The Apres Short in Organic Deep Sea Foundation Twill

Owners and reviewers agree Taylor Stitch runs true to size, but the cuts are slim and every pant ships with a long (34"+) inseam.

Reviewers who tested multiple pieces report the brand fits true to its own size chart — one who sized down against the chart got a jacket that was uncomfortably snug and now advises trusting the listed size. Because shirts and knits cut slim, the recurring advice is to take the larger size if you fall between two. On bottoms, waists run true but reviewers consistently flag long inseams — one measured roughly 35-36 inches on a size 34 — so shorter wearers should plan to cuff or hem. A minority of owners report item-level inconsistency, notably on tees, where one buyer had to go from a 40 medium to a 42 large.

Sizing advice: Order your usual size (chest size for shirts), size up only if between sizes since cuts run slim, and budget for hemming pants — inseams start at 34 inches.

What's my size at Taylor Stitch?

Reviewers describe the range as split between casual drawstring styles and more technical pairs: the casual shorts use organic cotton fabrics reviewers call light and comfortable, sitting between chino shorts and athletic shorts in formality, while the technical pairs blend organic cotton with nylon and spandex and add a water-repellent finish and drainage-hole pockets. Coverage of build quality is consistently positive, with one long-term brand reviewer calling material, build, weight, and feel all high quality. The same reviewer's complaints centered on drawstring quality and button stitching — relevant since drawstring waists feature across the casual shorts — and notes that customer reviews of the brand are mixed, with complaints about customer service.

Strengths

Fabric and construction quality draw consistent praise across both the casual organic-cotton styles and the stretch-blend technical pairs.

Watch out for

The reported weak points are the small stuff — drawstring quality and button stitching — plus recurring complaints about the brand's customer service.

Sizing

The technical shorts' 8-inch inseam is reported to hit at or above the knee for most wearers, and the casual styles use forgiving drawstring waists.
