I bought that one off Zach - it is a beauty - I wore it only the other day
I know that feeling about sizing - seems to me a lot of the older shirts are 15 1/2 neck - few beauties that Oli posted back there - love that Airmen window pane plaid one- reminds me of that cracker that Tom has - I think it's an Eagle
That was I got was a brooks brothers one - I was staring at Sancho's picture thinking yeah wow that is nice - and then was thinking "hang on ..that looked similar to the one I got off Zach" - then checked the old Etsy picture and the tie etc was the same - same shot - so must be the same BB one.
It's like the Weejun says "beware of coveting your own stuff "
Cheer up though Sancho - I think they're still out there.

That's a great jacket. Perfect for all your nighttime beach parties.
/\ thanks Wombles, just a humble windbreaker and not a glorious tweed or Topsman or Leesures, but I like it but if it's too small it'll probably be on its way to Hotlanta next ....
still recovering from Saturday's little fiesta en la playa
Heck yeah! I'll wear my Bean windbreaker and meet you at Garcia's on the intracoastal!
Does anyone find that most of those mid century cotton-blend-poplin harringtons run pretty small? I guess they were supposed to be worn really short, at waist length, but I've sort of given up on the whole sizing thing and will wear anything from a 38 to 42 depending on the fit. I actually sort of prefer them on the blousy side; as long as the sleeves aren't too long. There's a deadstock Arrow brand "Hi-Pin" golf jacket on Etsy in a burnt orange color that I'm in love with, except it's about $50-60 higher than it should be. I find these jackets are the most difficult to get an accurate read on, size-wise; especially the generic alpha labels.

What's your take on fit, WM? Do you do the Rebel look and wear them waist high or go for longer and fuller cut fits?
