Can't speak to that. I wear Contemporary fit and I size up. Don't like 'm tight.By give I just mean some fabrics naturally stretch a little and others don’t. Like linen has no give whatsoever, so if your trousers don't have extra room, they'll tear at the seams, where as most wool trousers have some give (except certain weaves, like some tweeds which have none).
but, if peoples' experience is that they do have some give, that's reassuring. i don't wear my trousers tight but i do like a relatively slim knee.
Hello! I am new to the forum. Without having to reread the entire thread, how does Spier and Mackay’s contemporary fit sportscoats fit compare to other brands? I am about 6 feet tall, 213lbs, and waist around 35”. I tend to have issues with most brands having too tight-fitting shoulders, chest, and biceps. For a recent bespoke jacket, 43.5” (actual chest as measured is 41.5) was used for the chest area. I have a bad shoulder and if jackets are too tight or have little range of motion , I tend to start to ache after a while. For reference, I have an over the the rack 42r regent fit brooks brothers jacket that is unbearably tight. Thanks!
Yes, debating between trying a 42 or 44rHave you checked here to compare to your bespoke or preferred brand's sizing specs?

Order both and return the one that doesn't work for you.Yes, debating between trying a 42 or 44r
I’d probably size up. I have a similar build and fine 44 to be a better fit for me.Yes, debating between trying a 42 or 44r

Hey Rick, @spiermackay @SpierTeam
I am trying to buy a MTM shirt, but when I add it to my cart it is doubling the $99 price or something wacko like that.
Here's the screen shot showing the 4 items and the total cost is way out of wack.
I've cleared cache and cookies already and emptied my cart and re-added them several times. How can I fix this?
