        How's the fit of FW08 rick double layer tees?

        I'm normally between S and M, or 46 in LUC.
        Can I go wrong with a size M, if I want a normal, not oversized fit?

        Second question is about the length.
        The seller say it is about 90 cm long (which seems to be quite long). Is this normal, or have tees from former seasons been shorter?

          varies by season, for the last couple of seasons they have been cut very long. a size M would fit a 48-50.

            xpost from Yes / No.
            By looking to some auctions / threads I am getting the impression that Rick leathers from FW08 STAG seem to fit really big.
            Sz. Small P2P 48cm
            Sz Med P2P 51cm

            Is that impression right?
            If usually a Size S in Rick is pretty tight (but cool!) for me, but I am looking for a rather relaxed fit for some layering underneath - should I therefore still go tts?

              I like the first one, MoFiya.

                  Hi everybody!

                  First, would like to say hello cause it's my first post on SZ!
                  Then, sorry for my bad english (work in progress :) ).

                  My outfit are most of the time streetwear-oriented, but i would like to discover new things, (becoming really interested by the work of RO...), and i would like to get the following tee (http://www.blackbirdballard.com/Juli...Sew_12326.html) as a first classic piece.
                  I really love the crewneck and the fit looks nice.

                  After reading some stuffs there, I saw that it was often T1=44 and T2=46 for Julius..
                  I'm actually 175cm/65kg.

                  Any ideas for the sizing?
                  Thanks a lot!

                    Good for you for reading up and searching to find that info. first.
                    You'd do better to find your chest size because height/weight doesn't take into account proportion.
                    Here's a guide to measuring your chest and sizing, etc. that you might find helpful. Your height/weight would help determine a proper suit size but for a t-shirt, you just need chest measurements.
                    But as you said, a 1 is generally a 44, a 2 ~ 46 and a 3 ~ 48. Keep in mind these are cut slim.

                      Yes, go with a chest measurement and when beardown says slim, he mean slim.

                        Guys, thanks you for answering.

                        I just took a meter and I'm 90cm/35.5 inches (chest). Could someone tell me what he would have taken with measures not far from mine? Considering that it will increase a bit in a few, I just started boxing :]

                        I saw that the fit was slim, slim, but i'm not looking for something too loose for a basic tee, and actually, I find the fit just perfect as on the picture from Blackbird.

                        thanks :)

                          sounds like you are about a size smaller than me, I wear a 4 in Julius, occasionally 3.

                          sizing always varies by each piece, so I would advice to ask for measurements from the store and compare them to a t-shirt you own.

                            Hello everyone, does Viridi-Anne size 4 = LUC size 52? I'm a true 50 and generally wear 52 (sometimes 50) in LUC tops. I'm trying to get an idea of what size to get for the Viridi-Anne shirt below:

                              /\ No chance. You need at least a 5, and even that might be too tight.

                                ^Yeah, Viridi-Anne runs VERY small. I'm a 48 and a size 4 in a leather jacket was tight across the shoulders.
