Hi gents, two quick questions that need your help:

1. For sportcoats, does the jacket length measurement in their size guide includes the length of jacket colloar?
2. For sportcoats in same size, how would you feel S&M slim fit comparing with Brooks Brothers' Milano Fit (if you had the experience)?

Many thanks in advance and have a nice weekend!
It starts at the seam underneath the collar.

A sack 3 roll 2 sack jacket with unpadded natural shoulders and swelled edges would be super cool. Idk how it would sell, but I like them a lot. The ones posted look great.

Those Sondios are terrific summer jackets! I could easily justify buying both. Would love to have DB cut from that off-white (Light brown) fabric.

Does anyone have a photo of the Natural Linen jacket in the wild?

Indoor. Color is a lot lighter outside. Imo better than the previous light cream linen which I sold. Changed buttons to black horns.

I think someone posted a picture earlier today actually. The S&M photos are pretty accurate.

The classic BB shoulder has never really been what most of us think as a soft shoulder these days. It’s more of what they call a natural shoulder, right in the middle of a structured English style shoulder and a soft Italian shoulder.

I would really dig a model that’s a sack with Italian shoulders.

That may just be the new upcoming trend. A cleaner dartless relaxed jacket may be more suitable for this time.
