New rose pourpre kdt. I was a small. The T2 was just a bit too tight because I like to wear it higher on my arm with my chain d'ancre TGM. So I went with the T3. The T3 is about 1/4 inch larger than the old small.

Sounds like the problem I have too. T2 is now too small. And where I am located, seasonal colors hardly (if any) comes in T3. Sigh.
 
Does anyone have info on sizing of the new kdt? I have always been a small so my SA sent me a T2 in rose pourpre. It's 14 inches instead of 14.5 and slightly tight. Does anyone have a T3 that they can measure? I'm afraid it will be too big . If so it's the end of the line with the kdt for me. [emoji22]

Lovely PbP! That is one fantastic and enviable color! (And RG hardware- I think I am in love!)

For PbP or anyone else- I have a question. If the old small (14.5-ish inches) is slightly too big for me (wearable, but spins a little) , would it be safe to assume I am a T2 in the new sizing? 14" sounds just about right for me.

I think it the old small was just a little too big on you the new T2 will be perfect.

I am having problems with the new sizes as well.
I like the old sizing, size S fits my wrist perfectly. It might get a little bit lose during the winter but it fits perfectly during the summer. After the new sizes came out, my SA suggested me to get size T2 as she said that it should be the same size as the old size S. However, I found it feels a little too snug. I am wondering if it will fit better over time? Will it stretch? This is my first KDT in swift, so I don't really know how the leather will change with use. Or should I just exchange it for a size T3. I am not sure if T3 will be too big on my wrist... Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi! Swift will not stretch. Maybe over many years of wear but not any time soon. I was in the same boat. I went with the T3. It’s not that much bigger..it might spin on you though. I wear mine a bit higher in my wrist with my chain d’ancre silver bracelet below so that helps mine to stay put. But the T2 was really too tight and didn’t look right on me.

Thank you, @Pocketbook Pup. T2 looks ok on me. I am just afraid that if I got a bit swollen during the summer, then it may not fit my wrist anymore. I will go back to the store and try on a T3 if they have it in stock. I hope it will fit better and won't be too loose on my wrist.

Also wondering about sizing...
Now if you are saying the new T2 is slightly smaller than the S used to be, has anybody tried that out for M, i.e. is the new T3 also slightly smaller than the old M used to be? Thanks for your help
