Sizing help

[luxaeterna]

Hey everyone, I'm new here. Can anyone help me out with CCP sizing?

I'm really considering a CCP gloved leather in size 44, but I'm wondering how the leathers fit compared to other pieces.

Also, I'm about 5'8, ~52kg, so if it would be too long, thats a no.

This is the shoulders on a sz. 44 CCP long coat, from 09, but I think he does this same piece every year. The shoulders and arms fit just perfectly and I couldn't be happier with it.

Sorry for the crappy pic, I can take some better, more informative photos later.

I would like a leather to fit really tight, especially in the body, which is why I'm considering a julius, but I also dislike raglan shoulders. Plus, I am absolutely floored by the CCP designs--something I could really wear with a white button down and slacks as well as jeans and a T.

Any and all advice would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Simple, dumb question. Drkshdw - do they do sizes different for the Japanese market? Or can I get something off Yahoo.jp and it'll fit the same as the euro/us market. The only reason I ask, is back when I worked for Cloak - we did different sizing for the Asian consumers...

Feel free to PM me, or answer here.

Cheers

@luxaeterna:

ccp leathers from 2009 are one size bigger than tailored pieces, so if you're a 44 in the coat, you're most likely a 42 in the gloved jacket.

And, please, get rid of this tie next time

is that necessarily true? i know you need to size down on the scar stitch leather, but the 46 in the donkey gloved high collar leather was too small for me when i tried it on at A. i'm a 48 in all ccp outerwear (overlocks fw07 and s/s07). maybe i need to try it on again.

strange, because the 44 in this donkey gloved thing fit like a 46 already!

I found 2009 ccp leathers to be quite roomy on the shoulder/armhole area, and the sleeves are definitely less tight than they used to be.

I manage to compare 2 size 46 ccp jacket (LM/2498 HOIL) from the 2009, different batch, different fitting. Totally inconsistent wack.

and luxaeterna, size 44 might be a little bit too boxy on you. You need to find a size 42 from CCP fe-male.

In my Experience leathers fit one size smaller than the tailored pieces. I am a 46 in any coat or suit jacket I have tried or own so far but the 46 leathers were always too roomy...

Thanks for the input! Tie comment noted, lol.

I guess finding a 42 will prove rather difficult, I suppose the best way would be a custom order and a year long wait...

Has anyone here handled the CCP "classic diverging belt" as shown on A's website? I was curious if that buckle can be adjusted up/down the belt to adjust sizing at all... from the pics it looks like there's only one hole for the buckle, and A told me they've only got a 46 in stock. I'm normally a 48 but danged if I'm still thinking about this... belts, normally being adjustable, might have some flexibility, but I wouldn't assume anything in one of Mr. Poell's works, esp judging from the lack of multiple holes (a feature I certainly wouldn't want to go against by punching my own in this case). Thanks in advance for any info...

the whole point of this buckle construction is the ability to move it to any position you want.

^ thanks much. I thought so but having never handled it in person wanted to check before I considered dropping the ca$h, in case I were to find it somehow fused to the leather. Now I must continue to sweat the purchase...

have a question about ann sizing on her sneakers. from what i know and have tried her sneakers mostly fits true to size. i guess i wont have this luck, but its no chance her older sneakers fits different? so a 41 could accomodate a 42?

have seen two white high top sneakers in 41, exactly the model i want but both are 41... they look pretty old and fucked up so i guess theyre from an older season.

these are the sneakers

thanks.

^ i've tried on a pair of lowtops (can't remember the season but they weren't the ones you linked) and the fw09 triple buckle sneakers and both fit a size large, my 43 feet fit well into a 42.

[Vikeid]

ah, i see. thanks, but it seems its just random. i have a 42 pair and they fit true to size. guess ill just have to hope for the best... but ill see what the ebay seller says.

[ardeetee]

the 2 pairs that i've tried both ran TTS. I tried going down one size and it was too snug for me, I suppose it may stretch out after wear but my toes felt pretty cramped
