Their large now fits more like XL? And their old sizing was already a little big bigger than everybody else's.

JC caters to the fatter general population, despite having fans in niche communities such as this one

There are some guys that aren't fat that dont like this whole ultraultraultra slimfit craze. I remember about 5 years ago JCrew shirts started getting real narrow; are they bigger (normal) again?

I don't like "this whole ultraultraultra slimfit" and the only J.Crew shirt I've owned (a medium button-down) would've needed a stay at the neighborhood tailor to excise it from potato sack silhouette territory.
