Belstaff sizing is a nightmare from my experience so always ask for measurements.
I have a 52 and a 56 in two non Bond related Belstaffs - crazy
I agree entirely, Welshboy. I love Belstaff's stuff but buying anything from them online is a nightmare. I normally wear a size 31" waist. I have Belstaff jeans in 32" and 33" and both fit me perfectly!
For those of you lucky enough to have the funding available, here's a Matchless jacket with a great Buy it Now price. I'm kicking myself for buying this guitar, otherwise, this would have been mine.... http://m.ebay.com/itm/122043118527

Tom Ford Harrington size 48. Not the QoS version which was based on the Baracuta G4 but more the traditional Baracuta G9. Has a good BIN price (well good for Tom Ford).
all I can say when it comes to TF cardigans is that you have to be sure this wasn't thrown in the washer machine at some point. Not only does it fade the wool, it makes this particular wool become rock hard, losing all softness and pliability. And it shrinks to a baby sweater. Pics make this piece look really worn so just be careful.

OK, thanks for the info, that's what I was worried about
One thing that sticks out to me is that these sweaters were Italian sized 46, 48, 50, 52, etc. (the size tag is located inside on the left shoulder - while you're wearing it). These weren't sized S, M, L, etc. That makes me take pause here.

Good advice.
Happened to me twice with John Smedley pullovers... It was impossible to wear them.
Seller told me it was a 48 but I have asked to clarify in light of Welshboy's eagle eyes...
Yeah I could be wrong with my eyes lol
I'm seeing a faded 5 in the size field as well. Font looks the same as the 5 in the model number. I don't think any amount of fading or squinting is going to make the number in the size field look like a 4, or at least not the same 4 as the one used in the model ID#.
