Just got a preview of the new items hitting stores and online in the next few weeks. New watch partnership (not Timex), chelsea boots and outerwear along with more winter-esque shirts/pants etc.

I'm almost exactly the same measurements, and feel like a small in most J Crew shirts fits me pretty well. However, they are definitely one of the larger "small" sizes I've worn from other brands. Lands End Canvas smalls, for example, are way slimmer in both the chest and waist.
My biggest gripe with the small Jcrew shirt size is the length of the sleeves. They are as long or longer than most mediums in other brands.


i find LEC smalls to be way bigger actually, not a fan of their fits at all

Hell no! not in small. Especially my older LEC shirts are nearly comparable to Gitman Smalls.

It really varies from shirt to shirt. I have one that fits smaller than JC small, one that fits bigger.

But is JC getting bigger with their sizing? 2 years ago, I found XS to be slightly too small in the chest for me. A few weeks ago, I tried again and found it fit well. I didn't shrink during that time.

Anybody got a promo code they'd be willing to let go (I'd be willing to pay of course). I haven't gotten one in a while :(
