I'm 6'0", 161 lbs and denim one in size 3 was way too big, size 2 is a nicely oversized fit on me. Also note that denim ones fit slightly longer than other ring coats, not much but noticeably.

That's what I figured, going for a 2. Thank you!

Considering your height I would even try 1, but 2 should still fit good, but very oversized. I wear 2 in all of my ring coats (denim, katsuragi cotton, wool) and it's a perfect fit.

I just bought the denim mountain country one and it was a two. Fits perfectly and I'm 6'2 165 pounds. I thought it was gonna be small but still nicely oversized!

Wow. Messaged them when I saw this, hopefully some still left. Thanks for the heads up.

Phil is a really really great guy, vestis is a really really great store. Pittsburgh is a really really ****** location for anything style related

Just a heads up, they're also the light blue version. Can't tell how electric that blue is in real life, in some product pics it's super bright.
I have seen the fabric IRL. It is not that electric. It comes off more muted than what you may see in internet photos. It is quite nice.

Yeah stores can't put kapital on sale online, plus Phil does everything by himself so part of it is finding the time...
Thanks for posting this sale. For those wondering, these are the higher rise, straight fitting model. Worth asking for measurements if they have something that approximates your size since these appear to have made up small.

Thanks. I did finally find a fit pic that wasn't done w/ studio lights on Canoe Club's site, and it looks pretty good. I've tried on century denim before, and can confirm that it fits at least 1 size small from the tag. I'm a 29 tag waist in US stuff usually, and 32 worked well for me in the century denim (different color).
