Why Getting the Right Size Matters for Your Alix Earle Merch
Your Alix Earle merch is more than just clothing - it's a piece of the community. When the fit is right, you feel like you're part of the inner circle, ready to take on the day with confidence. A hoodie that's too tight can feel restrictive and miss the relaxed vibe Alix is known for. A tee that's too big might overwhelm your frame and look unintentional.
Getting the size right also means you'll actually wear it. We've heard from fans that their most-loved pieces are the ones that fit perfectly, whether that's a slouchy hoodie that swallows them whole or a tee that hits just right. With the right size, you'll reach for it again and again, making it a true wardrobe staple.
How to Measure Yourself for a Hoodie or Tee
Before you order, take a few minutes to measure yourself. All you need is a soft measuring tape and a mirror. If you don't have one, you can also use a piece of string and a ruler - but a tape is easiest.
Here are the key measurements you'll need:
- Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, under your arms. Keep the tape parallel to the floor and snug but not tight.
- Waist: Wrap the tape around your natural waistline, usually just above your belly button. Keep it relaxed.
- Hip: If you want a fuller fit in the body, measure around the widest part of your hips.
- Sleeve length: Start at the center of the back of your neck, run the tape over your shoulder, and down to your wrist. This is the most important measurement for hoodies, because sleeve length varies a lot between sizes.
- Body length: Measure from the top of your shoulder (at the neck seam) straight down to where you want the hem to fall. This helps you decide if you want a cropped or longer look.
For the most accurate results, measure over a t-shirt or light tank, not a bulky sweater. And if you have a favorite oversized hoodie, lay it flat and measure it - that's often the best way to replicate a fit you already love.
Alix Earle Merch Sizing Chart - What to Expect
Most Alix Earle staples follow a standard unisex sizing chart. That means the fit is relaxed and roomy, not tailored. The measurements below reflect the actual garment laid flat, not your body measurements. Use your chest measurement and your preferred amount of ease to choose your size.
| Size | Chest Width (in) | Body Length (in) | Sleeve Length (in) |
|---|---|---|---|
| S | 20 | 27 | 33.5 |
| M | 21 | 28 | 34.5 |
| L | 22 | 29 | 35.5 |
| XL | 23 | 30 | 36.5 |
| XXL | 24 | 31 | 37.5 |
A quick note: for tees, the body length is about an inch shorter, and the sleeve length is a bit more fitted through the bicep. Hoodies have a roomier arm opening for that relaxed feel. The chart is still a great starting point for both styles.
If you're between sizes, our community overwhelmingly suggests going up. Alix's merch is designed to be slightly oversized, and a little extra room makes the pieces look even more effortless. A size up also gives you a longer body length, which pairs beautifully with leggings or bike shorts.
Fit Notes: If You're Between Sizes or Prefer Oversized
Alix Earle's signature look is all about that oversized, just-threw-this-on confidence. She pairs her hoodies with oversized denim jackets, biker shorts, and cowboy boots. To nail that vibe, you'll want a size that allows the fabric to drape rather than cling.
- True-to-size: This gives you a relaxed but structured fit. The hoodie will have a little room in the body, and the sleeves will hit right at your wrists. This is perfect if you plan to layer a hoodie under a jacket.
- One size up: This is the sweet spot for most fans. The shoulders drop slightly, the sleeves creep past your hands, and the hem sits lower on your hips. It's the classic Alix silhouette you see in her social media posts.
- Two sizes up: If you love a dramatic, slouchy look or are petite and looking for a hoodie-dress effect, this is your move. Just keep in mind that the sleeves will get very long, so you'll need to push them up or cuff them.
If you have a longer torso, don't worry. We've designed our hoodies with a slightly longer body length to accommodate a range of heights. And if you're on the petite side, remember that the body length will naturally fall longer on you - so a size M on a 5'2" frame feels like an L would on someone taller.
Real Fans, Real Fits: What They Say About Sizing
We've gathered feedback from the Hot Mess community and from our own try-ons to give you a real-world picture. The consensus? Our merch runs true to the chart, but most fans find themselves reaching for a size up from their usual.
One fan, Avery, shared: "I'm 5'6" and usually a medium in tees. I ordered a large in the 'Hot Mess' hoodie because I wanted that baggy look like Alix wears. It's perfect - the sleeves hit right at my knuckles and the body is roomy without being ridiculous. I've washed it a few times and it hasn't shrunk much at all."
Another, Jasmine, said: "I'm a true small in most tops, but I went with a medium in the tee. It gives me just enough ease without looking like I'm drowning in fabric. The length is also perfect - it covers my bum, which I love."
And for taller fans, Marcus added: "I'm 6'1" and 180 pounds. I ordered an XL in the hoodie because I wanted a longer torso. The length is perfect, and the sleeves are long enough for me, which is rare. This is legitimately the best-fitting oversized hoodie I own."
These are just a few voices from a much bigger conversation. The general rule we hear again and again: if you're between sizes, go up. You'll join the crew of fans who call Alix's merch their go-to comfort wear.
Find Your Fit and Your Next Favorite Piece
Measuring once takes two minutes, but it saves you the hassle of a piece that isn't quite right. Grab a tape, check the chart, and think about the vibe you're going for. Are you channeling Alix's off-duty model look? Size up. Want a more polished everyday tee? True size works. The choice is yours, and there's no wrong answer.
