Yeah, that sounds about right. Its also short in the body.

Is it wider than normal in the shoulders to compensate?

I don't recall, I just remember it being short on me in the arms and body and is why I didn't buy one.

I'm looking to get the workaday thermal hoodie. Does anyone have experience on the sizing of these hoodies? I believe the raglan hoodie runs true to size but I'm a little worried these might run snug due to the lining.

In my experience, sizing of the hoodies is all over the place. Actual sizing of the same tagged size can vary between two different colors of the same hoody. So, you should either buy it slightly large or be prepared to possibly try on or return a few until you get the right size. Then again, you could luck out and get it right the first time. Good luck. They are great hoodies!

The thermal lined hoodies tend to run on the small size, so you'd probably want to size up. I'm normally a medium, even small in shirts at times, but I take a large in the thermal lined hoodies. The length of the sleeves may even be an issue if you're rather tall, because I'm only 5'9" and the sleeve length is just right, if not slightly short.

The thermal hoodies definitely do run small. I am usually a medium or a large in shirts and a large in outerwear, but the XL thermal hoodie was barely big enough for me. It is a great hoodie though, and very warm.

 

[zissou]

Hmm. I typically am a M in shirts, and a S in overshirts, but a S hoody (only in charcoal!) fits me well. It is a fairly slim fit, though, and barely long enough.

There are supposed to be more stockists of the Workaday line this season.

This is a super long shot, but does anyone remember/know if the EG Levi denim 507 jacket used shrink-to-fit denim?
