I'd say that's acceptable but the absolute limit.
^ Agreed, which is why I pulled the trigger on it. It's definitely pushing it though.

Despite the cost, this is still a bargain (plus accepting offers) if the size works out; really nice:

There's a handful of O'C 18-34 button downs and size 38R trousers listed too.
Oh man. I might need to snag those O'C trousers.
edit: damn, they're too short.

I'm sure there's enough fabric to be let out man; any decent tailor will stitch them back in rather than just cutting. They aren't cuffed so it's worth asking...
Here's some more good stuff:

I was half thinking about pulling the trigger on the Chipp but I'll leave that for you RMPM - I have too many already and don't wear them as much as I should
It reminded me of a slightly heavier version of that John Coltrane at the Guggenheim look
I wouldn't hang around too long on that one though
I saw it on this blog which has some nice stuff on it - don't know if that's anyone here

There's been a lot of great 16/34 about recently, Meehawl MacMurrachu has had a few decent pieces up on his ebay. Unfortunately, unless there has been some shrinkage in the sleeves (like the J. Press he previously sold me...) its not worth me taking the risk. I'm a frustrated 15.5-16/33
I sent this to a friend the other day who was t interested - the perfect grey herringbone tweed sack:
