Okay, I give up, and you all seem like nice enough people that wont laugh too loudly... :D

Someone translate the hoodie sizes into English? Extra Extra Extremely Huge means nothing to me, and I have a brain that likes to go blank when it has to deal with numbers more complicated than wordcounts :p

Either I'm reading something wrong (likely), the US has its own definition of inches (wouldn't surprise me), or I actually am bigger than their biggest size... I'd never call myself tiny, but I like to think I'm not *that* big :-/

Hmm. I think that the measurements on the size chart are for the garment laid flat. In other words, it's the measurement from armpit to armpit; not all the way around.
I could be wrong, mind, but that seems to give me more or less the result that I expected.

I think lily must be right but what a weird way of measuring!

That IS an odd way to measure!

Anyway. Being Canadian and used to American sizes - I'm typically a Large in women's clothing. My stomach is a Medium, but my breasts bring me in to large. But that's for close-fitting, if I wanted something really bag I'd order a Medium or Large unisex hoodie.

If you can remember me Jozie, then maybe that will help you with the sizes.

Even I know that's a wierd way to figure out a size, and I usually just guess :P Only works when you're actually holding it, though.

Thanks for the help! :D

Yeah, I know this thread is old now :p

But I think it came yesterday! No one was home to take it though so it had to go back to the post office and I have to wait for the stupid 48 hours to be up before I can go get it, boo *sulk*

But still. Yay! :D

Anyone as far behind as me? I'll race you to 40k! :p That's today's goal, as long as I stay away from the TV and the online games it's doable... kinda...
