Anyone know if Evan Kinori has a different sizing system for Japan? Looking at a medium Melton wool field shirt on Zenmarket and the measurements seem smaller, which works best for me. Cheers.

Evan has widened several of his patterns over the years, so an M in some of the older stuff might fit more like and S now, or somewhere in between.

Also, some of the materials he uses can definitely shrink from certain methods of washing / drying. Wool would definitely be in that category.

So could be either of those factors or a combo of both, but only 1 sizing system, so not a Japan size thing

Having talked with evan about what a pain-in-the-ass grading different sizes can be, I would be very surprised if there was a separate chart for Japan-bound items.

Finally, and EK thread.

Figured my first contribution should be my first (and maybe favorite piece): the pleated jacket in beige selvedge twill from when Evan had a pop up at CHCM in 2016. This is 4 years of wear. Would be interested in other's!

Any interest in the two pocket shirt in yarn-dyed Japanese slub cotton from this past S/S season? Size L, new, unworn, and with tags from Dover Street Market? It's the same fabric that was used for the big shirt. First picture below is a fit pic I found online, and the others are of the actual shirt:
