In the thighs.
They fit, but I just don't like trousers to fit that slim in general, especially in the summer.


The size 6 has a 12in thigh. I got the 5 and it was too tight

@Pangolin the jazz looked nice but the pleats and rise made me see much diaper butt

Agreed, I would only get it in the tropical wool version. Better drape, better butt!

What about the crystal trousers? They looked like a roomier amor to me.

Fwiw, I love estaicized waists. I think the exhausts would be perfect if they had that aspect to them.

yes and yes

Awesome, thanks. Did you get hit by customs fees?
Anyone pickup the Amor trousers? How's the fit? Skinny? Straight leg? Debating it, just not sure how I feel about the elasticized waist...not finding a lot of photos of the trousers modeled.

Think this is the amor: http://www.farfetch.com/shopping/me...item-10987933.aspx?storeid=9750&ffref=lp_8_2_

Iterating Schneider, figuring out what shirt works best with this. Also fishing for opinions on the break of these pants.

Since there seems to be a lack of Amor fit picks, here's an x-post from the WAYWT thread. I'm wearing a size 3 in the Amor trousers in black tropical wool. I'm 5'9" and ~120lbs. I love the elasticized waist because I sometimes have issues with pants' waists being too large even at the smallest size. The fabric is lovely but this almost goes without saying. It is a soft black with a very subtle navy-ish hue (to my eyes) in direct sunlight. The thighs are not tight on me but I don't have big quads or anything. The leg tapers sharply from the knee to a ~6in hem opening, so not recommended for those with proportionately larger calves. Easily my favorite buy of the season.

Thought I posted these already, but maybe not. Amor trouser in size 3. I'm 5'9", ~135, 30 waist. They're a pretty slim fit with a small leg opening, as mentioned earlier but nothing extreme. It's a nice cut that wears easy for how slim it is. I think the elastic waist helps.

@conceptual 4est that's really good, also shows how the front dart on the polo looks in person, which is hard to grasp from product photos.

Thanks, and yeah the "Poison" is an awesome shirt and completely slept-on this season. There is a reason so many retailers picked it up that wouldn't normally wouldn't stock a short sleeve polo-type shirt!

Wearing a 3. It's a little snug in the shoulders for my personal taste, but I prefer to go with a 3 sometimes instead of a 4 because of the added length that comes with sizing up.
