig up more to find those.
