It seems like MC guys are like....2-4 sizes bigger than the average SW&D guy.Originally Posted by nahneun
FTFYOriginally Posted by Mr. Moo
aside from anorexics and circus troops i doubt you'll find many groups that aren't larger than avg sw&dOriginally Posted by shahanshah
Partly true. But I don't think there are that many SW&D guys that are really really small. I'd wager the vast majority of SW&D guys are in the range of 36-40jacket and 28-32 waist. MC on the otherhand - not everyone is drastically larger, but there does seem to be quite a lot of guys that are 36+ waist and 44+ jackets... at least the MC Buy+Sell makes it seem that way (which sucks for me, I almost never see suits/sportcoats in 36).

There's the back. I really don't think it's too big at all.

You do realize that most mainstream stores in the US don't even sell 28-30 waist pants or a 36 jacket right? At least in Brick and Mortar stores. I'd say thats pretty small.

Dude you're crossing your arms to make it look tighter. Post it zipped from the front with your arms at your sides.Originally Posted by Uncontrol
hahaha, i don't get it. who's he trying to fool? If it's too big, it's too big. It doesn't matter whether or not you deceive styleforum. additional comments on the fit: you mix brown boots with a black jacket, and jcrew suburban workwear (two shirts) with more edgy/moto leather. it's just not working.

Most places do sell 30 waist pants, though yeah 36 jackets are a pain to find in the US. But going by the US isn't a good measuring stick because -

Yep. Elsewhere in the world a size 36 is a small and much less difficult to find. In Japan and some other asian countries a small would be even smaller than a 36

Just found a chart that suggests that Americans men are, on average, 3 inches taller than Japanese men. Surely that explains the difference?
