You guys that are size S (or XS or whatever) are most likely only that size because of age, no? I mean most people do not remain that size their whole life, not even Europeans or whoever. People generally grow over time, though I get the point about American's being bigger overall.... but then again this is an American company catering to American clients. Also, I think of the 'Canvas' line as basically being a 30somthing line (same as Jcrew) - give of take, and I use that description very loosly. There's other companies that are geared more towards the young skinny dudes.. Urban Outfitters, etc, etc. It's gret that those same guys like 'canvas' of course, but I've just never gotten the impression that they were trying to appeal to that set, and that's IMHO why the clothes my be looser than some are expecting. And again those expecting the chambrays the be snugger fitting... it's a replica of a workwear type shirt which would have never been snug, but even this one has a somewhat modern cut in comparison to originals. Again, JMHO.
lol at morons trying to justify anorexic feminine figures as being 'normal males'. Go chug some protein and hit the gym.
I don't know how you guys who are 160-170 are fitting well in mediums....I'm 6' 195 and the mediums fit me great.
this **** again? really? only one bodytype can be "manly"?
I'm sorry but this is just dumb. Really? Everyone gets fat or packs on muscle as they get older? I mean I can understand that if you're talking about people under 18, but no as to adults. Lots of people stay a similar size their entire adult lives. I'm (within +/- 5lb) pretty much the same size now as I was when I started college back in '03 and I'll probably be roughly the same in another 10 years.
obviously muscles don't make a man though, character and a rigorous set of morals does.
Dumb? Come on, you're just being naive. You're 26 and still in an xs? I'd say that's not typical at all. And don't necessarily bank on remaining the same size (xs when you're 50+?, lol) Lands'End knows it's not typical for guys in their target group to be that small - from experience and/or research I'm sure. Otherwise they'd offer it that way.
When the stuff is on deep discount like it is, just find the shirts/outerwear that fits you in the shoulders and then put $10-$15 of tailoring into it and you get decent fits.
+1 You can't beat casual shirts for <$10
Yeah, you can. It's called H&M - with better fits.
big price increase on their t-shirts which really sucks as that is one of my favorite things they make. Used to be $12.50 each if you bought 3 at a time, now they are $17 if you buy 3. I already have about a dozen thankfully but that is getting too expensive.
After returning some stuff got my latest order in. Charcoal Grey Poplin Workshirt. http://bit.ly/gXO2G4 Great fit (I got the medium) and the dark charcoal grey is a very complimentary color if you like darker subdued shirts. The heather pattern and black buttons gives it just enough visual contrast to set it apart. Great find and a steal for the $8.99 I paid. Might circle back for the indigo heather. The Fairisle Sweater I got in Medium, became available in small at the lower price with the additional sale a couple of weeks back. The fit is a lot better, the lesson is clear, definitely size down. Chambray Shorts: They fit fine, the color is a little too faded but for the price they'll do. Will pair with white oxfords or linen shirts only. All in all a great deal. The return of my previous stuff went easy enough. They just glanced through the stuff and credited the card within 2 days.
