Some answers to frequently asked questions which you may find helpful. Please don't hesitate to contact us via the support chat button at the bottom of the page if you need further assistance.
No Man Walks Alone recognizes that proper fit is essential to fully enjoying your clothing and footwear.
In addition to the manufacturer size, we provide measurements for all sized items. We take all these measurements ourselves, using the exact same methodology within each type of item. For example, we measure all shirts the same way, regardless of the maker.
We believe that the ideal fit can best be achieved by comparing the measurements of your own best fitting items with those of the product you’re interested in purchasing on our site.
We use Virtusize to help you find the best fit for an item, by comparing it to other items you own. Click on the "Size & Fit" link on a product page and follow the simple steps.
Clicking the three bar "hamburger" icon in the upper left opens additional options including converting from centimeters to inches
We are also always happy to assist you with any sizing questions you may have. Please do not hesitate to contact customer@nomanwalksalone with any questions.
Finally, any item that is not marked as "Final Sale" is eligible for our generous return policy, guaranteeing you free exchange (if you need a different size) or a easy return (if you don't like it) so shop with peace of mind!
Emphatically: YES. Garments are made by human hands, manufacturing has standard variances and fabrics have various tensile properties : all these factors combined will always result in variance between posted measurements and actual garment measurements. For knitwear in particular, it's almost impossible to get the same measurement twice on the same garment because of how knit stretches in all directions, let alone on different garments from the same batch.
The measurements we provide are NOT contractual. We take them to help you shop and choose the right size for you. We can never guarantee sizing and measurements, except for MTM garments that are custom made.
Online shopping is not always easy and we recognize that it often helps to see clothes worn and discussed in more details.
We hold a weekly livestream on Instagram every Friday at 1:30pm ET during the new arrivals seasons, and that is always a great opportunity to see us interact with the styles we just released, explain what we like about them and why we chose them. Since it's live, it is also a good forum to ask questions.
We post all the past livestreams on IGTV (Instagram TV), so you can take a look at the past episodes to see if we're discussing a maker or item that you want to know more about!
And of course, we are always happy to answer any questions you may have via the chat support button below, or by email at customer@nomanwalksalone.com
While we do not operate a traditional store that you could browse, we have a showroom area in our office on West 37th St in NYC where we can host private shopping appointments.
All of the stock is on location so we can pull anything you'd want to try, but the merchandise is not set up in a store setting for easy browsing. All the stock that we have in the showroom is also shown online.
We can schedule private shopping appointments Mon-Fri from 10 to 6pm.
With makers from all around the world, spanning different disciplines and design ethos, there is inevitably some variation in the sizing notation used and what those sizes compare to.
While we aim to have detailed measurements for every garment through Virtusize, and offer sizing guidance in the product description, below is an incomplete guide to loosely converting some of our brands that don't use a familiar sizing convention into the standard US sizing of Small, Medium, Large, etc.
Maker | XS | S | M | L | XL | XXL |
Blurhms | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | |
Fujito | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | ||
GRP | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |

Our G. Inglese shirts are sized in neck sizes, in centimeters. The sizes are not chest sizes in inches. The two numbers are unrelated.
So you would need to refer to your usual shirt size (neck size). A typical US neck size 15.5" would be roughly a size 39 (15.5 x 2.54). The collar will be slightly larger when fresh out of the box - this is normal and is because the shirtmakers are taking into account potential shrinkage.
The fit of our G. Inglese shirt is moderately slim through the body. Most people take their usual size but some of our customers prefer to take the next size up for a more comfortable fit.

We prefer to not communicate shoulder point-to-point measurements on G. Inglese shirts, not because we don't want to take them, but because we think they can be quite misleading to anyone who is not familiar with how G. Inglese shirts are constructed.
Like a few other Southern Italian shirt makers, Inglese builds his shirts with a rounded sleevehead (attached and shaped by hand) that is cut to drape over the top of the humerus to provide maximum comfort and mobility (so the entire arm is inside the sleeve). On a properly fitting G. Inglese shirt, the seam sits around the acromion (end of the clavicle) and not at the end of the shoulder like most commercially available shirts.
Because we work with small makers who have limited capacity, and because we hate to waste their talent on products that will sit unsold, we always buy small quantities of every item - sometimes only one in each size.
That means, of course, that sizes can sell out quickly.
While we typically do not get any more merchandise during the season from these makers, we offer a generous return policy and it is possible that the color and size you want may come back as an exchange or return. We recommend using the restock notification function on the product page to be automatically alerted if/when that happens.
Due to the nature of clothes and fashion accessories, and the normal wear and tear for these types of products, we warrant our products to be free from defects in workmanship and materials, under normal residential use and conditions, for a period of one (1) month from the original purchase date.
You must inspect your order and let us know within 48 hours of its delivery if you noticed any defect. Once we approve the return, we will send you a return label (only if shipping from the US).
We agree, at our option during the warranty period, to repair any defect in material or workmanship or to furnish a new product in exchange without charge. Such repair or replacement is subject to verification of the defect and proof of purchase.
We very much value the support provided by customers who place orders at regular price, as this is essential to the survival of the business. It is also the nature of the retail business to mark down unsold items to make room and fund the next season. That said, we understand the frustration of seeing an item marked down right after a purchase.
If a product is purchased at regular price, is still available in the size purchased and is marked down within 10 days of that purchase, we will offer a price adjustment upon request. The price adjustment is processed as store credit for the amount of the price difference. Please note that the same size has to be available online in order to receive the credit.
We do NOT offer sale price adjustments on any item included in a Sample Sale, Private Sale or Clearance Sale.
You can start your exchange or return process online and follow the directions on screen. You will be able to choose between shipping your items back to us or dropping them off at one of Happy Returns' return locations. You won't even need to box them back up for that. Check the locator page to find open return bars near you.
Staying up to date with all the exciting developments at No Man Walks Alone is easy - simply sign up for our email newsletter through the field at the bottom of the screen and we will send you regular emails with highlights from the store as well as digests of interesting articles from our Newsroom.

We are excited to offer MTM (made-to-measure) and MTO (made-to-order) tailoring, made for us in Tuscany by Sartoria Carrara and based on patterns and models that we developed exclusively for No Man Walks Alone.
The way the MTM program works is based on try-on jackets and trousers that we keep in our New York showroom.
We modify the fit across a variety of criteria, including factors like posture or lower/dropped shoulder, trousers front/back balance, etc.... and submit the order to Sartoria Carrara.
We have pre-selected many fabrics across our favorite mills and have priced them out into groups from 1 to 5. For example an MTM jacket starts at $1,320, and an MTM suit starts at $1,670.
This is not a bespoke process and we do not offer intermediary fittings. We rely on the MTM model and blocks that we have designed for our in-house line, and there are many customization options available.
This process takes typically 8 weeks or so from order to delivery. We take a 50% deposit on order and the balance on delivery.
