All (most, unless realllly slim) of my tops/sweaters/etc are smalls. The only XS I own is the sweatpants seen there in black, as well as possibly a henley or two. XS were/are always difficult to come by.

okay...some folded chinos/sweats/bottoms pr0n. Teaser for closet cleaning sale thread as well (sans a few pieces I need for work. All of these pants are 28 & 29's with maybe a 30 mixed in). There are more at the dry-cleaner....

Ton's of shirts and tops too. Could be most epic small size w+h sale thread. Not abandoning the brand by any means - my love is as strong as ever - but just totally inundated with clothes right now..

That's some collection you got there.. can't wait for the sale thread

Damnnnnnnn at the teaser pics. Looks like I need to set a good amount of cash aside.

I would say size up 1 from your normal size, or two if you want to be very safe (In retrospect I would have sized up 1 and not 2). They also run very slim throughout the entire leg, and leg opening - so be mindful of that. Also, as Feji said, there won't be any stretch even though the fabric resembles a denim in photos...

re; getting them -- they're great. Have probably wore them more than any pant or short this spring..

Awesome, thank you!

Just got my blue organic cotten blazer, and gotta say the color is perfect for summer. My only gripe is that it fits a little smaller than the cotten/linen blend blazer from this season also. Everything fits pretty snug, and thus the back kind of fans out cause of the double back vents (versus the single back vent on the linen/cotten blend blazer).

I've got a medium coming, so I can compare fits and keep the better fitting one.

For anyone on the fence about the sweat shorts, I picked up a pair today, and they are ridiculously comfortable. I'm really happy with them. My friend (who isn't into W+H or into pricey-ish clothes) tried on a pair and loved them as well. They are size L, so I can post fit pics or measurements if anybody wants them.

I remember an earlier post in which slack said the organic terry fits a bit larger than other W&H pieces (tts, rather than having to size up) but your experience seems to be different? I'll go look for that post ...

edit: post is here.

Well I normally wear Mediums in this seasons W+H collection (39") chest. For the cotten/linen blend blazer I originally went with a medium, and it happened to be too large...so I sized down (the p2p on the medium was 21", the small had a 20" p2p).

So when I got the organic terry blazer, I figured it'd be the same since slack said both blazers were cut on the same block... I'm guessing the organic terry blazer is just a little thicker fabric versus the cotten/linen blend. I'll know for sure when the medium organic terry blazer gets here...I'll do a full run of measurements on all 3 blazers at that time.

gotcha. thanks for the info and look forward to the measurements. in the market for the organic terry in light grey but it's starting to look like i need the perennially unavailable XS (me being a true or perhaps slim XS).... if anyone is thinking to sell lemme know...

meanwhile here's a list of w&h online stockists i assembled in the past month (with direct link to their w&h section). most of you probably have all of them bookmarked or whatnot but i figured it might still be helpful to newcomers to the brand... additions etc. welcome

Nope, precisely because of that reason. I actually wanted to try the sizing out at Gravity Pope a few days ago, but they were out.

Oh yeah, Gravity Pope.
