Thanks man, and thanks to everyone else who provided measurements too. I thought the only colors available for the Japanese selvedges were blue, white, pink and blue university stripe? What other colorways are there?

Sleeve from seam to end of cuff - 27 inches
Across front 9 inches below pit - 21.5 inches
Across shoulders from top sleeve seams - 18.5 inches
Length from bottom of collar to back hem - 31 inches

Has anyone got or tried the mint green short sleeve sweatshirt that I think was in Key West collection? Measurements on ebay look a bit on the big side, chest on medium is 22.5 inches across and on large 24 inches across.

I'm usually a large in RRL and thinking of sizing down?

Looks like I'll be digging up a 20% off coupon and heading to the Aurora outlet... Nice stuff!

Edit: Do RRL shipments generally head to outlets around the same time? I suppose I should call first.

Stopped by Wrentham Outlet tonight. They had a good amount of RRL there. Lighthouse and Outlaw collection shirts, some cords, some limited edition pants, a really cool military poncho style coat that was limited to 20 that i almost picked up.

My chest is 40" too, I would like to know if size medium which is 20,5 p2p in some rrl oxfords could be unwearable by me. Do you think in 100% cotton shirt it's better have at least 2" more than your chest measument?

Just got my first RRL jeans, a straight leg in a faded light blue. I am very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the denim and the construction. I am no expert but they feel as well made and substantial as any Japanese jeans I have bought.

Just one thing, size down like crazy. I generally wear 33-34 actual waist. i got the 32 in straight leg and I wish I should have got the 31.

yes. My absolute minimum is 2.5 or 3" of chest clearance with buttondowns (not 100% sure of my actual chest measurement, hence the two numbers). The way the shirt will fit is also dependent upon the cut of the armholes (how high and wide) among other things, but for almost all modern shirts I've found those numbers to work well as the low range. I have a 36" or 36.5" chest, and 19.5" across from pit to pit is my tightest fitting shirt that I'm comfortable wearing (and I wear most things fairly slim fitting).

Nice cop! I want that coat. I want to echo El Duderino. If anyone happens upon a medium (42r) please PM and I will similarly pay proxy and shipping. Cheers.
