Great feedback, thank you as always Newc.

It's a shame about the way Ikiji scales their trousers. It sure feels like they start at a 30 waist, and go up to a 34. And this is across 4 sizes!

I agree - and the IV is a fairly small 34, at that!

I feel like Ikiji is weird with their shirts as well. And then with outerwear/sweaters, I am always a III. Crazy world we live in.

At least so far, I just wanted to make my experience clear, that Doppiaa seems pretty standard with sizing. And I see that my experience differs from the experience of others.

Yeah I should preface my needing to go up 2 sizes for the Doppiaa pants with the fact that I can never fit into a normal pair of pants. Camoshita easy pants work for me though, so I think I’ll hold out hope for a pair of those this FW. Sounds like I wouldn’t stand a chance with the Ikiji trousers.

Also, really love the coat!

We should differentiate between the 5-pockets and the cords. I actually think the 5-pocket are TTS for their IT size.

So, just got my box, and here are thoughts on sizing:

Doppiaa: across the board (5 pocket, zig zag), I am a size 50. That comports with my size in Eidos, Rota, etc. I didn't get to spend much time with either item, so I'll reserve my thoughts for the time being. The pants are fuzzier than I thought they would be, the zig zag sweater is more robust than I thought it would be. Both seem very nice. Sizing up will just lead to the stuff looking funny, in my opinion. They are meant to fit in that eye-talian way.

:fu: I need a 50 too!

52s headed back unless anyone has a 50 they want to trade

Have you received this sweatshirt? How was the fit? @smittycl
Currently traveling and back home tomorrow. I think it arrives today and will check it out and report back.

Ikiji polo sweater. It’s definitely a sweater styled after a polo, very similar weight to my inis or naissance sweaters. I am a M/40 and took a 3.

Also wearing the Doppiaa five pocket pants, I might try sizing up from 46 to 48 to get a bit looser of a fit in the crotch but the fabric is thinner than I was expecting and has a nice amount of give. I like them!

Thanks for the update and the pic. The sweater looks good on you.

Is the ribbing very tight on the hem and cuffs?

I'm having a moment of weakness so I'm throwing up a IC for Valstar Clint size small. I've worn it about 10 times but is in pristine condition. Send me a pm if interested!
