The coat is by Lad Musician meaning it is cut slim and the biggest size is a 46/36.


Lad's overall cut is slim, but the sizing is frequently larger than the label would imply. For example my chest measures 35", yet I can often fit into the 42/32 and it's not even skin tight! I would imagine someone with a 38" chest could wear many (but not all) of their size 46/36 labeled pieces.

Every season Lad will make a few items in size 40 (for women) and 48 (largest for men), but these are always t-shirts. I've never seen an outwear piece in those outlier sizes.

Mumma #1 seller on sufu, my top sellers are him, bloodz vs cripz, klangspiel and minomni(even though I'm not as into the labels those guys sell anymore).

You get moth damage here? I occasionally see a moth or two make it into the house, but they usually burn themselves to ash on my superpowered lights within a day, haven't ever seen them go after my clothes
