So, how oversized is too oversized?
Although this is personal preference, we’d recommend sizing up by one or two sizes if the product is not already oversized, or by just one size if the product already has an oversized fit and you want it slightly bigger.
You can also use the model sizing onsite to figure out your desired fit/navigate how many sizes based on the model fit.
