Glad you liek it :thumbsup: Jon is on to the makers as we speak.

I emailed to ask Chris Craggs to model it when it arrived. Unfortunately he (graciously) declined :-(

I've requested a slit in the back of mine.

Do you two actually talk to each other at work, or just sit back to back in the office, communicating via PM all day?

Furthermore, how are you supposed to skive on UKB at work when your boss is skiving on there too?

I thought I'd ordered a small?!

Are your sons really big or have I made a small miscalculation?!

My bad. Jon changed the order to include smalls:

Tees
Small x 10
Medium x 30
Large x 20

Hoods
Small x 5
Medium x 12
Large x 8
Xlarge x 1 (For Bubba!)

Post by: Tris on March 27, 2010, 03:07:02 pm: I ordered a hoodie which came today. I have a 40" chest so ordered a medium (42" chest) just to be safe. It came today and it's tiny, the arms are about 2 inches too small (chest fits ok) . The missus reckons it looks like a small but the tag does says medium. Is it a woman's medium? ;D

Am going to ask if I can exchange it but will the large be big enough? Anyone got a large? I really don't have giant arms like an octopus, actually I think I have a negative ape index. I am 6ft 2" tall though - don't know if that is classed as freakishly tall, didn't think it was :-\

Never bought clothes off t'interweb before..
Title: Re: UKB 'Dire' T-Shirts and Hoodies available now
Post by: GCW on March 27, 2010, 03:42:40 pm: I have to say I got a large in the "Dire" series, and a large in the old UKB shirt- the new one seems far bigger than the old.
I always go for the biggest size anyway, I hate having tight shirts constricting round my upper arms/axillae.

That's tall in most books. Sorry for the hassle. Hopefully the large will fit.

send it back and we'll refund or exchange, i'll post up the sleeve arm lengths later. Double check you didn't put T-hoodie in you order.

Note for anyone else in denial about their size, we dont judge here, although we do occasionally publish.

Magpie will be looking fine in his/her skimpy double X-small skinny fit.

Post by: Tris on March 29, 2010, 10:25:10 am: Thanks Jon - that's great, it was just a hoodie not a t-hoodie. As Chris says, it is a nice top! :great:

Have emailed you guys back for an exchange... looking forward to getting one that fits

Cheers

Post by: Joepicalli on April 16, 2010, 11:09:42 pm: I just wish to relate the awesomeness of the new hoodies and the excellence of VG's service ( it was subtly suggested that I might (just) be a large and then allowed to try mine on to make sure):I was, it fits beautifully and I now am able to advertise Mr. Craggs' finest comments on my person and still reach those hard to get crimps.
YAY.

Careful when drying them not to put them directly on the radiator as the UKB logo can fade.
