fit of penguin polos

[saepnirg]

hey all been lookin at a bunch of penguin polos online but kinda unsure about their fit. are they supposed to fit tight? is there a polo comparable to them fit-wise? ralph lauren or lacoste? and is their EARL line supposed to be tighter fit? thanks loads

Penguin are a tight fit. Id go up a size. A large penguin compare with a large lacoste or polo is certainly the smallest out of the 3. Im a large and wear XL penguin

i buy penguin in mostly L, and i normally wear a Med in most brands..depends on how fitted you want them to be. i can wear a med penguin but it just feels too snug for comfort. the L isnt that much bigger than a med either, but *just enough*

all penguin earls are heritage fit (penguin's term for slim fit); my size smalls are 17 inches from armpit to armpit. other penguin polos come either in heritage fit or the more relaxed classic fit.

I have a penguin polo shirt, and the fit is definately slim. It fits well if you like the slim look, but after I washed my polo it did shrink a bit more. I would go one size larger, or if you buy your regular size, don't dry it warm, or hang dry.

I think they fit really well. The arms are a bit short for work because I have tattoos though so I don't wear them much. When I am not at work I wear a lot of vintage fred perrys, lacoste, and le tigre polos, so my penguins don't see much use these days.

i sold a few earls on ebay and in a size Med, they measured around 36-7" on the chest
