anyone ordered from or familiar with 290sqm? not sure if legit

https://290sqm.com/SNS-Herning

also, can anyone familiar with the oxblood colorway comment on the trueness of the color represented on their site? looks less appealing than I've seen elsewhere
It's not terrible, but it's too bright,

290sqm is completely legit. My family lives in Amsterdam, have made several purchases there in person (including SNS).

I tried on a couple sizes of this season's Stark at Indigo & Cotton (great store, btw) today. For reference, I'm 5'7", ~133 lbs, 35" chest, wear an XS in Uniqlo shirting. I've previously owned a size S Stark from ~2 seasons ago that I bought on B&S, but I sold it because of the length and some awkward draping in the body.

I tried on a M and while the sleeves were long, I thought the body fit me well and the length was definitely shorter than my old S. I then tried on an XS - the body was obviously tighter and the sleeves were shorter, but the body length was pretty much exactly the same, strangely enough. I feel like the collar was the same height too. I want to try on a S just to make sure it's right for me, but the M was pretty tempting.



5'7" 133lbs and the Medium was pretty tempting

At 5'10" and 165lbs my XXL from Mr Porter (as per my lengthy post above) is not that out of place - especially since the only difference between the XL and XXL was only in the width of the arms!

What's a luxe Stark alternative
Cardigan, thick, cool texture, can be used as jacket.

If 290Sqm had that stark in Oxblood, Triple Grey or Purple Melange I would buy it right now. Dammit.

Those are definitely more luxe, but I don't think the styling is as modern/contemporary looking. I think part of it has to do with the texture.
Although Inis has aran knitting, it still looks like plain knitted wool, if that makes any sense.

I like the texutre on the Visvim Cowichan, cept not at 3.5k.

Volls deducts, I'm pretty sure. (Yup; see here: http://www.volls.de/index.php?cat=VERSAND&lang=ENG) The shipping is something you are going to have to bite the bullet on I think; I saw that the colorway was very popular, which is why I pulled the trigger on the last XL at TBS.


By my calculations it should come out to ~ $313 shipped anywhere in North America.

Thanks for the info!  Too bad W+H always seems to have tiny inseams for me... need about 3-4" more fabric on the inseam to fit me :S


These might actually work better for you. They're not super-long or anything, but I'm 6'1" and have them cuffed.

Hmmm, to be honest at the moment I wasn't really thinking the drop-crotch would mean I need less of an inseam... but it would make sense. I do quite like them!
