I'm a medium in most things and take a 38 jacket for most brands (5'10", 155-160). I think trying the small size is worth it. You won't have problems with the sleeves or waist, but the pit & shoulders may be an issue depending on how broad/thick you are up top. I have stick limbs but my torso is a bit bigger, and my small size field jacket has enough room for me to maneuver around.

Anyone out there willing to help me (an Australian) pick up a Thomas Mason shirt to add on to their order? And then ship it to me?

Think about it - my $50 shirt could help bring you quite a bit closer to getting free shipping (for orders >$150)!!

The store receipt included in the package that arrived today had it at $20-30%. I <3 J. Crew.

If someone can find me either of these in size small, I would be so grateful: L-R: Secret wash Cedar tartan, Featherweight flannel Winston tartan.

The Cedar tartan should be very easy to find; the Winston tartan I've been bonking myself over the head for not picking this up when I could've. If someone else finds a small of that, I will give you an internet medal.

Anyone seen this shirt in stores in a size L?




Or how about an alternative dark green buffalo plaid shirt?
