How do they fit?
Herno
Sizing. Consider sizing up if you plan to layer knitwear underneath or have a broader build.
Cut. Slim to regular Italian cut.
Moncler
Sizing. Most shoppers take one size up from their usual (e.g. a US M usually lands on Moncler size 3, not 2), and up again if you plan to layer knitwear underneath.
Cut. Slim, tailored Italian cut through the chest, waist and sleeves.
Sizing says whether to size up or down. Cut describes the intended shape. A deliberately roomy cut doesn’t mean the sizing runs large.
Neither quite right?
