Size Guide
This is a regular fit hoodie. If you’re towards the top end of your size, consider the next size up for a looser fit.
| Dimension | S | M | L | XL | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| a | 19.75 | 20.75 | 22 | 23.25 | inch |

To get the perfect fit, we recommend:
- Look in your wardrobe for a similar piece of clothing – one where you’re happy with the fit.
- Lay it down flat and take the measurements shown in the diagram above.
- Compare those measurements with our size guide.
The actual measurements of a “large” hoodie, or a “medium” t-shirt, can vary significantly between different manufacturers – this method helps you get the right fit first time.
Caring for your Hoodie
A big chunk of the environmental impact a garment has occurs once it’s in your hands. These guidelines not only ensure that your hoodie will last, but also help to keep the planet cool.
- Only wash when it really needs it. This saves energy, water, your time and extends the life of the hoodie.
- When it’s ready for a wash, turn it inside out. This reduces the abrasion on the outside of the hoodie, and helps it keep looking crisp for longer.
- Wash at 30 degrees. Yep, I know, we wash colours at 40 right? Well, there’s no need – it’ll look and smell just great when washed at 30deg (as will most of your clothes!). It’ll also help to cut your electricity bill too – winner!
- Line dry after washing. Hot washing and tumble drying can effect the dimensional stability and can cause fading of the colours.
Environmental
The clothes industry is a particularly dirty industry – we’re trying to do things in a better way!
