HI Guys,
I was at a Jcrew Factory store yesterday and tried on the Thompson cotton blazer. Please let me know what do you think:

I notice that the vents in the back are still stitched shut. Removing those stitches before taking the samples pics could turn your so/so fit into a pretty good one by releasing the tension in the front.

Since I've been giving a few critic's here and there, I think it's time I turn the table. Earlier today the weather in Chicago was somewhat decent so I decided talk a walk and check out a few stores. First one being BR. Typically I always purchased Small and then had them tailored to slim out the sides and arms. Actually came across two shirts and X-Small and decided to try them. Only have a photo of one of the button downs.
Overall I think I may just go X-Small now in my button downs to save on tailoring. However I better make sure I don't gain much. The first one I tried on was a BR X-Small in tailored slim. Armholes, sleeve width, and waist are pretty much spot on. Wouldn't mind the sleeve length being a bit more like the Small. Otherwise it was a little tight at the chest as you can see from the 2nd button. I then tried on a X-Small in Slim and that gave me enough fabric to reduce the pulling I had at that 2nd button.
Photo of XS Tailiored Slim:
Later in the day I stopped by JCrew to find some X-Small button ups to try on there. Very similar results in the Slim fit as BR's Slim fit button down's. The two suits that I own are MTM so I wanted to see how a JCrew jacket would fit me. Put on a 36R jacket, was also looking for a 34R but that isn't offered in store. Shoulders seem alright. I feel the waist/chest needs to lose 1/2" and slim down the arm width. Arm holes could be a little higher as well.
JCrew 36R:
Opinions?

Chief, shoulders look good. Other than that it's hard to tell with those pics. Could you get some better lighting?
