What is the sizing like at Club Monaco? Can't find a size chart anywhere and am looking for measurements on a XS tee or polo.
Their stuff runs large.
I'm thinking about getting a really nice jacket, leaning mostly to a Julius since I really like my jackets to have a 2-way front zipper, so that rules out RO and a few other I've seen, my main problem is I never really heard of Julius prior to joining this board and dont have any retailers that carry it near me, so I'm a bit unsure of a few things:
- Size? from the measurements I've read online, it seems I'm between a size 1 and 2, and have zero hope of actually getting to try both sizes prior to purchasing it, size 1 might be a bit tight in the chest/shoulder/biceps but otherwise seems ok lengthwise, and size 2 just seems a bit too long on the sleeve and body although chest/shoulders/biceps would probably fit better then on size 1, any comments or suggestions?
- Where to kop? Should I wait for a good one here/sufu/sz, or should I just try a japan proxy, I've seen that they run about 2k in Japan but have seen some on sale for around 1.2-1.5k too, so not sure if the extra few hundred is worth it vs koping one on the boards for around 1k although we all know waiting kinda sucks, any tips?
- Which style to kop? I like the racer, the jut neck and the moto, but something draws me more towards the jut neck although I cant seem to find good pics of it worn with the collar down, folded or spread out and really doubt I'd wear it with a standing collar all the time, or at least not when unzipped, any thoughts?
Some tips, suggestions, comments or personal experiences on this topic would be greatly appreciated.
I tried on a couple RO jackets in NY. I'm normally an xs in things, and the xs was pretty damn tight. I actually really liked how the medium fit me, it was loose and sort of drapey but still slimming. So I guess don't be afraid of buying it a little bit too big.
