I don't fit into size 6 jackets bc of my shoulders/lats, the width across the shoulders on the back is too narrow and ***** up the fit as do the shoulders though width wise the jackets are fine. If you're not skinny his jackets don't fit well.

Mother fu****

That sucks. Maybe that coat i got is oversized in that area as he wanted it to be layered.

The cardigan I picked up in size 6 from FW11 was actually great in the shoulders which was very odd.

I'm a 42" chest with very broad shoulders and Schneider knits work for me. Hoping the size 6 coat I picked up will work as well.
What size did you pick up Moo?
EDIT- Is there any big boys that can wear size 7 bottoms? I mean $32 lol......

WTF... I bet I'm a 7 in his pants. Yoox sizing is completely fucked though... 48? Can't be inches... but if it's Italian suit size, then that means it's like a 34" pant waist.. which I think is too small for a size 7...

I picked up size 6... hoping it works, but if not it's only $6 to try. :eek: I really like SS style.

Moo....look at Yoox descriptions. 'the size indicated on the product's label is 7'. Don't pay attention to 'their' sizing. Just see the designer marked size.

Yeah yeah, but then they "equate" it to a "48"... which cannot be right. Any idea on what his size 7 pants measure at the waist? I'm thinking 36"?

Bigger coats should work, it's the jackets that are more fitted then again I haven't tried on a ss jacket in over 3 years so you guys may be in luck.

Guys should post more measurements in this thread. I'll post precise pit to pit and shoulder seam to shoulder seam measurements of my FW11 merino when it gets in to give you guys an idea on outerwear. Never hurts to have an abundance of knowledge floating around. Although some people seem to f up measurements by inches somehow and I don't understand how :fu:
