Hi guys,

I have a question for those of you that have purchased the orange limited edition hoodie.
I bought the Brown one at the Camden show for myself, then I decided that I wanted the orange one as well though by that time I was already back home in Miami.. lol

A friend of mine is doing the entire second leg and she bought one of the orange ones for me since I didnt know whether they would still be available at the time that I go to The Gorge though I told her to buy me the orange one in Large not realizing that the Orange one was made on women's size, so it wouldnt be the same Large as the Brown one for men. (if that makes sense)

Im thin though I'm 6'. Has any of you bought the Orange hoodie in Large? And if you have can you tell how tall you are and how well it fits you so that I can have an idea on whether I need to sell that one and get myself maybe an XL?

Your help will be greatly appreciated!
Take care guys and thanks in advance.
Urs

    I bought the large in both....I am a girl and the orange one fits sung..not tight but not baggy. I am only 5'4" and some what busty. My Husband is 6'3" and slightly over 200lbs.(maybe 205)and there is no way he would fit it. The large brown would fit him just fine, and it's baggy on me. Hope this gives some insight.

    Well Im not busty at all!!! probably more on the other side of the fence on that one.... LOL
    The large brown kinda fits me a little baggy and if you say that your husband is 6'3 and 200lbs aprox. and the large brown fits him then the orange should be fine for me on the Large.
    I'm 6', 160 lbs

    Thanks for answering

    Urs,

    Im wearing it only in the office so that AC is on and I dont sweat.. LOL
    I havent washed mine either....

    I think Im going to hand wash it and avoid hitting the numbers when I do that.
    Me too I'm afraid they will wash off.

    My girlfriend purchased the women's in a large and it fits her fine. She is approx. 5'10" and 150 lbs. The hoodie is not tight but it does fit snuggly. The length in the arms and torso is perfect. Also, she ended up having to wash hers (as much as it pained her) and she decided to hand wash it in cold water with some woolite. The water turned a little red so she thought that it had run all over it but when she pulled it out and got the soap out it was fine. Good luck with yours.

    Yeah by the responses I think Ill be doing ok.
    Im 6' though sometimes I think I shrink.. LOL and I'm 5'11
    It sounds like since Im thin and not "busty" itll fit me just fine.

    thanks for the feedback

    I asked him if he wanted one but he chose the Avocado thermal instead (we were freezing in New Jersey after sitting at the door for 3 hours to be first in line to get a poster...brrr) so I was like DAMN!!! now I have to buy the Orange for myself lol ... (you see buying it for him was the cover since we wear the same size)..

    I was at both Camdens (HOT AS SHIT) and we had nothing but jeans thinking it would be not cold but not hot either.
    Almost froze to death in East R. on June 3rd we took nothing but shorts.

    Next time I'll check the weather channel.
    Being from Miami cold weather doesnt really go that well for us....lol

    It so wasnt 70 degrees!!! Are you sure we are talking about the same show? :)

    We got to Newark and it was raining and then we walked from the hotel (1 mile) to the Continental Airlines Arena and by the time we got there our shoes were soaked with the water from the puddles and we were freezing, it might have been the high 50's until like 9 or 10 but when we left and we were waiting for a cab across from the Arena for an hour it had to be lower than that, we were freezing, we ended up both with a nasty cold.

    I heard the weather was pretty nice though for the first East Rutherford which we couldnt go to.

    Yeah we were waiting for the poster too and that was the only thing in my mind.. LOL
    I dont have much recollection either from the people at the line, first night I was wearing the light green forest t-shirt and the second night I was wearing the Avocado T-shirt.

    My seats were BB-(i cant remember the exact seats) and on the second night it was row M( 15 and 16)

    I dont think there was mm, it went from a -z and then AA and BB and then section 200's started (if Im not mistaken) we were on the first night on section 101 row BB seats [Stone's side) ( 7 and 8 ) im not 100% sure about the exact seats though, and for night 2 we were on Mike's side on row M on seats 15 and 16.
