True to size

Owners report James Perse's numeric sizing (0=XS up to 5=XXL) runs true to size, with a deliberately relaxed, California-casual cut rather than a slim one.

Reviewers and sizing guides agree the numbered sizing maps predictably to standard sizes and stays consistent across tees, tanks, long sleeves, and sweats — one long-term owner wears the same size 1 across every James Perse product she owns. The caveat owners flag is that the house cut is intentionally roomy: tees and sweats read slightly relaxed at your true size, so people wanting a trim fit sometimes size down, while button-ups and polos can wear looser than the marked size suggests. On the women's side, fitted jersey pieces are the exception — reviewers note the skinny and fitted styles run small, and pants are cut long.

Sizing advice: Take your usual size converted to the number scale (0=XS, 2=M, 3=L); size down only if you want a trim fit in the relaxed tees and sweats, and size up in fitted jersey styles.

What owners report about James Perse button-ups

Third-party coverage of this brand's woven shirts is thin — most owner discussion centers on its knits, and one brand review notes the polos are considered its best item. Where buyers review the shirts directly, reports split: some praise the linen shirts as soft, well made and well colored, while others report looser-than-expected fit and thin materials they consider poor value at the price. Longtime forum owners advise that the US-made pieces hold up better than the imported ones.

Strengths: The linen shirts draw specific owner praise for softness, make quality and color.
Watch out for: Reports of thin fabric relative to price and looser-than-expected fit, with forum posters flagging the imported (non-US-made) production as the weaker buy.
Sizing: Buyers report the shirts fit looser than the marked size suggests, so consider sizing down if you want a trimmer fit.
