The Measure Of A Man...

Hello.

My name is Jim and I'm a 15/33 when it comes to shirts and pretty much a 38R for suits.
I like a US 10 on my feet and I'm pretty much easy going about knitwear - 'M' seems to mainly do it for me.


Pop your measurements on here too and then if anything comes up for you then somebody will let you know.

Best -

As interesting as this is, I cannot help but think that these are not the measurements by which men are judged.

Re: The Measure Of A Man...

l can get clothes locally but i'll put myself down for shoos. l want vintage NOS American longwing gunboats, that's it.

Size 8 D/E U.S
Size 7 E/F U.K



l would really like a `sacksuit' but i'll probably end up getting an ill fitting coat if l order online. Such a bleedin' shame, i've actually wanted a sacksuit for a few years now, l think it would really suit me. The structureless look really appeals to me.

I wouldn't know fully canvassed if it landed in my soup I'm afraid.

I have always been lucky with Brooks Brothers.

Re: The Measure Of A Man...

I'm a UK 9.5 who finds that a US 10 usually works best, despite what the online experts often say about the US/UK conversion rate.  You?
