Nimbus wash. I'm never going to be comfortable with a clingy skin tight sweater, so I'm probably not gonna size down regardless if that's the "intended" style. Only works on rail thin people. If you have a big drop, it looks comical like wearing under armor, regardless of how fit you are. I also wear biz casual and sometimes full CM M-F so yeah.

Your clothes would def not look too tight and that would make your outfits look much better if you sized down 1. Even the jeans look a tad big.

You don't appear to be big at all to where you need things to be fitting on the loose side. It's not like your regular size would make your body look sloppy or something

Just my thinking tho, do you :)

Hey James, you have an untrained eye. If he sized down everything would be tight and huggin him. Slim and skinny jeans are out now. Embrace the volume

i ordered a pair of quilted escobars in size medium off of revolve and they are like yoga pant tight everywhere. I'm a 31" waist, and 6'1" . Will going up to a large help or are they just not for me? I would like a fit similar to how they are on the atrium website. If ordering a large will fix the issue, I'll probably go for a pair of limas.

I'm almost positive a large would help...u must have really big legs bc I'm 6'4" size 33 waist and my first pair was an XL which was kinda baggy then my second pair I went down to larges and they are still loose enough around thighs but a perfect fit. Btw if anyone wants to size up on black quilted escobars I'm trying to trade an XL for a L. They've only been worn like twice.

Strange, I'm 6'2" with a 30" waist and, while I'd prefer a slightly longer inseam, the medium fits with some room to spare. Did you get the quilted/resized new season of escobars or the non-quilted original size profile ones?

Someone wrote that the old washes will be released with the new fit in may.

How would they differ from the "old fit"? I know about the tapering. But are there any other differences?

Would they be different in the waist?

It would not. But my eye is untrained as you stated and it's preference so okay.

Regardless tho outfit doesn't look to bad at all. Those were just my suggestions.

You and I may dress very differently and have different outlooks on how clothes should fit. But everything would not be tight, it would fit.

Also I embrace volume, just depends on the piece, mainly for hoodies, Nothing he is wearing needs much volume.

But again. Untrained eye. I appreciate that feedback and will take that into consideration when trying to give out pointers next time

SRS. Not trying to be sarcastic lol. Dope fit tho!!

Click on the image gallery in this thread (right hand side) and go to gallery view/view all ; there's a measurement table that lists all measurements for each size of the new fit.
