This is the oversized purl grey pocket tee?

Yes.

 

[ElmTree]

Yes.

I think it fits really good on you. The sleeve length and neckline look like that of a co-mix uneck. I'm 5'10, 163 and a medium fits drastically different on me.

Hoodies in, with a natural anti expo underneath.

Word. Co mix half zip is GOAT. Mad comfy. And yeah the half zip giving you that breathing room is great. And perfect to not eff up your hair. This hellweek crew is epic, but putting it on or taking it off makes my hair looks like a bozo

Mr. P had one large left in stock. Wasn't sure whether or not they were restocking, so I had to check it out after all of these comments. Does it fit TTS?

I still can't believe the purl tank and purl tee are nearly the same price. Super pricey. But def

I think it's best to go TTS for MOST JE items. Most times I sized down, I was a little disappointed I did so

 

[MuskieFan]

I did the same exact thing as you and I'm super happy with the fit. I advised that most people might wanna stay TTS on the purl knit, but personally I can't do the whole oversized thing. I'm still hoping to find another XS so I can double up on it.
I miss the good ol' slim fit days of JE.

Did the same thing. Just not a huge fan of oversized stuff. I size down for anti-expo also

It would be hard to believe it costs the same to make considering it's definitely composed of less material than the OS pocket tee, not to mention there's no pocket. Half this forum committed to buying it before it dropped. Maybe they knew it'd sell regardless. I expected a lower tag too.

Highly doubt there'd be any restock. It fits pretty tts of you wanted to wear it as intended, bc that specific style is oversized. I sized down for one of mine and wished I didn't. All my other half zips are TTS and I'm very happy with those

Haaaaaaaaa. JE should link up with new era for the dad caps

Have you guys had any experience having the waistband of a sweater taken in? Because i'm a little broader in the upper and have a smaller waist some sweaters have this excess baginess/drape at the bottom. Doesn't need to be taken in a ton, but just maybe an inch, not sure if this will throw off everything else. I've read dipping the waistband in hot water and then drying it but not quite sure on that one.

@Jbidwal any experience with this? i know you're big on tailoring

Really matters on what kind of knit it is. If it is a chunky knit it can be rather difficult, if it's a simple tightly woven knit it should be similar to taking in a dress shirt. Here's an example of how to do it on the latter.

Depends on the sweater. It's possible though. I had stuff done in the past when I had that issue too.

Concepts has black and white oversized hoodies and tees with embroidery and paint splatter. They also have the skittles crewneck
