Agreed. I think it may have been @MeatFish who said on IG that it's reminiscent of the molded Ikiji polo's and I agree with that. It really holds shape well and just cuts a super interesting/flattering silhouette. The back-only ribbing is great too - don't know if I've ever seen that before. If the other two colors weren't sold out in my size, I'd get a second.
How’d you size compared to your most common letter size? I’m typically a medium and have a couple long sleeve Doppiaa sweaters in 50 and was wondering if I should go the same size here.

For those who’ve sent stuff to the tradeup program recently, did LuxeSwap credit your shipping costs?

The shipping costs get credited around the same time as the credit for the consigned items so it takes a while.

I have a doppiaa AAdeo terry polo, advice is go up one in the AAttilio terry polo? Virtusize says they’re the same, so just want to make sure. Looks like there’s not a big jump between sizes anyway.

Shot in the dark - does anyone have on body pics of Rota flat fronts and Manhattan's for comparison? I'm trying to decide which I should go for for my tailored pants, mainly in regards to the taper. I'm a shorter, lean guy so sometimes an agressive taper can make me look a bit weird. So I'm leaning towards the Manhattan's, but it's hard to tell the differences without many pics out there.

This is the higher rise side tab flat front (tailored in the waist and finished cuff) and the manahattan (unaltered). Both size 52.

Thank you, this is really helpful and exactly what I was looking for! As a side note, I see you forgo a belt, which is obviously necessitated with the higher rise side tab pair. Would you recommend that for this kind of style? I'm a menswear newbie and am looking to pick up a few pairs for a smart casual office environment, but can't decide between pairs with belt loops or side adjusters. No offence taken if you don't want to respond to that point though.

No problem. I was traveling at the time of those photos and either didn’t bring a belt or didn’t have one that fit. You certainly could wear a belt with the Manhattans. I’ve been erring on the side of belt loops with more recent purchases.

Belt loops vs side adjusters is just personal preference IMO. Some prefer not having to wear a belt and some feel the beltless look is cleaner. Belted may be a bit more flexible with sizing (ie. you can tighten and loosen your belt). Some also just like to accessorize with belts.
For some makeups though, it only comes in one option.
