Hey everyone, I got this blazer a while ago and wanted to see what everyone thought about the fit. It's the ALD collaboration version of the Herringbone Harris Tweed Games Blazer.

It's comfortable but definitely slimmer than what I was anticipating so I can't layer under it like in the lookbooks. Curious to hear everyone's takes.

Looks cool. A bit short, but not severely. Unbutton those top two buttons though, homeboy. Let your chest breathe.

Thanks and for sure! Gotta be able to feel the breeze.

Nice. What size is it?

Its a size 38 and I'm usually in-between a S-M in regular clothes. Haven't been able to try other Games Blazers in person so hard to say if the ALD version was cut slimmer than usual.

I have an older ALD collab suit in brown cotton that seems to fit normal for size 38. Maybe the wool fabric is thicker and wasn’t accounted for. IMO the size looks fine. Maybe have the lapel professional ironed to have a more expressive roll. I just used hot steam on mine because I felt comfortable messing with cotton. Unsure about wool with lining. May post a fit pic later, still need to have mine altered.

Anyone willing to proxy in London sale please?

 

[Dancrow]

I’d be really happy if anyone is able to proxy any games tailoring in size 38 tops or 30/31 pants from the London sale.

I popped along with a friend. Couldn't really justify grabbing anything myself.

Less well stocked than the one in April, mostly the same stuff, a few larger discounts i think but may be wrong there.

Missed the above but there were a fair few bits of games tailoring summery stuff in 38-42. Friend grabbed a moleskine games jacket in 38.

By 9.45am supplies were already dwindling though tbh and unlike the last sale they said they wouldn't be adding new stuff day by day.

So a bit disappointing really

Thanks for this!
Hope someone will take a snap of the latest price list *fingers crossed*

Ah i should have done, the discounts were quite large! Eg games jackets were £325

I have not gone to the sale so I don’t know anything what’s in there. I found this off another place but thought rest of the class would like to see.

 

[astrobuoy]

Ill let you know if it runs smol

how'd the sizing work out for you?

 

[mmmargeologist]

Never got it. They canceled it on me

 

[astrobuoy]

what?? did they double-sell it or something?

I went to the sale this morning and was quite disappointed! It was essentially the same stuff at the last Archive Sale, not a huge selection. I might pop by again later in the week to see if they've added anything to it.
