Does anyone happen to a have a bunch of good fit pictures with only one top piece being worn (like only one shirt, no jackets etc)? Pm me if you would like to share them.

My bomber definitely is not too small, guys, although I can easily see how you'd get that impression. I actually have a pretty nice point-and-shoot camera, but I can't use it worth ****, and my photos always come out looking real bad. The ToJ, especially: I tried taking photos with a few different angles, and the jacket has always come out looking flat and overly-tight.

I actually have a good deal of room in the shoulders (about .5" on each side) and the chest area (1.5" on each side), and can easily layer a heavy W+H sweater beneath it without feeling constricted at all. The ToJ is admittedly a tiny bit shorter than I'd like for it to be, but I think it turned out alright. My wide hips mess with the proportions as well.

It's definitely not a size too small, though. I'll try to take a different photo under natural lighting when I get the chance. It should turn out a little better, lol.

Got it. Thanks.

Xhale, I think you're a little too "buttoned up" for that fit of yours. The outfit looks pretty casual, but buttoning the shirt all the way up throws it a bit off, I would say.

I thought the cardigan looked nice and for some reason thought it was a cheap one (sup reedo) because he was a student but was very surprised how nice the color and fit were so now it makes sense.

jslade it looks fine, probably just like mine

I hate croppped jackets with untucked shirts like that though (that's what is making everyone say it's too small too)

It is green, and I'm not sure which season it's from, because I bought it with a bunch of other stuff from some du a while back...It's a really nice soft merino wool, but made in china :(

@Jet, I spend waaaaaaaay outside my budget for a poor college student. :embar:

I figured since you're on here, a thousand apologies for the doubt.
