I don't need their slim fit because the buttons around the chest strain too much and it looks awful. Their cuts are pretty slim already, so you won't have a problem....I can't buy CM shirts if they're slim fit, but if I go up a size they're too big. Their clothes are made for thin dudes.


They do have Classic and Slim fits; maybe you can try the Classic?

I wish they would make more in the classic fit. I didn't see too many for spring/summer.

I noticed before I used to be a size small in their sweaters, now I put on a SML and it's swimming on me. I'm now a XS.. When did this happen?

I got their khaki unstructured cotton sport coat at the beginning of the spring with the 20% student discount and it's held up great so far. I recently bought a pair of cotton navy trousers and they did free alternations too. Just got 'em back and they fit and look pretty great. If you're a student, it's probably one of the best brands out there that offers a student discount.

It's probably that particular style. I'm XS in most of their sweaters but some XS are too big for me.

I tried on a Wright fit blazer today and like the fit. But the fabric is cotton which I am not a fan.

Does anyone know which CM location in T.O has the best suit selection? Bloor St, Eaton's Center, Queen West?

Check Bloor first, then Eaton Centre. Usually very limited suiting at Queen West.

The website has alot of selection too, free shipping/returns over $175 too i believe.

Yeah in the outwear I'm a XS. Does wonders for my EGO :)

I know this question was asked before, but does anyone work at the Eaton's location?

If this wasn't mentioned already, college students can get 20% off the merchandise on the site (I believe this includes all sale items as well). Even if you're not, as long as you have an .edu email, I believe it should work- just apply for it at the bottom of the site.


Do you get a reply from CM offering 20% off, or does it just come off automatically when you purchase something? I signed up for the emails and just got an email offering free shipping...

How often does this stuff go on sale? Oggling over the Carlyle Chambray http://bit.ly/KQd5Fs and thinking I may buy now w/ the student discount, and then buy again if it goes on sale w/in 60 days and "return" the new one as the first one I buy.

Student discount is now only eligible with a valid university/college e-mail address apparently. A student card is no longer enough.
