Clothes sizing is dang wonky…
#1
these days.  Maybe I’m just an odd size, but Large is too small and XL is too big.  I blame it on “athletic fit.”  They should have a “dad fit.”  Who in hell are all these model size people wearing athletic fit?  Maybe I should just hit the gym more often.

Perhaps you have contracted the deadly 'moderator spread'; it has consumed most of the ON3 goons, en masse.

I agree. I am either a 2xl tall or a 3xl. The tall fits alot better. I don't need the belly of the 3xl. Dang shirt looks like a tent.

I’ve seen some companies have the s/m which is between a small and medium.  They need the same for l/xl.  I’m a large + 1/2.  Not quite an XL.

Sounds like a personal problem, a dose or two of Midol may help.
Cool

Nah, you’re spot on Griff!!    Funny thing is one company’s large is another’s XL.    Try on some Onward reserve.    Their stuff is crazy.  Their Large is a 2XL.   

Another wild observation, a 32 waist pants fits about a 34” waist these days.

Yes!  I like the style of Onward Reserve, but the sleeves on their shirts are too long - going below my elbow.  The quality of their shirts is also suspect.  I returned a golf shirt that “pilled” all over after the first wash.  They want to charge premium price, they’d better have a premium product.  I do like their Harris shorts and pants, named after the dawgs own, Harris English.

I’ve had the same with pants lately.. I’m a 36 waist but I’m buying 34. Everything’s stretch band waist, jeans, dress and casual slacks. Thought I must be losing weight. Shirts I’m a L but certain brands I have to get XL
