Going back through some old emails and came across the raffle for F&F Nike JE Icons... did anyone on this forum win a pair? The all whites are too clean!

I’ve had the grey Escobar’s in a size large which fit great and today I bought the black Escobar’s in the same size and they feel a full size larger. Is this typical?

All the grey variations of JE items are going to fit different than the other colors because of the cotton/poly mix.

Generally all other colors of Escobar's will fit the same with the exception of colors that had a special wash process to get a desired look e.g. washed black and all the marbled variations.

Most people still get the same size Escobar's in grey though. If you feel like you're swimming in the black pair then try sizing down but mind the waist.

what are some go-to shorts brands that aren't basketball / jersey? have enough JE but looking for something less casual

something i can wear at home as well as at work on the weekend / go out to dinner in

i think there were a few recommendations regarding swim trunk brands, but open to more suggestions!

I was worried they wouldn't drape the same. JE really had something with the older classic crews! Thanks



I love the cut and I hope they didnt shorten them tbh, perfect tee for a taller guy

The 100% cotton ones also fit a lot slimmer. TBH I dont care for them at all, if I'm getting a newer tee from John Elliott now its either an AE or a Uni, dont care for the new classic crews whatsoever
