I'm surprised no one has complained about the graphic tees yet .

It's a very basic tee when it comes to fabric. Even the inside tag is different.....

What you see there on the sides can't be steamed away. That's just extra fabric

I get mine today but not sure if I'll keep it. Also, based on the CS email I received they sent me the wrong size anyways. Lol

It almost feels like a promo tee tbh. The tag inside is different. I like the fit though so I'll keep it. Others that are picky won't like it

5'10 140. wear m in everything JE. Gold with tag is M. Gold without tag is Small. Pink is Medium. Pick your right size. $600 is a slippery slope for final sale

Thanks for the size comparison .. they both look good on you.. I've made my decision to pass on silk bombers, I didn't want to second guess what size I need to be a final sale .. It's almost good price tho.. I just didn't want to chance having buyers remorse ..

You won't like the fit. I wouldn't feel too bad.

Here's the silk bomber on me, 6' 175/180 athletic build. **** lighting. I agree with @Jbidwal , you need height to make the jacket look good. I just didn't like the Michelin man aspect of the jacket.

Honestly at your height I wouldn't buy it. It's a bit too long and baggy for shorter people. Maybe the xs could work for you since you are bigger up top than me but I don't know if you would want to experiment
Thank you.. with that said.. I decided to pass on it... I appreciate the feedback.. I did get the Oros in Natural Meds .. Thanks to the 2 Boys who text/msg me this morning about it .. SFJE Team Effort Rocks!!

I tried the gold in xs, hoping for a similar cropped look as the slp palm tree teddys. It's nothing like that. I'll consider the black one but sub $500. It's more of a sportswear jacket

How tall are you? Im about 5'8". This is how the palm tree teddy fits me in a 48 (a bit short for my taste but thats the intended fit). I was thinking of going with a small in the black. I agree, its more of a casual piece which is why I am interested. I do like the ruggedness of it.

5-7 120 though. That's the look I wanted in this jacket. If you really want it you can prob get away with the xs. The bagginess is built into the jacket. You can't really get rid of it as it's extra fabric so sizing down doesn't really hurt
