Sizing tips? I have a comix classic crew in one size up but I remember that the 50/50 blend fit slight different. Is it TTS or still up one size?

Going to be using these for layering if thats helpful
I go TTS Large and I’m 6’1” 175 and add weight during the winter up to 185.
I still got all my comix alternatives in L because XL was sloppy.

Comix fit almost like if you shrunk a shirt by accident but it didn’t shrink down a full size only just enough to notice.

Aside from the nice premium feel, the 50/50 blend draped really well. So if you size up wrong it can exaggerate any sloppiness. So go with your usual size.

They do pill slightly but not in a way that it looks old and none have faded in color.
In contrast my 1 x 100% cotton held it’s color but it just looked like any other old/aged cotton shirt after a year. I ended up just giving it to my brother.

edit: that was too verbose. TLDR: go with your true size. Don’t size up.

6’1”, 29/30 in Cast 2, can go for S or M in LA sweats…what size am I looking at for the back sateen cargos? I read through the posts and most say size down but the inseam being as short as it is on the XS is concerning. Anyone else with similar measurements have these and can attest? Thank you!

if theyre bringing back classics I hope we see the Mercer Half Zip
I was late to the party when those came out. Picked up a bnwt black and alpine a couple years after release and they are my favorite fitting pull over hoodie JE ever made. Dual Flash Full zip still the Goat though in hoodies overall.

Wishful thinking is they surprise drop Nero’s and put the Creepers on sale.
I have over 20 pairs of Cast variations and those are my biggest regret not picking up.

The Mercer was ahead of it’s time.

Glad to see I'm not the only one. Will probably pick one up off Grailed eventually

I’d stay TTS. Haven’t purchased one in a while but I have some 50/50 versions and if you go up the length will be too long. I go with M and I think we’re similar height/weight if I’m not mistaken.
