Getting your hands on PaymoneyWubby merch is a big deal, whether it's the iconic green hoodie or a limited drop tee. But nothing kills the hype faster than pulling it out of the package only to find it's two sizes too big or tight in the wrong places. This guide breaks down Wubby's sizing so you can order with confidence and wear your merch proud.
Understanding PaymoneyWubby Sizing Charts
PaymoneyWubby merch is typically printed on standard blanks from brands like Gildan or independent cut-and-sew garments for special drops. The sizing charts on the store page are your first stop, but they can be misleading if you don't know what to look for. Most charts list chest width, body length, and sleeve length in inches. However, the fit can vary between product types and even between drops.
For example, the classic Wubby hoodie often uses a relaxed fit that runs slightly large. The t-shirts, especially the ones with heavy front prints, tend to be true to size for most people. Always check the specific size chart for the item you're buying, not a generic one. The Wubby community has noted that some limited edition items use different blanks, so pay attention to product descriptions that mention fabric weight or style.
How to Measure Yourself for the Best Fit
Forget relying on your usual t-shirt size. Grab a soft measuring tape and follow these steps to get accurate numbers. Wear a shirt you're comfortable in, but avoid baggy or tight clothing that would skew the measurements.
- Chest: Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, just under the armpits. Keep it horizontal and snug but not tight. If you're between sizes, round up for a relaxed fit or down for a slimmer fit.
- Length: Measure from the highest point of your shoulder (where a shirt seam would sit) straight down to where you want the hem to fall. For hoodies, allow an extra inch for coverage.
- Sleeve: Start at the center of your back, just below the neck, and run the tape over your shoulder, down your arm to your wrist. Keep your arm slightly bent for a natural reach.
Write down your numbers and compare them directly to the chart. Don't add extra inches for shrinking unless you plan on hot drying, which we'll cover later.
Comparing Hoodie vs T-Shirt Sizing
Wubby hoodies and tees fit differently, even for the same size number. Hoodies are designed to be layered, so they generally have more room through the chest and longer sleeves. In a medium hoodie, you might have a 22-inch chest width, while a medium tee is closer to 20 inches. That means many people size down one for hoodies compared to their t-shirt size.
T-shirts from PaymoneyWubby often use a heavier cotton blend that holds its shape well. They tend to run true to size with a standard, not slim, cut. If you prefer a fitted look, go with your normal size. For a relaxed, streetwear vibe, size up one. Just keep in mind that oversized tees with large front prints can sometimes feel stiff, so avoid going too large if the print covers most of the shirt.
Tips for Getting the Right Size Every Time
Here are four proven tips from the Wubby community to nail your sizing.
1. Read the product description. Wubby drops sometimes include notes like "this hoodie runs large" or "fits slim." Trust those notes over the size chart.
2. Wash and dry low. Most Wubby blanks are 100% cotton or a cotton-poly blend. Cotton can shrink up to 5% in high heat. To avoid surprises, wash cold and tumble dry low. If you machine dry on high, expect the hoodie to shrink a half size, especially in length.
3. Check recent reviews. On the store page, look for reviews from buyers with similar builds. If you're 5'10" and 170 lbs, see what size they chose. The community is active and often shares fit pics.
4. When in doubt, size up. You can always shrink a hoodie, but you can't stretch a tee. A slightly larger relaxed fit is usually more comfortable for lounging or streaming marathons. And if you're between chart sizes, go with the larger one unless the product notes say otherwise.
Getting your sizing right means less hassle and more time flexing your Wubby gear. Measure once, check the chart twice, and you'll be golden.
