J Crew Fall/Winter 2010 Discussion

[maritimetimetime]

how do the jcrew xs fit? im like 5'6"ish and 34" chest and i feel that even the xs size would be too big for me.

Has anyone seen the wool CPO shirt in stores?

I'm really wanting to grab one and I'm actually hoping it's like a typical Crew shirt and is much thinner than expected. It "looks" like it's much thinner and if other shirts are a guide then I'm going to guess it is.

I was going to grab a Fidelity CPO for half the price but 22oz is a bit much for the winters here in FL even on the days is does drop below 40.

JCrew XS fits like a (slight smaller) small so yes, it'll be a little too big for you if you wear very fitted clothes.

I just bought one. Super thick. Compares to IH thick flannels.

Thanks for the info. Not what I was hoping to hear

Ordered a Rogue Territory denim shirt to use as an overshirt instead.

nice buy on the DB. I have one 2.

Anyone have experience with the vintage cords, slim vs straight? Looking for something similar in fit to 47 501s, not too slim and not too relaxed.

Ok, I emailed J. crew and they gave me the same measurements for both the straight fit and slim fit, which doesn't seem right to me...

Can the CPO shirt be used as a layering piece over a shirt or are they worn by themselves?

I have one. Bought it deep deep discount. Had it tailored. Fits nice and made of Loro Piano fabric. Nice suit. Better than most department stores but for the MSRP you can do better. The MSRP for a suit on J. Crew is like $500 or something. Wouldn't spend more than $300.

Rule of thumb is good suit for a sale price but don't take the MSRP dive. Like most things J.Crew

Can anyone compare the fit on J.Crew sweaters to Uniqlo sweaters?
