stevopagolf Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Looking at some titleist Japan clothing, pullovers/shirts. I am between a large or extra large in the US. Would I be a LLL or LL in Japan sizing? I am not a giant nor a big chubby. 6ft about 195 any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miuramaniac Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 I think you would be size Sasquatch in Japanese. lol Seriously, all the stuff I've gotten from Japan is about one size smaller than the US counterpart. I can do Medium in Japanese but sometimes Small in US swallows me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevopagolf Posted January 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 I might have to move to Asia to feel like a Giant! Barley above average in the states! Thanks guys for the feedback! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Everything is at least a size up... AT LEAST. ie I am a Small in the West but a Medium in Japan. If you are an L, you are at least LL or XL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffer19 Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Besides being smaller than western sizes, different brand would have different in sizing specs. I could be wear a LL on PRGR or Munsingwear yet might be wearing a L on some Mizuno (I am a M on 'normal' US size). If you really want to buy JDM golf clothing online, best to test out a brand and size first. Edited January 23, 2014 by Duffer19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For instance, I have usually wear Small or Medium size in the US, but in Japan I wear atleast an L. Keep in mind that Japan clothes tend to be more slim fit too.

coops1967 Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 I'm pretty much your size ,6ft and 195 lbs, and do like a bit of Muji... Thing is only their largest size they have fits me, even then some shirts are still too tight across the shoulders. Very hard to say from brand to brand on top of everything else, you'd be best to try before buying if at all possible... But minimum one step more...more like 2 minimum compared to US sizing, ie Medium US would be XL for a lot of Muji clothing. I'm assuming Uniqlo will be changing their labelling when they go in the US market... And buying more yards of cloth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 I have a really hard time finding JDM apparel, even within the same brand I.e taylormade one Series LL is not the same as another series LL. Uniqlo omg! It's been a decade since I could fit their largest size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevopagolf Posted January 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Thanks for the input guys! Usually the shoulder size is where the pinch point is. I think I will try LLL to start.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
