XXL Villain Hoodie and XL Escobar Sweats came in today and damn do they feel good. Quality and fit is right on. I have to thank everyone for all their assistance with getting the sizing right the first time (whether you guys know you helped or not, lol). For reference, I am 6' 2" and weight 225lbs. I was really nervous about how they would fit but it worked out just how I like. Thanks John Elliott + Co., you have a repeat customer over here.

Semi local store gets their delivery up the day I leave on a trip. :fu: They were unpacking it yesterday afternoon when I called to check (already left a request last week). Here's to hoping my phone order is completed.

just received my grey size small villain today in the mail, wearing it now

fit is really on point, wish the hood was bigger though (i must have a big head :/)

those who are iffy on sizes should compare measurements with hoodies you already own-- i was kinda afraid it'd be too small on me but it's totally fine. for reference, i'm 5'9 and 145. of course, a medium would fit on me but the small is pretty good already. i think the most important thing is knowing where your weight is distributed. the side zips really make a difference with giving some room in the midsection though.

Argh, so of course I realized that a villain hoodie would be a great addition to my wardrobe only after they're all sold out. Any chance for a restock coming up? Also, are you guys gonna carry any more of those light green t shirts?

I also meant to make note that the placement of the side pockets on the Escobars is very well done. It feels very natural (if that makes sense) I will say that I have to agree with the member a couple posts above me that mentioned the size of the hood on the Villain. I do wish it was bigger and more functional.

Also agreed on the hood of the villain. I've been trying to stretch mine out but feel like it'll just look warped if I keep going.

And I got my sweats today. 6'2" 210lbs and the XL fit really well. I was afraid they'd look mad awkward since I have big legs but the fact they are tight on the calves helps off-set that.... Unless you had little calves, then it would probably look awkward.
Really soft and warm as well.

For any of you guys that have some of the nimbus or coast as well as the sweats tell me how the fit compares? I usually wear 34's in (rogue territory, RRL, Baldwin) and that seems about right based on the sizing on the website, just worried the 12" thigh is too small.

Hit up http://shop.cncpts.com if you missed out on Villains or Escobars...they have all colors of both, in all sizes.

The grey/grey Escobars are extremely limited as are the Burgundy Villains.
