At the risk of being blasphemous to this thread, does Anyone have any experience with the new Eidos suiting or knits? I’m in the market for a new sport coat and was considering grabbing one on sale, and some of the knits seem compelling on deep discount.

While we're all rummaging around in our sweater drawers, if anyone has a large in the pink donegal they don't wear enough I'd gladly take it off their hands.

anybody who had the indigo cotton cashmere sweater from last year: does it loosen up much? picked one up on ebay recently and it's pretty small for a medium, but I recall some people saying they were hoping/expecting it to stretch loosen. Did that ever happen? Or should I let this go?

My experience was that it looked right but felt too snug (size L, had M in other knits from the same season). That feeling dissappeared after a few uses but I doubt it’s enough if it actually looks too short to begin with.

the knits look great (particularly the chunky turtleneck nordstrom has). i'd love to scope the tailoring in person but nobody within like 400 miles of nashville sells it so…

Suit fit is same as the old blaz model, so if it worked for you before would work for you now, fabric choice is more "city", no experience with the new knit

Fabrics are different, but most cuts are balthazar. We launched in SF and got to meet simon spurr and he told us it would be the same cut

Just got my first Eidos suit and looking for some advice from experts here. It's the NMWA cut - birdseye wool. The jacket fits me perfectly but the trousers are tight across the thighs, causing the pockets to flare out even when I'm standing. As far as I can tell there is no wrinkling across the thighs or anything like that. Is this something that can be fixed by letting out the waist/seat or would it be a more complex fix (if it's possible to fix at all)? The previous owner had the waist taken in very slightly. Will try to take some photos in the days following.

Also does someone have a chart of all the eidos suiting/sportcoat cuts from most generous to most slim?

Thanks in advance!
