As far as pants- I had a pair but sold them. Leg opening was I think 7in. I sold mine b/c the thighs turned out to be a little snug for me. Waist was pretty TTS if I remember correctly. I'd try emailing them, the last time I bought stuff from them (before this current buy) they were very quick at answering my questions.
also- sold my size 30 chinos to thebarsmydestination so he could probably answer some of the chino sizing questions.

I thought they would be TTS and my only concern was thigh. Their chart shows it listed lower than where I usually measure so I couldn't tell. I emailed them to check anyway.

I remember you listing yours (can't remember if I asked you for measurements) so I searched for your thread but you had cleaned it up already. I took a shot on the orange and navy in 30 so my fingers are crossed. I'll pass the deal on if they don't work. I probably should have gotten a 30 and 32 I guess to be safe.

I think I'm in the same situation as you. I don't exactly have chicken legs, so the "super slim" description kind of worries me. But like you pointed out, their (very pixelated) measurements show them measuring the thigh a few inches below the crotch, so maybe it'll work out in the end.

Not sure how well a 32 would have worked, though, as it's a full two inches larger than the 30. I suppose I'll just put it up for sale on B&S if they turn out to be too large for me.

Really excited to get the stuff. Baron Wells just responded to my message from yesterday, which seems pretty fast in light of the amount of orders they must be receiving at the moment.

3sixteen sale looks great, too. I really wish I needed some more outerwear at the moment so that I could justify a purchase...

anyone go to the ervell sample sale? thinking about stopping by later how is it?

sale was mostly a bust, got there fifteen mins before opening and there was only about 15 ppl ahead of me and there was basically nothin left except blazers, collegiate jackets, pants, shorts when i got in there. I took the last ss11 cardigan in white for $140 which is awesome so i made out.

Agreed with the other two. Not a lot there in small sizes. Picked up a pair of docs for $10, and some stuff from older seasons on the cheap. I figure a pair of summer jeans for $40 is a steal.

anyone know if i should wear a 4 or 3 in this jacket? i'm a 35-36-ish in everything and boo Ss and XSs fit me quite well (Ss a bit better perhaps).
EDIT: I guess I'm probably a 4 in light of this thread...

EDIT: has tres bien dropped schneider? it's no longer shown on this page...

I've never understood why OC don't put the measurements of the models on the site. I know, I know, different proportions etc., but even height would help a lot.

bluefly - SHOPSTYLE40 for $40 off orders of $200 or more

the ervell sample sale - lots of size 32 pants. they also have a size M runway sample of this at $300-ish (so probably 70% off). not much else noteworthy at all

yeah that'd really be helpful. i actually saw of their models in store yesterday. apparently they only use in-house models so you could probably call to find out ... still annoying though.
