    Rizm states the chest measurements as 50cm for a size 1, I'd need to alter it to a pit to pit width of 46-47cm for a good fit with some light layering.

    the diagonal pockets flaring out seems to vary depending on how it's worn:




    I may be thinking it is a bigger issue than it really is but if I were to have it taken in from 2 of the back seams then it would obviously pull the pockets closer to the sides.
    dji - i think the pockets flair out on me simply because of the size of my chest (read: muscular read: big)

    i also think the arms fit weird in that other pic because of the asian model's height

    do you have the opportunity to try this thing on yourself?

With the weather getting very wet here in Seattle, I finally gave in and brought my Guidi boots in to a cobbler just the other day.
      I know that we've talked about this topic before, but I would agree. Nothing worse than falling on your ass with your wet CDiem's, CCP's, Augusta's or Guidi's!

        that's the problem charles, I can't try it on before I buy it. the pockets seem to flair out at the side to varying degrees regardless of the model wearing it and if I were to get it taken in from the back then the flaring would probably be more pronounced.

        I think I'll have to pass on it, knowing me if I'm not 100% happy with the fit then I'll just end up selling it...

        gunjah I think you should give that piece a miss, the belt makes it look quite feminine.

                            the fit on the Saberi jeans is great, slim, moderately curved leg, they look perfect worn slightly slouched. I havent tried on the luc jeans, but I'm pretty sure they are not as dope.

                                I really dislike the LUC jeans and the BBS could be quite nice (never seen them in person). Are they super stiff, I assume you're looking for a very substantial fabric.
