I read on this forum that Boglioli blazers run small. Do the wool and cotton blazers have similar sizes or does one run smaller than the other? Thanks.

Different models (Dover, Soho, Wight, Coat, K-Jacket etc...) have different fit. I believe Soho runs smaller/tighter than Dover. Elastic Jersey models run a bit smaller I think, but they are also meant to be worn fitted. I have a Cotton Jersey Soho, and yes it's quite tight. Be sure to check the measurement for each model.

I have tried on almost a dozen Boglioli jackets via YOOX, all 3 button wool and wool blends. The sizing is all over the map from skimpy to a size too big.

I appreciate the help guys. Very informative stuff. I guess I'll have to roll the dice to see if the YOOX stuff fits. Thanks.:D
