Merrill HWC Jacket: Should I Order a Large or XL?

[chefsteph07]

Is anyone ordering the Merrill HWC jacket?
I am really debating about it, but I"m wondering how to size..I am usually a Large, but don't know if I should order XL..I don't have much experience w/ them and their sizing...would it be the same as the black pullover jacket?

I'm sorry I can't answer your question because I don't have the jacket, as I look like dog droppings in the color pink, but I also have a question about Merrill's clothing. What is everyone's favorites? I only have the Yellow V-Neck and hate it! Are any of the other's better than this one?

I have all thier T-Shirts & they are true to size & very good quality. Now about the Polo Shirts....last year at Conference I bought the Black one & fits great(a little thin though) so I decided to get the Blue one & it runs smaller & shorter! I'm dying to get the new HWC shirt, but in the pic it looks like it runs small, I would just like to know how small....

Do you have the scoop neck t's? I bought the HWC shirt in a Med and I think the sizing is comparable to the scoop shirt. I usually wear anything from a 6 to a 10 (sizing is just not fun!) and I wear a Med in these shirts. I also have the 3/4 sleeve button shirt and I had to get a large in it.

Oh, and I forgot to say that it is a little on the short side....which makes me very happy as I'm short and this one isn't too long on me. The sccop neck shirts are a little bit too long.

Why do you hate it? Sizing or color?

The Ts I have are the crew neck...red,black & lavender. The HWC shirt you bought is this years?

I suffer with terrible perimenopausal hot flashes, and this shirt is of a heavier fabric, so even though it's short sleeved it's too warm for me. The color is okay, better than the other color they offered, but I hate most of the colors of the shirts they offer. Pale colors make me look totally washed out, so I tend to go for rich jewel tone clothing.Besides which, they don't offer enough in short sleeved shirts. I'm hoping now that warmer weather is coming they will offer more in the way of short sleeves.

The polos they have, 1 in black & the other in blue, they are on the unisex pages...they are pretty thin. HTH

I have the windbreaker & it is true to size.

Yes, this years. I think the shirt measurements are posted on the Merril site, that's why I went with the Med.

From the looks in the pic, I think it will run small, the model is really thin & it looks like it might be form fitting....HTH

That's what I thought too, about the HWC jacket, that it looked a little small...thanks!

I just got the HWC jacket. I usually wear a small, but sometimes need a medium. I ordered this in a small. I think it will be perfect for a Spring jacket, with something light underneath. It seems to be cut pretty true to size, but I think it would seem smaller if you were putting something bulkier under it. Does that make sense?

When I first saw it, I wanted it right away, but the more I looked I decided I would wait....

I have the 3/4 sleeve poloand I will tell you it runs small. I got the xl, and normally that would be roomy (I have a big chest so need the larger size) and it's definately form fitting. I figure ontop of my apron it's alright. But if I were to order it again - I would go up a size. It is a bit thin too. It is however a great length.
