Does Orvis run big or small?

Orvis runs large. Most shoppers do best sizing down one, especially in shirts and outerwear, unless they want a genuinely loose layering fit. Orvis cuts to traditional, older-skewing American sizing, so garments typically land roomier than modern fits and many buyers report going a size down for a cleaner silhouette.
