...Like Nas & Puffy said, "Hate Me Now"

Ok, so I dig some of the blazers put out by Mr. Ankle Fetish (don't worry, not interested in surrendering to that degree), but I hear various reports of the sizing running rampantly small/harsh. I'm a 38 in Costume National (which I hear runs a size small), and I can slink into a 36 in most other stuff. 31" waist, 5' 9.5". Looking for some hands-on info, ideally, or at least a reference point to get me started. Where do I fall in the 1,2,3,4 sizing? I don't want my bridal tux to make my hips look fat.

Does a "1" correspond to one foot too short pant?

Is a "2" a two foot too short pant?

Def a size 1 (if you like the fitted look)

size 2 is like a large 38/small 40

My suit is size 2 and fits as I described (38/40)

I see... So, 1 = 36-38, 2=38-40, etc. Sounds good for a 1; thanks for the advice peeps.
