I'll reserve judgement on the coat but those trousers look sink on that model. Isn't that dart called a fish dart on trousers? Somethings amiss with it. Still like Woof says, might be ok with a bit of chopping about for a youngster, looks better in blue for me.
"Comically wide pants"....
About bleedin' time...
Where do I sign?

Yes, the pleat doesn't actually fully work. I presume the obsession with these low coin pockets is gimmicky showiness?
Anyway, the US site carries the trousers to size 36.
I had a look in the Westfield, Stratford, London shop and didn't see this Sack Jacket/Suit. If I was a 20 year old poor student I would probably buy my clothes here but as I am not I didn't buy anything for myself. From the photo the suit looks a bit iffy and not for me but I like the direction the company is moving in.
...are my eyes completely shot or is there no vent to speak of with these jackets?
I do seem to remember Uniqlo playing around with the 3/2 a few years back though I do seem to remember those jackets were darted.
I had a sneakie peekie last week but saw NUTTIN' - then again I did have my balaclava on backwards and didn't get past the first display.. shit went EVERYWHERE.. and as a result.. security intervened.. I remain Thee Master of Disguise however and will have another go soon.. well maybe.. if I can be arsed..
The direction is interesting, didn't bring that one up on here because I knew the lack of a back vent (although that was very common until the late 50s) wouldn't be what people like to see on here... I like the trousers as they would look somewhat different but it is a look not everyone can pull off. I'd probably wear it or better I would have worn it when I was younger. A good look for youngsters and miles ahead of the ultra skinny low rise crap we had for the last decade!
Btw, COS rises up the waistbands, too. Some nice looking chinos there. And Land's End trad cut easy iron chinos are worth a look, too. Bought two for € 36,-- as beater trousers and their rise is pretty good. They look pretty much like US marine corps chinos from the 60s (think of Full Metal jacket), athough those are a bit higher I suppose.
