Judging by the measurements on the website the slim jackets run shorter than the contemporary jackets for all Neo jackets. Is that true irl? Doesn't make sense, since there's the possibility to opt for S rather than R if you want to adjust the length.

Yes, but the difference is tiny like 0.5cm - I hardly think you would notice it.

@Burzan is after the contemporary, so am I. I think he previously had the slim but sold it as it came up tight.

You got it, looking for a 40R contemp. Specifically from the FW18 batch.

Here is my understanding.

The difference between slim and contemp is 1cm in length, even for standard cut. Neo adds 1cm again on top of either slim or contemp. So longest would be a neo contemp, shortest would be regular cut slim.

Gauging interest:

Got my eye on something and need to free up funds quickly...

I’ve got one of the new zanieri polo coats size 38 burgundy herringbone. Unworn and unaltered. Would move it for $420 shipped conUSA...
And here are a couple photos:

Deal I had for this fell through. It’s available again. Worn once for a couple hours. $380.

If anyone's looking to get the polo coat, I have the pretty much new Zanieri navy polo coat from last year. Bought at full price and wore like 5 times. Selling as it's not practical for me driving. Size 38S

Because of the weight I can probably ship within Canada for 450 CAD. Still cheaper than new one with 20% code.

1290393


Also, I sitll have Core Navy Suit in 38S slim that I can do 250 CAD shipped.

I'm the market for 40L fall/winter sport coats, tweed or flannel. Ideally browns or grays but open to other possibilities just not anything blue.

If you want to move anything out of your closet hit me up. Shipping is to Canada.
