Well, considering that the photos are in pages of the jackets, it could just be a couple of cloths repeated, possibly from trial runs, or Ambrosi trousers actually.
Your irony doesn't solve the mystery for me. If I wear the mod 2 trousers with a mod 2 jacket, I definitely can't cover the shirt up to the buttoning point like they magically do.
Just camera angles magic?

Might need a size up? Lets see some pictures?

Unlikely, i was close to fitting the size down in the jacket in fact. I guess it could be the trousers, but they would certainly be too loose in the waist.
In any case, I'll take a photo the next time I wear them.

You can always take in waist in the trousers. 6cm would be no problem

Looks like there's a hidden coin pocket there. Any other additional features/details you can share that the Mod3 has over the Mod2?

There are in fact, two coinpockets!

We did this to separate them slightly while hanging next to eachother.

The main difference is the higher rise and wider leg.

Hey all, need a fit check here. I got a 48 (size 38 US) mod 2 puppytooth suit. The legs are super tight, so I’ll need to compare with better fitting trousers to see if there’s enough available fabric to let out the entirety of the trousers. Thoughts on the shoulders? Are they too tight? Thanks in advance. Trying to see if it’s even worth bringing to the tailor or to simply return these.

I forgot I did have a photo of the mod 2 pants. I had initially ordered my waist size (30) and found them way too tight. Went to a size 32 and let the thighs, knees and below knees out ~3cm each side. And they ended up still too tight.

I’m 182cm tall, 75kg

Will be photographed this week, and up as soon as possible.👍🏼
Excited to see those Kevin.

What would be very useful is for the size chart to be in place as they get launched on the website, I know that usually takes some time to include but would save us all a lot of time contacting online support.

The jacket seems a little tight too.
Tension/pull on the closing button. (Might be the tag)
Tension/Pull on the back vents.

The trousers here need to be let out alot through the leg and across the seat.

Judging from these pictures, I would go one size up rather than let out this one.

These should have been another size up then.

Pockets open up, which means it is way too tight acros the seat.
