Probably referring to your epic shearling long coat

It seems from this thread that some people size down. I'm kind of stuck between going with a 52(tts) or sizing down to a 50

From what I'm reading, if you want a slimmer silhouette you can size down, but TTS is the "intended fit" - since I'm on the larger side of a 40, and trending towards slouchier fits, I'll probably go with a 50.

Can anyone compare sizing between Clint and Valstar’s unlined trucker?

You can of course refer to the size chart for it, but I'd point out that for the new Giubottino shirt jacket, the sample I tried was a Medium. I would wear an XL. My Sahariana is an XL
Greg, I want to order the Giubottino in the brown linen check #476. You're wearing a M in the pic? The sizing chart does skew large. If I'm a 42 normally should I go with the M as well? Large seems a bit oversize based on the chart. Cheers!

FWIW in my experience measurements on shackets always trend big since they're meant to be layered

No you should definitely get a Large. What looks oversized to you on the chart?

Yes I'm wearing an M on the photo and it's teeny on me
