How tall are you? I'm only 5'6 and I've got a long coat. Doesn't make me look short, IMO

C. none of the above.

I'm also 5'6"
After something about mid thigh length. That linked coat was nice but wrong size anyway. I'm a 46.

hate to post uniqlo coats after all the cool stuff, but I need a winter coat and can't spend more than this. Can't wait and save money b/c my old winter coat has gone missing

I've actually been debating the first one as per above I'm lookin for a wool coat. But again could be too long on me

 

[andrewgreg]

i like the dres over Yohji because the fabric looks much nicer on dres.

 

[pickpackpockpuck]

I like the Dries as well. The wool of those uniqlo coats isn't very thick, just FYI.

Does a 38 sound reasonable when I'm a true 40? Everything I've bought in a 40 lately has ended up too wide in the shoulders.
No experience with Our Legacy sizing.

our legacy blazers are cut very slim. i'm a true xs, their sz 44 shirts boxy on my and my 44 constellation blazer is very tight especially the arms. and i have tiny arms. i would definitely try it on or buy it so that it's returnable.

Yeah the arms piss me off, love the fabrics but can't get it to fit

 

[bosatlbwi]

yeah, i don't know who the **** they size the arms for. i have the arms of a 12 year old girl.

since we're on the subject of OL:
tried a sportjacket by them in 46 some weeks ago and the fit was just awesome, can I by that presume that everything they do in 46 will fit me great? or do they have loads of different cuts?

the two blazers i've tried on by them fit similar iirc.

shirts are generally boxier than blazers, but it depends on the cut as well.
