Yessir, posted about it yesterday. I wear a Large, I'm 6' 195lb. It fits slightly larger than I personally prefer, and it is a little on the long side(which appears to be the intent), but I'm good with it. Sticking with Large, and will wear the hell out of it.

Uh Oh. If the large has sleeves that are longer than my long monkey arms need, then I guess I will return for a medium. Very disturbing. Usually, I am concerned about stuff with long sleeves being too small, not too large. If you are 6', 195lb., I am in trouble with the large.

The sleeves are fine on me, just a tad baggier in the torso than I prefer. But not that big of a deal, for me anyway

Thanks, Buzz. Just realized you are referring to the hoodie and not the 1/4 zip anyway. I hope the 1/4 zip is only slightly too large - if so, that is not a big deal, since I will probably wear sweatshirts or thicker items under it anyway. But, if it is huge, I will probably have to return for a medium, and because of my arm length, I almost NEVER get a medium.

Just received the Game Mode 1/4 zip— not nearly as big on me as it is on Chris 975d, but these do fit a little long, and a little baggy, the sleeves fit fine. I’m good with it, even though I would prefer shorter and a little less baggy. Definitely not water resistant, at all (@Supersizethatorder-mutt ). Also, very lightweight material.

I just got mine as well. Mine overall fits great. Got a large and I’m a large polo. It’s a little long itself but nothing to get upset about. It might be slightly big overall but I like it and have no complaints.

Ok. Just tried on my Gold 1/4 zip and yes try on before you buy. The arm length was fine on me buy the length was as if i was wearing a tall tee from 2004. (Google if you don’t understand) definitely going to have go done a size. It’s almost like they took all the fabric from the creator series and put it on the game mode apparel

Alright...let’s focus back on why I HATE trying to order anything Adidas, as I’ve mentioned several times in this thread. The long awaited gold GameMode pullover that has finally started shipping this week...here it is.

This thing is LAUGHABLY huge!! This is a XL, same size I wear in most of their tee shirts, and most polos. I have a 46-48 inch chest measurement under the arms and 19+ inch circumference bicep/triceps, so I’m FIRMLY in all manufacturers XL shirts. Look at all the material I have attempted to show billowing around my midsection...I have it gathered up in my hand in the one photo. Sleeves are at least 6” too long. I feel like a 10 year old boy in his dad’s shirt.

I could easily, and I mean easily go down to a medium in this. But didn’t have that luxury of trying on before buying. This is insane.

For reference, here is the fit of an Under Armour XL polo (the white version of the gold and white that I’ve said are the best polos in the bookstore). This one is brand new as well, and fits like all Under Armour fits me. It’s nice to be able to order UA and know the fit beforehand.

And for more reference, here’s the Adidas Creator tee in XL that I posted earlier in the thread. An adidas XL, same “size “ as the pullover...

I guess just know that GameMode means that you can literally apparently wear it OVER actual game shoulder pads...

No joke...at the bookstore now. I got THAT pissed off about the fit...

I’m in a MEDIUM. A medium. A 5ft 9in, 225lb man with a 47” chest in a MEDIUM!

Haha! Such a bad look. What were folks thinking?

The Under Armour polos (the most expensive ones, the $64.xx priced ones) are the best polos in the store. Both in the gold and the white.
Based off of your earlier comments I ordered the UA shirt you reference price wise. Embroidered GT, silk screen UA logo on the sleeve. Appears closer to the GTAA gold than other brands in the past. But the new adidas game mode is slightly darker gold (sand???), got it yesterday.

The white 1/4 zip zip as climalite seems to run large.

The UA ppears better quality than the higher price Adidas shirts. [emoji3525]
Hope it holds up well.

Hahaha wow. Did they exchange it without issue? I am going tomorrow to exchange the State shirt with “Tech” in it. Mine is absolutely massive. Want to go down a size

Yes, I think I will need a medium as well. Fits like a dress. The L polo fit me well, if anything, a little on the small side, and now this tent. I just don't understand the inconsistency. The quality reminds me of the overpriced gold "workout hoodie" shirt from last year. Correct price point would be about $35.

OK. I can't believe I am going to do this, but can anyone that has purchased this jacket tell me how it fits? Is it true to size? Is it lined? It says "medium weight".

I am going to send back the gold 1/4 zip dress, and order this if I can figure out the right size. I like the full zip anyway but wish it were gold.

Thanks.
