Boxy Fit Hoodie: Which Size Should I Get?

You see a hoodie that falls short and wide, and you wonder: do I take my usual size or one down? With a boxy fit that is a fair question, because the cut works differently from a classic hoodie. Here is how to find the right size.

What boxy fit means

A boxy fit hoodie falls wide and straight from the upper body instead of hugging it, and it is cut shorter, so slightly cropped. That creates the typical square silhouette. So if it sits wide, it is not too big. It is meant to be that way.

The most reliable trick

Take a hoodie whose fit you like, lay it flat and measure three values:

Chest (A): armpit to armpit, just below the sleeves.
Length (B): from the highest point of the shoulder, next to the hood, down to the hem.
Sleeve (C): from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff.

Then compare these values with our chart.

Our measurements

SizeA ChestB LengthC Sleeve

L666359
XL696560

Measurements in cm, laid flat. Chest is the half width, double it for the circumference. Deviations of 1 to 2 cm are normal on sewn garments. For reference: our model is 183 cm tall and wears size M.

Smaller or bigger?

Both are right, it depends on your look.

Your usual size wears the way the hoodie was designed: wide, short, with room.
One size down stays boxy but sits closer to the body.
One size up gives more room and about 2 cm more length.

The slight shrinking on the first wash is already factored into our measurements.

What goes with it

A short, wide hoodie looks best with wide trousers, that keeps the proportions right. The Violet joggers in a relaxed wide-leg fit are made for exactly that.

Still not sure?
