The fit
Boxy. Oversized. Drops below the hip. One cut, both garments, no slim version.
Both pieces use the same cut. Boxy. Oversized. Generous through the chest. The hem drops just below the hip. The shoulder line sits a little wide on purpose. The sleeves are long enough to cover the wrist when your arms are at your sides.
It is one cut, applied to both the hoodie and the tee. There is no slim version, no tailored version, no tall version, no relaxed-fit and athletic-fit-and-classic-fit fork in the menu. The cut is the cut.
Why one cut
Two reasons. The first is practical: a small studio that makes one cut can make it properly. Fitting a single block, perfecting a single block, refining a single block over years — that is how a small workshop ends up with a piece that is genuinely better than the sum of its parts. Multiple cuts means multiple compromises. Multiple compromises means the cuts become average.
The second reason is philosophical: the cut we chose ages well, and most cuts do not. Boxy oversized is a silhouette that has existed for a hundred years and will exist for another hundred. Slim-fit is a 2010s trend. Athletic-fit is a marketing term. Relaxed-fit is what sized-up labels call the same garment. We picked the silhouette that does not date.
What "boxy" means here
The body of the garment is wider than your torso. The shoulders sit a fraction beyond yours, by perhaps a centimetre on each side. The chest has at least eight centimetres of ease, which means there is space between the cloth and your skin. The hem drops just below the hip-bone, ending where most clothing brands' "regular" cut would end if it were untucked.
The garment does not cling. The body sits inside the garment.
You can wear a long-sleeve underneath. You can layer a tee under the hoodie. You can wear it over a button-down, sleeves rolled up at the cuff. You can wear it alone in a warm room. The cut accommodates all of that without altering the line.
What "oversized" doesn't mean
It does not mean dropped sleeves to your fingertips. It does not mean a hem to your knees. It does not mean unreasonably wide. It means the silhouette is generous within the bounds of looking like a normal piece of clothing. If you put it on and it looks like you are wearing your older sibling's hoodie, the cut is too big. If you put it on and it pulls anywhere, the cut is too small. We aimed for the middle of those two.
Sizing
Five sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL. Each fits a roughly fifteen-centimetre chest range. We do not stock half-sizes, tall versions, or short versions. The size you take in another oversized brand is most likely the size you take in WRTH. If you usually take a regular fit elsewhere and want a noticeable boxy oversized look, take one up.
If you have to ask whether it fits, it fits. That is what an oversized cut is for.
