Anyway, anybody know if the Barney's in SF is worth going to? Thinking of heading up to the city this NYE...

You don't know how bad I wanted to...but I didn't want to be "that guy", you know?

If I saw GOB or Tobias on the the other hand...

...I would probably shy away too

what does a dries slim fit size 52 measure roughly in chest and shoulders?

also, what's the fit/quality like on dvn's navy flat front cotton pants?

$1 vintage sundays, every sunday, at Jet Rag in Santa Monica

but make sure you get those clothes dry-cleaned after you buy them lol

fit and quality should be good.

a 52 should be 42-43" chest and 18.5-19" shoulders.

I was there last week, and there really wasn't much left in the sale stock. Unless you're either an XS or an XXL. Might be worth a peek if you've got nothing much else going on though.

Thanks for the help. Just realised shipping is almost as much as the shirt itself. ****.

+1 to this question, looking around they seem to be true to size. Anybody confirm this?

Please and thank you.

Edit: Just found a measurement chart on Oi Polloi and true to size they are.

What does the 52 actually stand for? Couldn't find out anywhere... I'm a medium, so am I a 48?

52 is the euro size. 52 eu = 42 us.

Thanks, so it's always minus 10? Why would they do that...

Your confusion results because most people subtract 10 from the Euro size to get *an approximate* US size. The approximation gets worse as the size gets larger.

As EA posted, it's best to learn your measurements and buy based on them.

A million thanks. But this means I missed out on the South Willard sale just because I didn't know how to size a f***** shirt

** Note, he messed up his example and it should be "Euro 54 is a US 42.5" **
