    I finally tried on my EV shirts, size M.

    HOLY CRAP. These feel like XS to me. I'm normally an XS-S, and no way is an M comfortable for me. It also doesn't feel like there's much give, I kinda feel like a whale in it :lol::lol:

    I'm just remembering that I've started buying the womens shirts in L just to avoid that whale feeling.

    In short, they either run super small, or I've been having a sudden sideways growth spurt :lol::lol:

    PS No offense to whales.

    I'd be curious to hear what the other ladies think. I'm just one data point :)

    I bought a large and it's more like a medium. I knew from previous purchases that these shirts always run small. I will wash it in cold water and not put in the dryer. Losing a couple of pounds and lots of sit ups would help too. ;)

    I agree, just got my L & its a bit snug, should have got a XL but there were none or a Mens M ...... wish they would get the ladies t-shirts that are the more stretchy softer type ..... that I have got from other concerts that are a L and fit fine.

    There's not a lot of give in these ones ..... oh well

    Mine is too small also. I was planning to wear it as a sleep shirt, so I wanted it extra large...but it's way too small to sleep comfortably in. In fact, it's skin tight and too small in the hips so it rides up - therefore, can't be worn for daytime wear either.

    I'm probably gonna give mine to my best friend's 5h grade son. Seriously - it will fit him. And I won't be buying any more ladies tee-shirts from goods anymore. I like the men's shirts just fine anyway, and in truth, they are made sturdier in any case. I've been really happy with all of my shirt purchases from goods in the past, but those were all men's shirts. This is my first disappointment...and I won't be repeating this waste of money again.

    Ah well...it was worth a try....

    I bought a small, I am a UK size 8/10

    The length is perfect, very slim fit, as always theres the choke factor with the neck and it's tight across the boobs (We have boobs 10c please accomodate them :)

    Will be chopping the neckline so I can breathe & give the girls some air :) But then thats standard with PJ tees so was expecting this of the vedder tee too. Theres never been a tee that actually fitted me, but it's close enough & I'm very happy with it.
    Sometimes I speak of nothing at all.

    I just ordered my shirt in a L and I'm normally a medium. I am hoping it fits but its not sounding good :( Please 10C make shirts for us ladies that have boobs and hips - I hate wearing the mens shirts - if they fit right in the boob/hip area then it is way too big in the waist - boo!
    Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

    Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned...

    I ordered a large and usually wear medium, figured they would run small due to past experience. These are smaller than ts I have ordered in the past. The large are definitely snug, but I can wear them and they look ok. They just don't have any give to them. I did accidentally put one in the dryer after the first wear and it doesn't appear to have shrunk, so that's the good news :)

    Are these made by American Apparel? If so, they do run super small. Their website has some measurements (if they are indeed made by AA) I know some shirts in the past were. I could be way off here so if so, sorry!

    I bought a Med, i thought they had sent me a girls small! I had to go to XXL to get one that somewhat let me breathe. Bought a Mens Med for EV Aus 2011, and that fit fine. AA sucks!

    I don't think this a true ladies t shirt. It's a straight fit kinda like a man's tshirt. I've bought other women's t shirts that are normally fitted but more generous at the hips and boobs. That said, I am normally a ladies Medium but ordered a large and it was tight especially in the hips - kinda didn't mind in the boobs :D I definitely could have used an XL but will keep this since they didn't have any larger sizes and hope my weight loss continues.

    I had the same thing happen with the shirts in '09, bought a medium at a show and didn't try it on till the next day and it was too small. But I contacted 10c and they let me exchange it for the next larger size which unfortunately was also too small. ( they didn't have the same style so I got a different one in a larger size) I will now go at least 2 sizes larger and I can always alter it if it's too big but if it's too small it will just hang in my closet. I have several that are hanging in my closet now waiting to become my PJ tshirt quilt once I have enough. Try exchanging it if it's possible, 10c was very cool about the whole thing. :D

    What is up with these T-shirts? :fp: The wives/girlfriends of the band need to set them straight! I'm sure they would not wear thick, heavy cotton, too small, too short, up to the neck T's!!! I would love to have just a simple 50/50 lightweight. 10C, are you listening?? We would buy way more Ts if they were quality Ts.
