Beautiful items, but unfortunately nothing in 40L. I'm searching for a leather or suede jacket and they are very hard to find (My tailors don't work with leather).

Would the gray pinstriped Brioni fit a 40L? The measurements seem a bit small. If so, I'm interested.
Thanks.

You know, I had to restrain myself from making any comments regarding the colouration of bovine blood.

I think Ed is going to start beating our arses at this rate - or will put us on the Incotex blacklist. Now THAT is scary. That pinstripe Brioni is nice but too large and too expensive for me.

No, no never in a million years!



(Says another 40L.)

Actually, yes, if the measurements are accurate. Either that chest measurement or the size tag is off, or it's been altered, since a 42 really ought to measure more than 41 inches around the chest. (The shoulder measurement's a bit on the narrow side, too.)

We 40Ls have to fight to death to get a good fit. It's a bloodsport!

That "42L" Brioni measures out closer to a 40L... the "44L" measures out closer to a 42L.

I've bought a couple of things from Rick without any trouble. He's pretty good about answering questions but doesn't take returns (i.e., even if you try and negotiate such in advance)
