Hi! I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on balloon trousers, but I was wondering about their sizing. I'm 6ft, 170-180lbs (Not working out vs clean bulking), and I'm normally between 32US and 33US which makes buying pants particularly difficult. Should I go for the 48 or 50?

Many thanks,
Félix

im a 31 usually and got the 48 and it just fits around the waist, snugly. 50 would have been more comfortable. based on my experience you might even want to consider 52? sorry for adding more confusion.

 

[zissou]

Yeah, definitely at least a 50.

I run a little larger than you - 190-200, and 34-35, and while I can squeeze into the 50s, the 52 fits well. I think you'd likely find irritatingly large in the waist.

Any chance the traveler jacket will make a return this F/W? Had the opportunity to try on a Yak wool version (unfortunately a size too big) and love the concept.

Yes ! A boiled wool as well as a lambswool version, both in dark navy, will be available this fall. Hope you like them !

Hello, I'm looking for some sizing/fit info for the Maquignon jacket! Sizing seems a bit conflicting on different websites. Some say to size down a lot but I'm not sure! I'm 5'6" 160lbs. I have the voiles ships linen camp collar shirt in an M size that fits perfectly. I also have a couple linen oversized t-shirts in size M and they fit perfectly as well. Should I got true to size, perhaps one size down? I'm really in love with the jacket and just want to make sure before I purchase, thanks!

Hello! Sorry but does anyone have any advice on what size I should try? Thanks in advance!

I would say to go true to size while accepting the fit is a little boxy ! those t-shirts are quite ample, so is the camp collar shirt. but maybe someone on the forum has a real life example to share with this jacket that will inform you better !

The easy shorts in 50 fit me perfectly, so given what you just said, I assume the 50 will fit me decently well. Thanks!

Is the cream twill used for the new Balloon trousers the same as that used in the spring/summer collection?

Hiya !

If you are referring to the 2023 Spring/Summer collection, then yes, the fabric is the exact same. The previous collections however do not have the same heavy twill.

 

[zissou]

Man, I love my heavy twill hiking trousers.

@De Bonne Facture will the boiled wool traveler be available on your site?
