    On blazers, I tend to find them to run a tad small. I would size up. I'm a 52/54, and I'm a consistent 54 in forme blazers. Shirts/t-shirts can be more variable, I often (but not always) fit a 52. Forme trousers are fairly TTS.

      any chance someone here knows how to size DVN shoes? sizing from the past couple of seasons seems to be all over the place, based on what litle i've found.

      i know these aren't everybody's cup of tea but i figure it's worth a shot

        CCP boot sizing

        Anyone have a read on sizing for CCP boots?

        I have 3 derbies in size 8, and have found a pair of boots that I might get. Was wondering if there is a one-to-one size match or do the boots run larger (e.g. noticed Ledger had a pair of boots, size 9, up that are a size which he said was more of a fit for a 43).

        I usually wear size 42 in footwear.

        thanks/d

          D, you and I are the same size. I've found that you should wear the same size for CCP boots & derbys (through trial & error). I went up to a CCP 9 on my 2010 kangaroo tornadoes as I was told they fit small but they have stretched out a bit and now I wish I had gone with the 8. I like my boots to fit snug.

              I concur with this statement. Though, I would be very wiry depending on what style, year, etc. You just have to go with the actual measurements of the particular pair. Nothing beats trying on a pair in person. I've had a pair of derbies that were a little too big from one year and another year fit very well.

                I wear a 52 in CCP blazers, what size should I aim for with his button-downs?

                Thanks!

                  If I wear size 44 Guidi 995's, then I should fit into size 8 Carol Christian Poell derbies from the 2010 collection, correct?

                    BBS J1 High Neck Leather



                    What should a regular small / 46 go for?

                    I've been receiving conflicting sizing suggestions and confused on what size I should buy...I've been hearing BBS is made slimmer so I should size up, but I've also heard that I should go TTS.

                    How would an M fit on me? UGhghh please help.

                    For Reference, I'm 174cm tall / 68 kgs btw.

                      Ordinarily I would recommend a size S, but this season (A/W12) BBS tops and outerwear have gone the way of MA+ sizing with everything fitting super slim (e.g., M = true S, EU48 = true EU46, etc.). This is bizarre because I have found the exact opposite to be true with several of the pants, which seem to be running larger than tagged.

                      That being said, most of the boutiques that could conceivably still have this jacket in stock this late in the season (SS13 stuff will start hitting stores next month) provide actual measurements if you email them. The leather on this jacket is also has a bit of stretch to it. If you end with one that's snug, it'll become more comfortable with wear.

                          If it's cow leather, you should be ok staying TTS. If it's horse leather, size up.

                            Possibly looking for a Julius pant new collection but I have no idea about jean sizing. For example, I'm wearing size 31 DRKSHDW, slightly tight. So I have to take size 3 ?

                              I have two pairs of DRKSHDW jeans both fit me perfectly. One is tagged 29, the other is tagged 32...
                              You may want to just provide your waist measurement to ask this question.

                                I'm talking about this pant. And my waist measurement is 89 cm.
