How do drakes suits fit btw?
slim so that I need to size up?
im a 38 but could use more room around my back/shoulders.
how different is the patter sizing up? I’ve been enjoying my cotton Eidos casual suiting a lot and think another cotton is what id prefer at this point.
Anyone? The overshirts in medium it me well. What size suit should i go with, 38 or 40, for a fuller fit (trying to avoid slim cut). And what about shirts for that matter, go with 15.5 or size up to 16? My concern is with the shoulders across the back. For pants, some added thigh room would be preferred.
Their shirts fit narrow in the shoulders so I usually size up.
I copped the brown cotton twill suit recently — I went with 38. I wear a 38 contemporary in Spier and Mackay and found the fit to be somewhat similar (i.e. they’re both pretty good). The trousers are fairly tapered (7.5” leg opening) but definitely have enough leg room. I posted a photo wearing the jacket a few pages back.

This is probably not the most helpful but over the years I've found sometimes a 38 and sometimes a 40 is better for me in Drakes suits and sports coats. This season 38 was a better fit in what I tried on at the NY shop. Shirts I usually go 39 but will grab a 40 if it's the last available, not a huge difference but the ideal fit would probably be a 40 neck with a 39 body. I'm a medium in the overshirts too.
Did anyone actually get any items from the Drakes x ALD collaboration? Was wondering about the quality and fit, can’t locate any pictures of someone wearing any of it out in the wild.
Then again, even at 50% off, they don’t seem to be flying off the shelves, at least on Drake‘s page.
