If I'm L/XL, would an XL in the Scott & Charters shawl cardigan likely work? I think consensus would tend to put me in a L on this piece, but the one I'm considering (beige) doesn't have L in stock. I actually had one of these from NMWA in a M a few years back, but sold it because it felt too big! My how times have changed.

I’d say yes but I was in the minority where I actually liked to size up to an L

Anybody have any sizing takes on the ts(s) L-pocket pants? Inspired by @conceptual 4est's recommendation on IG. The product page says to size up because they are slim (which is ok for me), but anybody know about length? The pants by Japanese makers seem to tend to be on the shorter side (which is not ok for me). Wondering if that's the case with these.

I don't think we will stock any of the shearling options in the store. All pre-orders
Makes perfect sense to do a pre-order only. They are stunning in person but a shop near me dropped several FW22 Valstar shearling jackets last month to the 40% sale. I was shocked that there were several models and almost a full size run of each (few weeks ago). The Valstarino on the other hand always sells well and never hit their sale rack.

It's really expensive inventory to carry. We have the best version of a coat shearling that was ever made with the Redford (not a biased opinion) and we still have quite a few on the rack.

And sizing is really NOT that hard to get right. They're all TTS, unlike the slimmer Valstarino

Question re: Wythe Ranch jacket......the sleeve length for a large states 33.9in. I assume this is measured from the center of the yoke. Do you find that the sleeves run short on this jacket? I'm used to seeing 35in sleeve length for a 44in chest jacket.
