Measurements can be deceiving and I am hesitant to order, then, having to return over seas. Don't mind the single back pocket, it works with the pant's style.

I like B&B ties, have one.

The Arnold trousers came in and they are absolutely fantastic. I would recommend them highly. Will post some fit pics soon. However, I am quite slim and they seem to run slim. But great quality and price. I ordered two more because I like them that much.

Just ordered some light brown arnolds in my usual 52. Lets see how they fit.

I grabbed these ties from the winter sale, very pleased with them. I got hit by customs but still a great prodcut.

Nice tie selection! Really like the first two. I've been happy with the quality of the few Berg&Berg ties I've owned

I am actually selling the blue/brown ancient madder (far right one), just bc i have too many blue/brown ties

Received a pair of Alfons Linen Trousers. The fit is very skinny, particularly around the hips, which I suspect could be alleviated with pleats but they currently don't have linen trousers with pleats on offer.

Has anyone purchased a blazer that can comment on the fit--perhaps compared to Spier and Mackay? I'm considering this jacket: https://bergbergstore.com/collectio...le-breasted-wool-silk-herringbone-jacket-blue but as with others, the potential return costs concern me. The size guide for a 52 makes it look like it has a tight chest, but somewhat wide shoulders (at least compared to S&M). Anyway, if anyone has tried one and can comment, please do.

Hi,
Did you ever order the jackets? They have a sale on at the moment so it’s reduced. Like you I am concerned about the size, I ordered the Dan Fresco Blazer this morning, I’ve never had a European sized jacket though.

I am a UK 38 so ordered a 48 but the jacket measures 40 on the size guide but not sure if this is normal and I’m just being an amateur (New to menswear last few years.. still learning)!

Let me know if you ordered it and what you think, I’ll post some pictures when I get it.

Also for others commenting about returns, I had to return one of their linen shirts as it was too big on me and from the UK it cost me £15 but that was tracked and fully insured.

I'm still thinking about the blazer. I was hoping the the full 40% off would have extended to tailored clothing, but I'll give it a little more thought at the current price. Let me know how yours works out.

How have the pants been? I'm looking at the Alfons and considering a size up. Are the online measurements accurate?

Also interested in this, not sure if I should get a 46 or 48. I normally wear a 32” but my actual waist is closer to 31”.. which looks closer to the size 46..

That’s a nice collection! I bought a polo and the Dan Fresco blazer from the sale. Can’t wait to get them!

I got two pairs of trousers from awhile back.
I think it was the Arthur cut before they offered the higher rise options, but they were very slim and low rise :( so I'm hesitant to try again with the newer cuts.
