I ordered extra-slim shirts thinking those have the same fit as Milano from BB based on measurements. But now I’m doubting myself. Does anyone have experience comparing the two? FWIW size is 15/32

Measure your shirt and compare. We have full garment measurement specs posted.

I wear Milano fit from BB, and order the Slim Fit shirts from S&M. Same size - 16 1/2 x 33. Hope this helps.

Follow-up question. If an order hasn't shipped yet, can I change the fit? is there an email/phone I could use for details.
I'm in the US and I'm trying to avoid returns,

Seeing the other response , I may just be adding to the confusion here, but I take 16/33 in both bb milano and SM contemporary, and find them pretty comparable. Measurements will probably be your best bet.

The waist measurement is what's tripping me up.. non of the 3 fits have the same fit as the waist on my milano. Chest is a toss-up between Slim and Extra Slim. I was considering changing my order from Extra-Slim to Slim for safe measure.. I hate returns.

What's the waist on the milano?

In my experience between the fits, the SM contemporary does fit me with a bit more room at the waist, but still pretty comparable .

Thank you, I’ll order slim as middle ground and I can go up/down from there.
