I've seen some people say Ring Jacket fits a size small (i.e. if you're a 48 you should buy a 50), but the measurements here look pretty normal, am I just living in crazy world?

Long story short, it all depends on the model. I’ve sized up in some and others TTS.

Received my recent haul including the Sportivo 2 parka.

Beautiful coat but was disappointed with the pocket lining. For a parka at that price point, I would've expected wool or cashmere lining. It's a small detail but given that my hands are in my pocket most of the time when outside, it really is unpleasantly noticeable compared to my other coats/parkas.

Does anyone know if it's possible to replace the pocket lining?
How's the fit? Long enough to wear with a suit if needed? I missed out on the blue but my size came up in the gray.

Thanks in advance.

This jacket is TAJ-02, so in this fit I had to size up from 48 to 50 and then adjust my waist. 48 size could have worked, but it was a bit snug overall and short to my taste.

I didn’t look at the model but I also had to size up to a 52 in TAJ-2 as well. The jacket is a touch long on me because I have short arms but mine is a suit so I don’t mind. The other aspects fit perfectly though, a 50 would’ve been too snug all around.

Are there any lengths available for the Jeans? I'm deciding between mod 22 and mod 88 but the mod 22 jeans do not have the right description.

@kevinsvindland are the collar points on the new 100 hands button downs the same size as previous runs? or are they smaller?

definitely long enough to wear over a suit. I occasionally wear it over a sportcoat when snowing.

sizing is trim to size. I’m typically a trim 52 and it fits me well so if you’re in between sizes, size up

I would say true to size, but slim.
I wear the same size in RJ TAJ-02 as I do in Cavour Mod 2.

But the way that it is cut makes it easier to size up if you want a little more room, without it looking weird.
