I'm looking for opinions on the fit, i feel like the jacket might be too long on me. Either way i a going to keep the pants, they fit well.

Those creases at the top of your arms look just like the ones in some of my *ahem* unisex shirts and jackets. See if you can put your arms straight out in front of you and hug an invisible person while wearing the jacket, I tried this with some shirts and had to stop half-way or else my shirt would have torn at the armholes, the arm holes were too small to allow that range of movement.

The crease at the waist also suggests that the jacket is too small, personally I've never seen a jacket that looks better with creases in the waist than it would without.

I sort of want jwied to post a HOW DOES MY SUIT FIT thread in mc just to see them all foo out.

Honestly it's sorta too small for you but everyone already said it. The pulling at the arms makes me think it restricts your movement a lot.

The jacket is definitely too small for you dude.

Also either pull the trousers up or get them hemmed, that's far too much break (stacking is not good for suit trousers).

My SNS herning wool knit from tresbien arrived today - but it turns out to be purple instead of sea blue! I'm not sure about how it fits on me and whether or not i should of sized down - the model wears size L and i'm similar size to the model. He wears it kind of loose but i'm not sure if it would look better more fitted - it's kind of loosely fitted. Anyways here are some fit pics, opinions would greatly be appreciated! The weight and quality of the wool is absolutely beautiful though, which makes me kind of sad to have this fit dilema.

Thats a cool color

Nice colour, though I must admit that looking at the mid-to-lower body I think it's a size too big. It is a bit wide in the torso and a tad too long, this would be OK though if it weren't for the ribbing on the bottom that is making the length bunch into itself.

fit on sns looks fine, any smaller and the arms would be too short...

sorry but your steadfast rules are prehistoric. think outside the box man.

english language fail. "I should have sized down"

ha. i should do it. ive never posted in MC, so that would be a fun first (and probably only) post there.

on the pants... obviously i should have them hemmed, but i just got them. Its funny that people are telling me this as if i had no idea that they were too long or that trousers generally look better/are worn without a break.

Uh oh. You're gonna make Kunk start fiending for the CK collection coat again with that pic. Those lanvin knit pants look really nice too. Nice high quality images too. Too bad that site only has recaps and not as many full collections though.

I was checking out the OC sale on Schneider button ups last night and decided I'd need a size 7. Unfortunately they only had up to 6 so I didn't cop. But I left the window open and my girl, without consulting with me, decided to buy one as a surprise birthday present. So a big thumbs up to her, but I fear it'll be too small and there are no returns.

i am still surprised he didn't cop.

I recall someone mentioning that they were only making like 3-4 of those Megaman jackets.

they made plenty but i didn;t see any make it to sale and the retail price was $1700. kunk don't pay retail.
