State your size men!

And just plain tiny ...

5'3" or so (wouldn't know; haven't been measured for many, many years) y approx 115 pounds.

My main interest is in 30s fashions, though i have some 20s stuff that's great also. I prefer the brit/euro cuts to american. I am also a fan of the 60s minette look.

35 S jacket , though i can also handle 36.

~37-38 through the chest; max 30" length from top of collar (but even that's pushing it). Perfect shoulders are 16.5, though i'm not choosy. I can go up to 18, and as low as 15.5 without looking too silly. Arm length 31.5-32.

Trousers 30" waist for comfort, and about 29" inseam. I like 'em baggy and pleated. Minimum 20" around the cuff.

Hat size 7 (can get away with 6 7/8)

Shoes 6-6.5

Shirt 14, 14.5 or 15 neck works. And 32 arm generally comes out about right.

I'll bet you guys never see stuff this small in vintage stores, eh? lol lol [sings] Oh it's grand to be short and into vintage clothing!

My sizes.

In suit I need a 38. But I am rather long 182 cm and with a 30 waist ( 29 if they go up really high). Innseem

A 9 in shoes.

hmm. I am bad at knowing my sizes in American sizes, cause I guess that is what you need?

I am looking for suits, and pants and actually everything. I prefer 40s style but also like the 50s.

Great idea, by the way.

Height: 6'2"
Weight: 175
Jacket: 39L-40L (Though I've found 38L's that fit me!)

44R any vintage

My off-the-rack size is 44R

I'm especially interested in Double-breasted or single-breasted 3-piece suits, pinstripe or solid color, particularly the heavier-weight gaberdine or flannel fabrics. It gets cold up here on Lake Superior. Here are some measurements in inches:

Coat:
Shoulders (widest point) 19.5-20.5
Chest (1"below armpits) 46-47
Waist (at center button) 43-44
Length (top collar to hem) 31.5-32
Sleeve (shoulder seam to cuff) 24-25
Sleeve (armpit seam to cuff) 16.5-17

Trousers:
Waist 38-40
Inseam 31
Overall length 43 or more (for high-rise)

Shirt:
17 x 35 or 36
Double cuffs

Hat:
7-1/4
high crown, 2" brim or larger

Might as well join in...

Height - 6' 4"
Weight - 240 lbs.
Suit - 48L (modern)
Trousers - 43" waist, 36" inseam
Shirt - 17 1/2 neck, 36 sleeve (yep, I'm all arms and legs. Least it isn't as bad as when I had a 32" waist)
Shoes - 12B
Hat - 7 5/8

My preference is toward the 1930s with a distinct Anglophilia. (Although I am very much at home wearing Western and Landhausmode as well.)
