for what it's worth, I tried on multiple sizes and I think it's oversized.

Not sure what to tell you. I tried on a 44 and the fit was perfect. I'm a true 44. Also depends on how you want it to fit I guess. It certainly wasn't skin tight, but felt the way a sweatshirt should fit, without being oversized.

just to make sure im referring to this season - the one that has yet to be put online yet - is your dip dye from this season or an older version - my point being that this season's dip dye could be oversized.

i know im raving on a bit here but its a $300 sweater so i want to get the size right.

i;m guessing this is what he was talking about. looks like any regular sweatshirt, but with an interesting gradient. fabric feels like a japanese loopwheeler sweatshirt i had years ago, which is to say, better than a regular sweatshirt.

This is exactly what I was talking about. Go TTS for a normal, slightly relaxed fit. Size down if you want something a little tighter.

the main reason i believed it to be oversized when i tried it on was the super long sleeves that bunched up on me. It's also generally loose. I don't have short arms by any means but that's what I noticed. I don't prefer a 'tight' fit, but i thought the 46 fit like a relaxed medium, while the 48 was really big. put it this way: the 46 was much, much more relaxed fitting than an APC medium sweater.

Nope, I'm specifically talking about the dip-dye from this season.

It's not oversized, it fits how a sweatshirt should fit (ie not tight like a t-shirt). It fits the same as my Geller dip dye hoodie from Spring 2010.

Yes, the sleeves are long, but not excessively like the Spring 2012 oversized sweatshirt. I was a 44 in that one and I'm a 46 in this season's dipdye.

i got the 48 and it is a little big i could of probably went with the 46 for a more conventional fit but I like it over-sized and let it stack and droop a bit. I think that's how geller wanted it worn.

anyone carrying Geller's wool trousers this season? if these are, in fact, wool (they look like a heavy flannel wool) I'd love to find a pair
