Whaa? Some people have left, but the brand isn't ceasing to exist. At least not that I've heard.

how do their fleece hoodies, sweat shirts fit? I've been looking to pick some up and i normally wear a small in most tops..but i hear to size up on their items. Should i just get a small or size up? Thanks!

I recommend sizing up a size for the fleece items. Normally I wear a size small with Wings + Horns and the size small tiger fleece hoodie from F/W 2008 fits tighter than their other clothes in the same size. Sizing tends to change from season to season though.

x2 Also consider what you'll be wearing for layers underneath.

cool thanks, i saw a shawled collar cardi, so do that in medium, and a cashmere sweater in SM. Thanks!

Sizing up is for wusses.
If you don't like that look you should probably buy a different hoodie.
But then I'm biased because I'm probably smaller than a "regular" XS.
They are not designed to be worn with layers underneath and only seem to look good on small skinny people.
Everyone on here is going to tell you it looks like crap anyway.

^referring to slim tiger fleece.

Derp, that was a pretty dumb suggestion. I am 6'1" and 175lbs and sized up to an XL. Looks great on me, but it helps that I'm pretty skinny.

I said I was biased... :shrug:

I am 5'7" & 30" waist, usually wear US size 34/36. I can easily fit into the XS Tshirts and hoodies.

cool, that's pretty much the same measurements as me. On the hoodies, do you can enough room to put a crewneck or something without it being to tight? I like a slim profile, but i still need room to move.

I think it depends on the season and the specific piece, however. For example, I'm 5'6" and 28" waist and the SMALL (not extra-small) NdG x W+H tiger fleece from FW09 is so slim I can hardly fit layers under it.

If you're contemplating small versus x-small, or some such sizing quandry, it's difficult to say . . . . I own a couple of their jackets and buttondowns as XS and they fit perfectly, whereas I'm quite pleased with the S fit on the hoody (in earlier days, they had "slim fit" and "classic fit" for hoodies, the classic fit being bulky and un-fly, but now there's not these two categories and the fit is generally quite slim-ish); and for the thermals I cannot imagine even your slimmest, most pint-sized dude would be comfortable in XS of these, as the pit-to-pit is like 16.5 inches or however many centimeters . . . . So I'd wait before making a call, wait till Context, Haven, or the two above sites (Roden Gray and Four Horsemen) toss out measurements.

i was looking for one thing in specific the dark grey crewneck sweatshirt...and i don't see it out this year. I can't seem to find it in S or M anywhere.
