Wool Plaid Model 3 Sport Coat | The Armoury

I think it's really beautiful. I love deep, dark olive greens and sometimes have a hard time finding tailoring in that color.

Separately, that sport-chino restock got depleted real quickly.

Hello everyone!

Can anybody give me advise in terms of sizing of Model-1 compared to Model-3 - should I take the same size in Model-1 or is it smaller? I am 48 in Model-3 and it fits me nice

We suggest taking the same size in all of our Armoury by Ring Jacket models. I wear the Model 3 in a 48 as well as the Model 1.

Understood. I love muted pieces with subtle patterns. My favorite way to dress because it has just the right amount of visual interest--not in your face, not dull.

Saw this in person last week and was very tempted. It's stuck in my mind. Very nice jacket.

I love the creamy-colored buttons against the olive cotton. You used similar buttons on the olive linen 3PB. For some reason that color combination just speaks to me. Also love the vintage look of the lapels.

Totally agree, it works great on these casual pieces. Gianluca uses some great dark green buttons on bespoke trousers, but i think these jackets really benefit from the lighter colors.

How long are the sleeves on a medium jacket?

Is that navy crewneck you're sporting under the Road Jacket in that article this season's Drumohr? Can the Drumohrs be dry cleaned, or are they hand wash only? In any case, looks great.

It's actually one of the original summer knits. I have the navy Drumohr polo and i've yet to wash it. I also generally wear it over a tee of some kind to prolong that. But i'd imagine I would dry clean it when the time comes. I don't really trust myself with cleaning finer wool like that.

Thanks, very helpful. Btw, I tried one of the original summer knits. I liked it fine but always thought the neckline was too low, so it didn't look great on me without a collared shirt underneath (particularly with my long neck). I appreciate that the Drumohrs have a higher neckline--it looks smarter and it enables me to wear the crewneck with a collared shirt or just a tee underneath. Huge improvement, imo.

Wow, those new linen jackets are sized very small. I’m a 42/52 and even XXL seems too tiny. Huh.

They're built different (in Asia). ?

I figured this out when the sweatshirt video came out.
Marc and Alan saying they are 38/48 jacket size and wear size 2.
Me being size 40/50 end up wearing size 5.

How much give do the Drumohr knits have? Seems a touch tight across the traps which affects the sleeve length
