    Looks like we're the same chest size - I'd reccomend a 3.

      you'd better try it on as the size may vary a lot

          Has anyone tried this Damir Jacket:
          http://www.ln-cc.com/damir-doma-mens-linen-blend-high-collar-jacket/invt/dam010045bla/


          Measurements suggest it fits about a size large, but I figured I'd check first.

            I'm true 44. Should I go 0 or 1 in Individual Sentiments long sleeve tees?

              General rule of thumb I'd say is 1 = 44, 2= 46, etc. My experience with them is that they fit rather true to size, so depends if you want it a little looser or tighter. I'm not sure which one you're talking about in particular - but I had a bit of trouble with the sleeves fitting perfectly.

                On the slighter side of 44 and ~176cm, and about to start searching for a Drksdhw Tie Hoodie from this year's FW11 women's collection and a bit stymied on sizing. Given how it's meant to drape measurements are not much help, and I've no prior experience with RO to draw on.

                  Thanks k, I'm thinking to get this sweater.
                  I thought IS runs a little bit big, cause the smallest size of IS is -0, which to me indicates 0 should be matching 44.
                  Help needed!

                    IS

                    My personal experience....IS size 0 generally equates to a 44, and so forth....
                    -0 is closer to a big 42 / small 44...

                      ^^ Are you saying that it runs small through experience or because they have 0 sizing? It's common in my experience for Japanese labels to have 0 sizing because of their clientele. You would see 0 - 3 sizes in Japanese stocklists and 1 - 5 sizes in Western stocklists.

                      Like I said, in my experience I've found their stuff to fit true to size, but their clothing isn't exactly 'precision fitting' - so I wouldn't stress about it too much.

                      edit: damn you ABS, you replied before me! Haha. I guess we stand at odds with each other. I have an IS coat in size 2 and I'm a 46 in most cases. Hmm.

                        through experience...every item i own (cut&sewns, jacket, pants) from IS is a 0, and i would say i'm a big44.

                          They have size "minus 0" as smallest size, whereas the most Japanese brands have "0".
                          Anyway, very appreciate ur help.

                              Misdirection, my post was directed at SlightRight. Sent my post before I saw yours.
