Sizing question please - I recently tried on the Escobar sweats at atrium in the grey duo and can fit a small which is a bit tight in the waist but not too much.

1) what size would I be in the black and also the blue one in the midnight collection - the same? I know they mentioned the sizing difference but I'm not familiar with any because I thought it may look horrible on my frame at the time.

2) do they stretch?

Any help is appreciated

Thanks!


Black would be the same size (if they are current run). The blue you size up one as they are now slimmer. You will actually like the fit of the blues. The waist will give you some breathing room and maintain the same cut elsewhere.

Ok great thanks so much! So small in black of current run and medium for the blue color in
the midnight collection?

It has the same leg of the small and the waist is wider?

That's correct. Just basing it off of the sizing charts. In the current black and grey I'm a size xs and I feel the same about the waist. I got a small in the blue.

@johnelliottco - are the black escobars that apartmentnumber9 has on their website currently the same size/measurement as the ones you sell on your site right now? (They're not from a previous season that had different sizing)?

Just received my whole midnight set today. Quality is good and Sizing was on point except for the charcoal villain hoodie.

Ordered Hoodie and Mercer tee in M and escobars in S.

The ones I received is definitely a sz L, but i ordered a sz M.

The labels and tags inside are 2 (medium) but the measurement and fit compared to my black villain hoodie is 1" wider on the chest and 2" longer out front. If worn with the mercer tee it barely reveals the tee inside, almost covering it entirely.

This happened to me on my first order (black villain hoodie). I knew something was off because i tried my buddys hoodie in same size but his was more slim fitted. But the first time the black hoodie was still in stock when I had to return and reorder it.

Anyone experience the same issue? Please advise.

Thanks. The whole set looks nice. How old is your black villian? Things get adjusted it seems like all the time, maybe that's where the difference comes from? I seems like it's just longer but not wider.

I just got it with the mesh rebel hoodie about 1 month ago.It is difficult to tell from the picture because its 1" diffrence between M and L is on the chest. The length (front) is 2" diff from 26" in M to 28" in L (so its more apparent).

Even wearing them I can feel the black one is more tailored and snug. The charcoal one feels like regular cut. Hence why i pulled out the measurement tape. It defeats the purpose if I wear a mercer tee underneath but the front accent is covered by the hoodies length.
