New brown coverts, quickly cuffed them last night - still need to take the waist in when I have a moment, but you get the idea...

Are these slim or contemporary fit?

Just wanted to provide an update on the S&M Fox Brothers Green check blazer. It's a very nice blazer for winter. It is definitely a darker shade of green. It is slightly less thick than my O'Connell's Southwick Harris Tweed Grey Herringbone blazer. In terms of fit, it is definitely more generous than the Havana cut but the 38R is comparable in both styles, whereas with the Southwick I had to go for a 37R. I suspect the S&M slim would've been a tad too tight. For trousers, are the S&M slim comparable to Suit Supply which is very slim and the big downside of Suit Supply? I am leaning towards S&M classic. If you are between sizes, should you go up or down? Thanks!

I'd say S&M's contemp trousers are as slim in the seat and waist as SuSu's brescia, however they are wider through the leg. If I am between the sizes or fits I prefer to go for the larger as it's always easier to take things in

For flat fronts that may be the case, for high rise pleated I found the S&M contemporary is significantly fuller in the hip and seat, albeit I have only ever tried one pair of Brescias but around 15 pairs of S&M high rise.

This is definitely the case. The Vigo, which I think is among SuSu's highest rise trousers with pleats, has a rise about .5-.7" shorter than the high rise pleated. They're probably closer to the plated contemporary regular rise.

This arrived today. Beautiful cloth, but the armholes and sleeve size are pretty drastically smaller than my past Neo coats. Doesn’t work for me at all, unfortunately. Are all the new Neopolitan coats like this now?

High rise regular chinos are finally back!

I got burned on the summerweight chinos so I'm apprehensive but are these like a standard 8oz?

Had a look at the regular chinos. Doesn't say the weight, but these are the standard chinos just in high rise. I find that the regular mid rise for me at least was just a tad low for me. Other than the sizing inconsistencies. This is one of my favourite items from Spier

If I remember correctly, the armholes were raised 2cm starting in FW 21, and there was supposedly some correction for the latter part of SS22, with FW22 being adjusted back to just 1cm raised from the pre-fw21 armhole. FW21/ss22 weren’t great for me either (although there was some variation due to cloth/allowances), but fw22 armhole works pretty well again.

These are OTR? Because they look very different to how they look on me. I feel like they're a lot higher on your torso.

My favourite jacket, guaranteed a compliment whenever I wear this. Sleeves are a tad tight I do agree.

They are OTR from the current season, the rise does increase in line with waist size and on the contemporary fit.

What waist size do you take and in what fit? .
