They're pretty huge this year too...even after a wash.

Really? Maybe its different depending on what size you take. I found them to be noticeably smaller than the old ones. The patterned denim shirts I picked up from the current season fit me fine in xs, whereas the linen in XS was definitely too small.

The linen shirts are smaller than last year's offering. They're still bit big for my liking, however.

Everything felt one size larger except for the shoulders. They're still a little long on the body for me; can't remember the sleeves.

Smaller in terms of chest, shoulder, arms, body length...what specifically?


I got a solid navy linen last year and a white and light blue this season. Both size Medium. Made the mistake of waiting last year and they sold out in like 2 weeks. The new ones seem slightly smaller in the shoulders and chest, but still comfortable/wearable. All other aspects seem the same.

Anyone have anything to say about the cotton linen short sleeve shirts? The plaid ones. Some people are saying they run large in the shoulders so I'm wondering if I should size down or stick with an L.

Tried on the linen shirts and I would take the same size as slim fit oxfords. Fits a little looser overall than the oxford.
