Anyone with enough experience to comment on the fit/construction between these two? I know they are both soft shouldered and presumably slip. If the cost is the same to me which should I go with for a basic navy blazer?

Oxxford's Type A is very natural shoulder and slim fitting. Construction depends on whether it is made in Highest Quality or 1220. HQ make is Oxxford's regular make, which is quite simply the best. 1220 is made like Brioni. The Type A (and Type B, which has a fuller chest) is stocked by Oxxford in the 1220 make in a navy blazer, which has a regular retail price of $1,795.00.
