The thing is the Large isn't that much bigger in the biceps/arms area, it's just longer in body length I think. I'm 5'10 and my 41 Overshirt in Medium is really tight too, I'm 5'10 145lbs

yeah i wear a size large. if i do a "hugging" motion i will pop out of the shirt. I am swimming in an xl though so id rather have it be fitted. wish there was a size in between lol

Speculations or info on the Harvey Nichols collaboration?


For the first time ever, they will slap a logo on their clothing. Giant Union Jack on the back of Villain hoodies with red/white drawstrings.

You heard it here first, don't sleep on this drop as it's super exclusive!

Perhaps my sarcasm can be misconstrued for negativity.

Harvey Nichols is a solid account, generally brands don't do a whole lot of exclusive drops for signing up a new retailer. Generally brands and retailers do a collaboration for a significant anniversary.

i.e. If Roden Gray was doing a 15th year anniversary they might hit up JE and do a capsule collection

or

If JE was celebrating 5 years they might make something exclusive for a retailer

Generally buyers/retailers who sign up a new brand care about two things: the best dead net cost possible or listing fees

There is no collaboration as of yet. This was to announce our newest international stockist for SS15.

I see. Thanks for the clarification! I'm just glad we don't have to get all anxious for yet another collection. I'm sure we addicts on here already stress out about JE clothing enough.

does anyone know what the limited CW of the crash crew is for this international stock list? Also, charcoal class crew size large anyone?

Hey Guys,

I'm a JE newbie. I'm wondering what size I should order for the Villain hoodie.

I'm a stocky/husky build. I'm 5'7 about 190 lbs. Broad shoulders, wide chest, and a bit of a beer belly.

If it helps, I wear an XL in American Apparel zip up hoodies.

Is it even worth if for me to cop since I'm not the prototypical slim type?

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

How often do you guy wash your escobars? Do you treat them like denim (rarely wash) or do you wash every wear? I'm just concerned I'll ruin the terry by washing too often.
i got like 4-5 pairs and I honestly never wash them...I don't like to wash nice clothes. I mean if I spilled something on them or something I'd wash them but not otherwise. I don't like run around playing basketball in them or sweat in them at all so I'd rather not ruin them in the washer.

Being 5'7 190 lbs I would say not to even bother, I'm 5'10 145lbs and the Large size is very slim on me, but if you would to try I would say L.

I mean, me being my size, I'm used to wearing tall tees and hoodies that are long. My issue was if I ordered an XL or XXL the length of the arms would be too much. Thanks for the feedback.

Preciate the feedback. I think I'll hold out on the villains until I actually run into them at a store.

The Loopwheel fabric is very impressive. Quite comfortable and forgiving compared to my heavyweight reigning champ sweatshirts, which are almost of equal weight as JE's loopwheel fabric
