13406228, "Model is 6'-1" and wearing a size Medium".... man FOH with that... Posted by FLUIDJ, Fri Oct-02-20 11:56 AM THEY BE LYING!! When shopping for clothes online most modern sites will provide this sort of information so you can get an idea of what size you need....they STAY misleading IMO.... For instance this.... https://www.patagonia.com/product/mens-terrebonne-joggers/24540.html?dwvar_24540_color=SMDB&cgid=root&utm_source=em&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=100220_trail_running_bottoms I'm 5'-10" 172 lbs and I haven't fit in a medium anything since 8th grade.... Why they be doing folks like that?? "Get ready....for your blessing....." "Bury me by my Grand-Grand and when you can come follow me"
13406230, LMAO Posted by infin8, Fri Oct-02-20 11:59 AM dawg I ordered some slim fit joggers based on that 'model is 6'1"' bullshxt and I had to give em to my daughter. thass whut my old fat ass gets. I went to JcPenny and bought somne proper Champion sweats and left it ALONE. edit somehow my brother is 6'1" and the large worked for him; I'm 5'9" and it was a NAW https://breakbrunch.com/old-man-with-skinny-jean/
13406231, I've taken to measuring my clothes that fit the way I want Posted by MEAT, Fri Oct-02-20 12:01 PM Not necessarily myself at all, but the clothes. It's been way more helpful than any of this other shit.
13406262, when in doubt, I just cop 2 of everything and return what doesn't fit.... Posted by FLUIDJ, Fri Oct-02-20 12:39 PM I'm usually pretty stable in sizes...but sometimes even my go-to brands be changing up their cuts and throwing me off....

13406233, ...there’s a size/fit guide on the page... Posted by bentagain, Fri Oct-02-20 12:08 PM

13406260, I always wondered about that.. Posted by jimi, Fri Oct-02-20 12:38 PM model is 6 feet tall wearing a small but in the pic the shirt looks baggy . fuck kind of shit is that?
13406263, on some "Camera adds 5lbs & 6" " ..... be having me questioning my physique Posted by FLUIDJ, Fri Oct-02-20 12:40 PM and shit... "Get ready....for your blessing....." "Bury me by my Grand-Grand and when you can come follow me"
13406264, right?! I'm over here like "damn, maybe I need to work out more" Posted by jimi, Fri Oct-02-20 12:44 PM @silentintellect
13406268, LOL, I backed out of a Bonobos sale because of this Posted by double negative, Fri Oct-02-20 12:54 PM I know their line well but it was a last chance item with no returns. I just backed out of it, covid has me rethinking purchases. normally I would have just picked up the item and rocked with it and worn different ways if I went with the M or L. These days, I'm like, who the fuck is going to see me? I havent had a haircut since goddamn April.
13406276, Oh Bonobos had me REAL fcked up in the game back in January!! Posted by FLUIDJ, Fri Oct-02-20 01:10 PM I had a 2 week, out of state training program coming up and I waited until the last minute to cop new business casual digs...that's on ME.... But...Bonobos came up on my feed (thanks to The Algorithm) and I was like "Bet...this is right up my alley!" I.WENT.IN! Copped EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK for the Weekday Warrior line.. Even sprung for expedited shipping.... Dawg... NONE of them joints fit right... NADA... look at this cat!! https://bonobos.com/products/stretch-weekday-warrior-dress-pants?color=monday%20blue "Model is 6'2" with a 32" waist, and is wearing a 32x32 in Slim Fit" GTFOH! How he 6' 2" wearing a 32" inseam and STILL got a break on his loafers like that????!!?? Since i'm only 5' 10", I ordered 30" inseams off the strength of that alone.... ALL them shits were flooding....on top of the fact that my thighs were trying to bust the fck out of them shits.... never. again. "Get ready....for your blessing....."

13406290, $89 for joggers is the real outrage Posted by falafel stand pimpin, Fri Oct-02-20 01:26 PM As long as it has the Patagonia logo tho right?
13406295, I've got Patagonia gear from the last Bush era that is still in top shape Posted by FLUIDJ, Fri Oct-02-20 01:28 PM and functionality.... I don't buy it for fashion. I buy it for function. $89 isn't cheap, no....but if I were to spend $89 on them, I would have utmost confidence in their durability and value.... With that said....I never pay full price for clothing. "Get ready....for your blessing....." "Bury me by my Grand-Grand and when you can come follow me"
13406308, Unless it says height and weight its useless Posted by Cenario, Fri Oct-02-20 01:54 PM Im 6'4 200...i used to be 6'4 160. Back then i needed an XL legnth but M waist lol
13406318, I've given up on length and went with fit. I rock Ms and Ls Posted by flipnile, Fri Oct-02-20 02:16 PM With the occasional S thrown in. I'm 6'6" 200. I can find pants but long sleeves are usually like an inch or two too short. My waist is a 32, so even with working out I'm still a skinny dude with muscles.
13406322, I gotta have length Posted by DJR, Fri Oct-02-20 02:27 PM A lot of brands if I buy a large It fits well everywhere....except for when I raise my arms up at all and then I’m looking like an early 90s Miami Hurricane player with my whole stomach showing. So I go XL - which is generally too big. Some companies do have the Large with extra length option though, which works way better than an XL for me.
13406353, Shop stores that have a slim cut Posted by Cenario, Fri Oct-02-20 04:04 PM
