Very helpful, thank you. And, from what I've ascertained, the 254/TAJ-02 runs a bit smaller than the Model 3 but probably not the full size difference of the 184. I wear a 48 in the Model 3 (and in most RTW suiting) and am tempted try a 50 in the TAJ. I have one suit (a BTJ-01, just to complicate things) in a 50 and several overcoats in 48 – so it's all a little bit of a guess.

I’m with @professorclee in sizing up as well. All my AMJ-03 are 50 and the 01 as well, though I could have possibly gone up to a 52 cuz of the shoulder padding but glad I didn’t.

I am firmly a 52 in the TAJ.

I take US36/EU46 in pretty much anything, for 253/254 I take EU46 and for AMJ03 I take EU44

Anyone has sizing experience with RJ 281? Same size as 184, it looks kind cool, but not sure I would really wear...

Finally able to wear the TAJ-03 from the SS sale. For the record I sized up one and it was virtually perfect.

I only have 2 non-armoury models but need new photos of them. One is a really scratchy summer charcoal puppytooth and the other is a flannel POW which I would suffocate in if I tried to wear now but I’ll try to find an excuse to wear the other lol

I'm definitely interested in some 4x1 RTW option, I saw some Camoshita stuff that's about it in RTW (and some RLPL once a while)
