How big are your eclipse orders for those who has theirs shipped so far? Wondering if they’re shipping out single unit orders first.

Don't sweat it man. EE shorts are single layer mesh, no lining, and have a shorter inseam (vs. JE). They are super light weight. Some take this to mean lower quality, which I can see the angle, but when it's hot outside, or if you are lounging in the house, they are very comfortable (almost perfect?) shorts. I find most of JE mesh shorts are too long and end up sizing down 1 to get a more cropped inseam. While I like double layer of the JE shorts, it does make them heavier and warmer when wearing. The problem with EE shorts, is the ******* hype business model around them. They sell out instantly each and every drop. I am a busy guy.. and just can't deal with the online race at 9am to cop a pair of mesh shorts.

Are there any size charts available for the blackmeans blue-ivory rider jacket? I wanted to get one for the fiance and I'm trying to find the charts for an XS/0 but to no avail. Wasn't sure if there were separate women's/ men's sizing.

I also found the EE shorts to run smaller than JE overall... I like the shorter inseam, but my size S EE shorts are too slim in the thighs and at the limit on the waist, whereas my Game Shorts are on the roomier side all around in a size S. Going to end up selling and grabbing an M for a baggier fit. Haven't had a pair of practice shorts yet to compare to.
