What Size Knit Should I Order?

The Locker Room at The Stands by C.LYNN&CO — a varsity letter cardigan and two knit Tigers sweaters hanging in dark lockers, in black and white.

The Locker Room

Find your fit.

Our knits are cut true to size — the letter you wear in a sweatshirt is the letter to order. Tell us three things and we will suggest the best size for you based on your fit preferences.

Which piece?
What size sweatshirt do you normally wear?

The size you would pick off a rack in an ordinary hooded sweatshirt. Not a dress size.

How do you want it to sit?

LVarsity Cardigan

A family in the Legacy Room at The Stands, each in a custom C.LYNN&CO jacquard knit — a green striped golf cardigan, a navy varsity letter cardigan, a cream script Tigers crewneck, a cream quarter-zip with a chest letter and striped sleeves, and a green all-over Tigers crewneck.
One family, all three knits. Order the size you already wear in each — the quarter-zip measures wider at the same letter because it is cut boxier, not because it is sized differently.
See all three charts

Chest measured all the way around the finished garment. The cardigan and the crewneck are built on the same block. The quarter-zip is its own, which is why the same person often takes a different letter in it.

Garment chest, around. Inches.
Size Cardigan Crewneck Quarter-Zip

All three run true to size. The quarter-zip measures wider at the same letter because it is cut boxier than the cardigan — that is the silhouette, not a different size. The cardigan and the crewneck share one block; the quarter-zip has its own. All three stop at 3XL.

If you would rather measure

A tape around the chest takes ten seconds and beats any guess we can make for you. Compare what you get to the chest figures in the charts above.

Chest, around
Around the fullest part of your chest, under the arms, tape level and snug but not tight.
Or measure a sweater
Lay one you already love flat and measure straight across from armpit to armpit. Double it. That is its chest, around.
Length
From the high point of the shoulder, beside the collar, straight down to the hem.
Sleeve
From the top of the shoulder, down the outside of the arm, to the edge of the cuff.

Every piece is knit to order, so it cannot be exchanged. If you are between sizes and want a second opinion, send your chest measurement to support@clynnco.com and we will tell you what we would order.
