I know there was some discussion on sizing, but if Escobars in size Small or too tight for me and I need a Medium - would Medium be my size in all sweats, such as the Sochis and LA sweats?

I wear a medium in Escobars and Sochis. I ordered a pair of LA Sweats in a size medium too. They're scheduled to be delivered on Friday. I'll let you know how they fit and compare to the other two sweats.

Again if you are on the fence on the sizing of The LA sweats. I recommend going with your esco size. I wear an XL in escos and copped a 2xl in my first pair of LA. I can fit them but the fit a bit too oversized. The cuff won’t stay up. Not a deal breaker but again don’t size up. They do stretch out.

I’m surprised so many people bought the washed black LA sweats. Weren’t they the ones with the color issues?

it's not a true washed black and the color reminds me more of carbon. like most have already said, last year's replicas are darker than la sweats.

here's washed black basalt next to LA sweats:

Intrigued by the LA Sweats, but my size in the good colors are sold out except for Olive. Been also eyeing the Loose Stitch Shorts since I'm in a warmer climate here in SoCal. Anybody got feedback on the loose stitch items?
