you guys do realize this is a repro and that is how they are supposed to fit, right? Probably should've done a little research before jumping that gun, hombres.

To be fair, when I picture "repro cut sweatshirt" I don't think of something that would run small. Still, it is MIJ so that should have set some alerts off. Pretty weird they didn't get anything other than smedium though.

Sorry, I don't read Japanese. Info on these sweatshirts was a little hard to come by... I looked.

Here's a small excerpt from Jcrew's description

Quote:
This sweatshirt"”a reproduction of pre-1950's style"”is the holy grail of fleece.

Sweatshirts of this era fit exactly how buyers have described it in this thread. It's gonna be shorter and slimmer than today's version. It's a reproduction so Warehouse pretty much got it right. Also, it's J. Crew carrying Warehouse. I don't believe that had any type of collaboration on the sweatshirt. That might be why only medium was available.

Looks like BK to me. J.Crew have got to better their lighting or stop manufacturing ugly colors on their cloths.

Very slim... might even be uncomfortable to wear any other shirt underneath.

I almost want to try stretching it out to my desired size for that 'lived in' look.

I'll wait until I can get home from work and try it with some jeans before I make up my mind.

this is the reason why i never bought a vintage repro sweatshirt from japanese brands because of how they fit even though i love the quality and construction of them.

i went with the jcrew vintage fleece sweatshirt and it fits the way i want, while still being slim for a sweatshirt.

I waited 3 years for J Crew to bring back the medium tall.
I switched to Modern Tailor and will not go back. For the price of a J Crew RTW shirt I can make a mtm shirt with the same fabric.

Yea I just bought the brown/yellow one. Style number pulls up nothing online. A bunch of the ones that came in today were like that.

I have the regular marled fleece crewneck and can attest to its quality. It looks much nicer in person than it does on the website (bigger loops, better ribbing) and fits quite well too - I'm 6'0" and don't find it short at all. If anyone isn't looking forward to being on a waiting list for the Warehouse version/wants to save $100, then the regular J. Crew version this season is a very good option.

just saw those at the store today...theyre awesome, thicker and softer than the s/s sweatshirt that i have.

had a lot of new button ups that arent online and the flannels look smaller/slimmer in general..

I noticed the flannels looking s/s, too. Looks like they're finally realizing what the consumer has noticed for a long time now.

I've worn my Warehouse sweatshirt a few times and it's starting to break in and fit really well.
