Overall fit
slightly small
Most shoppers find rag & bone runs close to label size but cut narrow, so athletic or broader builds often end up one size up while slimmer builds stay true to size.
Tip: Take your usual size if you're slim-built, but size up in tops, shirts and outerwear if you're broader or plan to layer.

By category
| Category | Runs | Shape | Size advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hoodies & sweatshirts | true to size | regular to slightly relaxed depending on season | Stick with your usual size; only size up if you want a deliberately oversized look. |
| Jackets | slightly small | slim, tailored through the shoulder and chest | Size up if you'll wear a knit or hoodie underneath, as the chest and sleeves are cut close. |
| Jeans & denim | true to size | slim and tapered across the core Fit 2 / Fit 3 blocks | Buy your usual waist — stretch pairs relax about half a size after a few wears, so avoid sizing up. |
| Shirts & overshirts | slightly small | slim, tapered through the waist with a higher armhole | Broader chests and bigger biceps should size up; slim builds can stay true to size. |
| T-shirts & graphic tees | slightly small | slim and body-following, though newer relaxed styles exist | Size up if you want any drape or a longer body, otherwise expect a close fit. |
| Trousers & pants | true to size | slim to straight | Order your measured waist and expect a trim leg. |
