Fit looks spot on. You hit George Bass or M Goldberg?


I got it at Orvis, actually. Although I am a George Bass guy.

And that NR coat is unbelievably awesome. Love it. Interested in their rain gear (no way I will get use out of that parka).

That Moscow is perfect! Fit seems spot on, did you size down?

Nope. Listened to Greg's advice and got the Large. It hugs my chest nicely, and is designed to have enough room to fit a jacket underneath. For reference, I'm 6', 180 lb., and a 42R.

Query, what is that green diamond weave crew neck sweater underneath the Norwegian rain coat? It looks very nice.

Ahhh I think you are correct! Very nice. For some reason I've been on a diamond weave kick.

Can I know your height? Looking hard at some Eidos stuff, but worried that my 1.68m height would not be able to pull of a 46R


I'm about the same height as you if not a bit taller and I would say it most likely won't fit if it's one from NMWA. It's a beautiful suit but just doesnt fit right for me. A jacket that goes past the thumb and falls a little too much past my rear only makes a shorter person look shorter. I posted pictures below and excuse the bad quality and non matching pants, had a different suit on and decided to take a picture of the jacket fit. If only they offered a 46S .

Was afraid of that, there are so many nice Eidos models,

My wallet is singing relief though =p

@jtorres94

That's been my issue with a lot of the 46 Eidos pieces (even other retailers, not just NMWA). At 5'7, I need a 46S not R. I almost feel that end of the size spectrum should be S by default, because I tend to see shorter guys trying on that size.

Agreed on the collection—exceptional, as always. And I hear you, @kelwatches :)
