The varsity jacket was there as well, I tried on the medium and although it fit alright I bet a small would've been better, but the size was gone (not a surprise). On a side note, those NDGxW+H hoodies are great quality, they had a grey and black one that felt very heavy and thick (great for the winter time) and the stitching was phenomenal. Maybe I'll pick up one when I get some money freed up.

Nice! How much was one of the NDG x W+H hoodies that you speak of?

I thought the thread lacked some fit pics so here are a few from my season's pick ups. Both are a size medium. I typically wear smalls in most if not all brands and sized up one to a medium in these based on others (most notably Farinelli's) recommendations. Black Thermal Henley

The black with the white accent looks really bad IMO.
The grey looks awesome though.

I was put off from it at first, but it's grown on me. The patches on the black I didn't mind, it was the button placket, but I've come to terms with it. They aren't white accents though, they're gray. I absolutely love that gray one though, by far my favorite of the two.

The placket does seem a bit much, but the elbow patches add a nice touch.

Yeah the elbow patch are definitely fine. I'm put off by the button placket as well, but I'm glad you're happy with them. How would you compare on this years' thermal to other seasons?

Some fit pics of the Melton Award Jacket, it is the W&H x Cool Cats so just ignore the giant badge and you get the Melton Award in blue/brown. I think it looks great in these pics.

Am I the only one that's not crazy about the award jackets? I guess it's just not my thing..

Nope, I don't like 'em either. Would much rather have a TOJ.
