ULD vest is cool, not sure if I should size up to medium. Will see tomorrow

Hi, was wondering on the sizing on the ULD vest? Do they run large?

I ask cause on the site the model is 6'1, but wearing a small. I'm also just over 6'1 but have exclusively worn a medium in Uniqlo shirts and blazers. Also, and maybe it's just the pic, but the vest looks just a bit too small on him to me.

I don't live near a store, so hoping to avoid ordering multiple sizes, etc...

Thanks.

I tried on a medium, was a little bit looser but ended up keeping the small since they didn't have the color i ordered. I think a medium for you should be fine. I think jet wears a medium in the ULD last year and he's got a broad back/chest. Also depends on how you wear it. I just put over a tee or shirt. It's great to layer over IMO.

I could be wrong but the new ones feel thinner to me.

There are at least two different cuts, one with a center box pleat and one with side pleats in the back. The main difference I noticed is that the ones with side pleats seem to have slightly longer arms. It might be that the ones with a button-down collar all have the center box pleat and he ones with a point collar all have side pleats - this is true in at least some cases - but of course the web site doesn't show the backs of the shirts so there's no way of knowing.

at least in the three i have this is true: point-collar with side pleats, button-down with center box pleat. additionally, the the point-collar shirts have two pockets with buttons in front (the first pic you see hides this) while the button-down collared shirts have one without a button.

Sizing has been weird for sure… not sure if it's the adjustment for the US market and the new store openings or what. I had some promo codes and there was free shipping today so I ordered some shirts anyway… see when they get here.

Can anyone give some insight on how the flannels fit? I'm usually a medium in most regular fit J.Crew, although they can get a bit snug across the chest. Not sure if I should go medium or large with Uniqlo.

Where do you live? I'm pretty sure they were only supposed to send those to Canada.

Re: ULD sizing, imo they run large. I'm a 36 chest, take a small in tops across the board, and I went with a XS. The S would've worked for me though if I wanted a baggier, looser fit
