Bogotas look nice. Can’t really justify another jacket so will have to decide between a new Bogota or the blouson

Ayo guys need some sizing advice ... So I usually wear a size 32 in jeans...had Bianca Denim in a size 32, but thinking about getting either Skittles or Pompeii. Would I fit into a size 31? Also, should I cop Skittles or Pompeii?

Thanks, any input is much appreciated!

Pompeii. Can't speak for sizing bc it really depends on your body type. But I think skittles will be phased out soon. Pompeii trumps skittles

I'll take it off your hands if you want.
lol I am probably just going to keep it for now. I don't think it looks bad (kind of reminds me of wearing a cardigan but with a hoodie) and I got this almost brand new for such a good price that I don't want to get rid of it so easily. If I find a Medium size I will possibly let this go and let you know.

They run small. I have the 3 of them in different fabrics. I have L and XL and the L is a bit snug. I'm 6' 180ish.

What are your thoughts on the construction? I remember reading a few pages back that some people were unhappy with a weak pocket? Still waiting on my bone plaid to arrive.
I’m not sure I’m the right person to ask about the plaid because I only have the jacquard. The jacquard seems solid, the material is a decent weight, the buttons have improved from last season, I didn’t see any snags or loose strings. The thing about the pocket is a serious concern. To prevent the pocket from being seen when the shirt is unbuttoned it is “tacked” on with a single thread so it doesn’t flap around. The rest of the pocket is attached well elsewhere and looks to be solidly attached, but if that one string snaps you could have a floppy pocket hanging around on the inside.

Italian nylon taffeta for the bombers. Sounds different than before and expensive. I would say to expect a higher retail price just to not get your hopes up.

I'm pretty sure the first bogotas were Italian nylon as well. I don't know if this one is a different type of Italian nylon

I have the black one, I guess we'll find out. I wish they updated the pockets and better cuffs and collar. I'd like it a bit thicker

Also, looks like that the second one isn't Oak, but is Olive instead? Confusing filters. And the bone color is called tan.
