Received my Guabello hopsack separates today. Took a gamble on the 33 contemporary trousers but paid off. Just the right amount of slim in the thigh with good space on the top block.

Love the color and fabric, a little darker than I was expecting based on photos but will fit my needs.

Does anyone else find the turtleneck sweaters run a bit bigger than the usual sweater?

My sweaters seem to be a tad on the big side as well for the size. Kind of just accepted it lol, maybe the machine wash will help it shrink a tad

Are those sweaters turtlenecks? Or regular ones?

Regular crew necks, but they seem to be the same size measurements on Spier's website

All sweaters are supposed to be the same measurements. I fit perfect into a S crew/v neck. But the S Turtlenecks seem way bigger than the crews/v necks.

Late to the party, but I finally got a regular oxford and summer oxford. I haven't owned a new oxford since the old brushed ones.

IMO, the summer oxford is more of a true, year-round oxford than a summer one. The regular oxford is more of a winter weight.

I vastly prefer the summer oxford due to running hot.

This is the oatmeal donegal. If still in your size, it’s worth a purchase, in my opinion. Amazingly beefy cloth.

For those of you with the shorts, can they be taken in like the normal chino’s or no? I am usually a 29 waist, so need to size up to 30 for S&M to get the extra room in seat

All SM. Putting navy mop buttons on the brick Zignone makes it casual wearable and not so formal anymore. Top notch fabric btw, another sleeper that people should check out especially on current sale + code.

I like the contrast, Riva!

I see a trend toward 3 button cuffs here on SF. Where did that come from?

Birthday combo and of course I decided to wear S&M stuff.

The feel and texture of this E Thomas are among the best SM ever used from that mill. However the windowpane makes it a struggle for me to wear as it makes one look fatter than normal when it is cut short.

I have always used 3 buttons as I have shorter arms and a 4 accentuates the shorter sleeves. Also a 3 makes it more casual and different than the rest. Lately though I've been converting my jackets to single or 2 buttons which works really well with unstructured jackets. Makes them look closer to the very casual shackets.

You just posted a picture of your slender form. You could handle looking "fatter than normal," brother.

Anyone else matches their mask?
