Trekking turtleneck arrived today. Really happy with it. Bought size medium (what I typically get for most non-Japanese brands) and it worked out just fine. Dimensions of turtleneck for the curious:

P2P: 20.5"
Shoulder: 17.5"
Sleeve (seam to cuff): 24.5"
Length: 24.5"

I'm 5'11", 15.5" neck, 35" sleeves, 38" chest, 33" waist. Typically wear 38R/48IT jackets.

The closest thing I can compare the quality to on this ribbed knit are those thick Stone Island turtlenecks they put out each year (I'm a large in those). What I really like is the oversized neck. Makes wearing it very comfortable. Definitely looking forward to future collections.

Obligatory "sorry for the bad photo/lighting" and "I'm not a model" picture:

Anyone get the cardigan? Curious about that, didn’t spot it at 180 at all for some reason

^You're not alone in that sentiment. I've wanted to find ways to bring more of my Indian heritage into my casual looks lately. 18 East's first capsule is really exciting and personal to me for that reason. Even though I live in a huge and diverse city, and a lot of big Indian and Pakistani fashion houses have stuff available online these days, selections are limited, cuts aren't to Western physiques, and the designs leave something to be desired even if the textiles are up to snuff.

Glad I'm not alone! Did you get anything from this capsule drop? I'm eager to see the Spring release. Its focused on a Rajasthani interpretation of French Painter Mark Maggiori's work in the American Southwest. Whatever Antonio is cooking up, I'm sure there will be designs that we can appreciate .

I'm pretty much the same measurements as you and that Medium looks great.

Think this confirms I will cancel my order for a Small. :brick:

You talking about the stonewashed denim shirt? If so I ordered one last Friday, still haven’t gotten a shipping confirm yet. Once I get it I can grab some measurements for you.
Cool thanks. Bought an xl as a gift for my brother. He wanted to maybe compare it to a large to make sure it was the best option. He felt it might be a bit large but wanted to make sure.

Checkin in for the big boy crew here...got the field jacket, wainscott aran, and indigo pajama shirt all in XXL. Hopefully they're all cut larger than eidos, as even the largest sizes never fit me quite right.
The cuts are definitely larger than Eidos. I could never fit in Eidos size M shirts, but 18 East M fits perfectly, if not oversized.

Anyone get the Jungle Jacket in a M? I would appreciate photos so I can see how to size it appropriately when I purchase.

6'0" 175 lbs for reference.
There were only larges and smalls when I was at 180, but based on that and your measurements, I would expect a medium to fit you great.

I'm hoping that at 6'2/185 the large jungle jacket fits me, since that's what I ordered
