Wearing the latest edition of the long sleeved polo today. Think it’s the best one yet, button down collar will be a must for me going forward and the additional fourth button is much appreciated. Able to keep the placket (I think that’s what it’s called) slightly open without showing too much chest. Ended up sizing up this time around too since a lot of the ones I have from the past have shrunk considerably. Fits pretty great after an initial wash and air dry

I have been waiting at least 4 months for the extra slim chinos to come back into stock. I have no idea what's going on with this.

I love my XXL hoodie and XXL Sweaters. I'm 6'3" and 205 lbs. I guess I'm the sterotypical "fat American".

I’m an XXL too, but 6’4” and 230 so I’m apparently obese if you’re fat ?

@afterthesuit

I believe @afterthesuit has one, think he has posted some on here and on his instagram

I have one - will try to get some pics. I'm 5'10 and usually wear a 42R/S and got an XL in Navy. Pros: Style is great, it is warm, and the pockets are nice and large. Cons: It is a little long (about 2 in) for me, and the fabric picks up and attracts lint like crazy.

Oh damn, I have the same issue. OTR sizes of shirts are way too big for me.
I'm 14×32, but even extra slim 14.5 is waaaay too roomy in the torso

Oh no, not for me. The Extra Slim was far too tight in shoulders for me, and slim fits me well, but could use another 0.25” in the shoulder. Fits me great in the chest and waist, just my linen shirt is as if it was a 15x34 slim or something and mid tagged it is that baggy. Still wear it, but was kind of disappointed, and haven’t been able to shrink it. Will probably see about slimming at the tailor

My latest sweater-shirt-pants from S&M: pink stripe OCBD, gray cardigan, and khaki stretch dress chinos.
A couple of notes, 15 slim is a much better fit all around than 15.5 extra slim fit; must get new shoes.
Yep. I'm an S&M fanboy
(for reference, I'm 6' 155lbs, pants - 30 contemp. with 4.5 cm cuff; cardigan - S, shirt - 15 slim).

Good fit, looks great. Definitely get your height from your legs. Now all you need is some S&M shoes if you wanna go all out

Pics of the new balmacaan. The belt is the perfect touch. Thoughts:

- fabric: It's Zanieri, not much to say here. Good stuff.
- size: Wearing it over the chunky cardigan. Loose all around with the exception of upper back around the shoulders. Though I workout and have a wide back and large shoulders so for the average man, taking the same size as your suit would be perfect.
- belt: Really, it was the only thing missing
- pockets: Literally only had this on a minute. So about the outer pockets. I find they are too high. Too high because the belt covers the top quarter of the pocket making it a pain to slide hands in and out. For future balmacaans, slightly lower pockets, please.
- length: A couple inches below the knee. Great length.
- buttons: For the one person who cares, real horn.
- collar: Love it. Nice and large.
- the wait: Worth it.

Looks thick, rough, and hairy.

The coat is ok too.

Definitely curious to see the range of motion for the upper back when you have a chance, especially while driving. I actually dig the slimmer look, despite you mentioning it being loose. If possible, definitely grab side and back views of the coat while belted.

Thoughts on sizing up? This seems like a coat where the actual size you buy may not matter too much.

Why thank you Movember ended and this is the first time that I'm cool with a moustache. I must be getting old...

I got this solely to wear over a sportcoat/suit in the winter - raglan shoulders and all. If I wasn't wearing the chunky cardigan underneath, I'm sure I'd look like a 10-year-old wearing his dad's coat. In fact, I did try it without the cardigan and that's how it felt. I wouldn't wear a suit and balmacaan on at the same time to drive a car. I would definitely remove one of those layers.

I won't size up. I think it will be too big if I go up (ordered the 42). Again, I'm top-heavy. Deadlifts, rows and lateral raises are my bread and butter. For the average person, ordering their suit/sportcoat size will be plenty roomy.

I'll get my partner to take some pictures later. We received a bunch of packages for business this morning so there's a lot to sort through, repack and ship off.

I actually ordered a size up. We'll see how it fits =X

Looks good, very Magnum PI.

I bought a very full cut Bal and feeling like I was swimming in the coat was my first reaction as well. It looked cool though due to the silhouette, and somehow works with this style of coat.

Now that I have a full cut Bal, I kind of want a version like this. Once S&M opens their MTO coat program, I may go wild with it.

Sounds good on the pictures later.

Yeah I wanna see this too.
