Hello. I really appreciate your thoughts on clothes and style. Well done.
I wanted to know how you like the Haspel; cut, sizing (small or large), etc. I've seen them on Sierra Trading post and always wondered.
Thanks.
Thanks, I’m glad you’re finding this useful.
In regards to Haspel, I think they’re OK. That jacket is a 38L and pretty much nailed it for me off the rack. As I said, I’ve had no alterations done to it, so it’s worked out. I did have the trousers tapered for a slimmer fit and taken in at the seat.
In regards to their cut, I’d say it’s moderately slimmer than other department store brands in the same quality range. Definitely slimmer than the Lands’ End tailored-fit suiting.
I’ve owned it now for about a year (so, I’ve gotten maybe 1.5 summers’ use from it) and not regretted the price I paid for it on sale.
