Do you size up on the trousers? Bought these in dark brown in a 32 (my normal size) and they felt restrictive in thigh/groin area. The fit looks great here though.

Looking at their IG and I'd wager they've recently contracted a product photographer and a social media manager.

Thank you, these are a 34 contemporary but altered to a 32 waist.

I've always bought 34 contemporary from Spier and didn't notice any difference on these vs the others in my collection.

The V looks very wide/open which combined with the close fit to the body looks a bit feminine. Try pulling the sweater down so the top of the V closes up the gap between the shirt collar.

Here's mine from the 2021 season, sleeves are still trimmer than I'd like but proportionally, I find the rest OK.

A lot!

Thanks. Yeh, I think I’ll keep it and try giving the arms and shoulders a gentle stretch to add just a little extra room.

Just received the brown & beige Harris Tweed SC. Really pleased with it. This is my first purchase of a Neo jacket since they raised the armholes and I much prefer it.

Certainly looks more appealing. Why did they change all their sport coats to 3 sleeves buttons?

I think someone mentioned that it was more traditional, but could be wrong... I preferred the 4 buttons, but it likely saves them a fair amount of $$$ saving 2 buttons per sportcoat sold

Anyone have any experience with the Guabello midnight navy 130s or the VBC navy serge? Considering getting a dark navy MTO suit and looking for advice on which one is closer to a true navy for a conservative business setting?

Also curious if anyone has tried the unpadded shoulder option on the standard suit jacket in MTO? Do they compensate by raising the armhole or is there more space in the shoulder?

I assume you mean SM and not SS.

spring/summer?

Presumably Spring/Summer...if so, I cannot echo the sentiment, thus far.

Yes spring summer. You don’t like them?
