Mrs. Greyout got me a Mclaren T-shirt, and the size is confuses to me.

I wear a medium T-shirt. Last year, I got a Mclaren T-shirt in medium. It shows up, fits perfect. Tag says UK:M US:S JP:L But it fits fine so who cares.
This new shirt was also ordered a medium. It shows up, again tag says UK:M US:S JP:L But it fits way the **** too small.

They've taken the size zero philosophy too far

that is unfortunate that the sizing varies as they source the shirts from different places. i've had the same issue being a fat lazy american. some places now spec out the actual cloth dimensions but then you still have to go measure a shirt that fits you to sort it all out. mclaren doesn't have any special info on sizing do they?

being an F1 fan in the US is a labour of love.

They're going for the fitted look. You see it all the time in the Vegas clubs with dudes in Ed Hardy shirts.

and thus you only own 3 pairs of pants. The real question is; how many blouses do you own?

European sizing sold in the US.

Since getting a desk job I have given up on shopping at H&M. I don't look like a Kenyan long distance runner so the clothes don't fit me right.
