I've been looking at this sweatshirt for a while, but how does it fit an 'athletic' build (ie. big chest, small waist) and how does it hold up in terms of quality?

Also, is the fabric pretty thin or is it rather thick? I need thin fabrics to avoid looking like I'm wearing a bulletproof vest.

as far as athletic build, the chest is pretty slim, but it's the arms that will kill you, they're super slim

The arms are quite slim but the body of the piece is a normal fit for it's size.
We just got a restock of these at Self Edge if anybody needs one, we're taking phone orders and offering free shipping.

I can deal with slim arms, because most shirts have arms that are too baggy anyway. I'll give it a try.

What's the pit to pit size for a large?

That's really annoying. Why do mfg's do this. I often want to get small shirts but it's like someone is gripping your arms all day long. And mediums are usually too large.
