Sweet. I was just thinking I need a new overcoat as my current ones are great when wearing just a shirt/sweater, but tight when wearing a sportscoat. Zanieri Brown Houndstooth incoming!

kinda sad - 99% of my wardrobe is either S&M or SS, lol

 

[Mr Clemson]

Could someone chime in on the fill rating of the parka?

S&M told me that the parka is good to 14F/-10C.

Fine print says they are excluded.

That's the best news I've seen all day. I ordered one last night and was kicking myself at having missed the sale.

S&M told me that the parka is good to 14F/-10C.

That would make no sense...

S&M told me that the parka is good to 14F/-10C.

And they’re sold in Canada as winter coats? Maybe they’re called commuter parkas because they’ll only keep you warm inside a heated vehicle.

@masernaut @saskatoonjay

I was told that it's "an urban type Parka ... good to -10c." Maybe @spiermackay can chime in.

Teal coat ordered! Also, wearing my Moon gray tweed pants for thr first time today, with an MTM Oxford. Excellent combo.

How is the tweed pants ?

Hi guys! Could you help me please with a sportcoat size - my chest about 100-101 cm, waist is 81-82 cm. I wear suitsupply Lazio suit of 48 size (I guess it is 38 in UK measurements). As you mentioned, your 38 contemporary fit of a sportcoat is close to SuSu Havana 38, but I am just afraid that armholes and everything will be wider for contemporary fit. Will 38 slim be ok given my measurements?

Damn, it was already -10 this morning in Toronto and we're only in November!

Wow. Very thankful to live in a mild climate.

You should. I wear 38 in both brands and haven't anything different in sizing.

How is the tweed pants ?

Not too scratchy, nor thick. Comfy on a chilly Houston day in the low 50s. Don't think they would stand up to severe cold on their own.

wow this forum moves fast, this is from yesterday but its already 6 pages back.
Honestly this just looks like how Balmacaans look. I know they were hyped up and a lot of people got excited because of the hype, but they are not tailored-wear. I love how big they are but I know a lot more people who want tailored single-breasted overcoats instead. Balmacaans do look better unbuttoned or buttoned once or twice, but man they feel nice when its cold and windy and you can button it all the way up.

First time I'll be purchasing a S&M coat, can anyone help with size/fit? Im looking at the overcoat (single breasted) wool/cashemere and I currently wear size 40s in Bonobos/SuitSupply. I have heard that even though product description says take your normal suit size, it seems many folks are saying your regular suitsize makes for a very tight fit for the coat if you're actually wearing a blazer/suit underneath. Should I size up to the 42S overcoat size in S&M?

Also looking at the commuter Parka looks good too, I guess i should probably go with Size M? I am 5 ft 8, 175 lbs.
