Has anyone ordered one of their shirts from their official store?

I want to order one of these shirts from their official store but I am worried about the size. Band shirts always seem to differ on me. I am 6 ft and about 178-180 pounds. I run and I lift weights if that makes a different in helping me pick size. Should I order a medium or large? And are the sleeves tight cause I usually like them tighter than loose?

The sleeves on my XL were loose. Fast shipping as well/

Which one did you order?

i ordered a hoodie from the store a few years back, the size was pretty standard.... it fits great

One warning, I don't know if others have had this experience but I've had two of the shirts shrink when I put them in the dryer even on a very low setting. I air dry them now. Just something to consider.

So do you think I should get a Large then? Ugh, I HATE ordering shirts online!!!!!!

The "Mama we came to dance" shirt. Black, with a ferris wheel on the front.

Well I haven't ordered any of the guys shirts, but I usually get small shirts but both of mine are medium and fit perfectly, so they probably run a bit on the small side. So maybe go a size up, and just be careful about drying it. or go two sizes up and don't worry about drying it. Of course watch that be the one shirt that doesn't shrink, haha.

THANKS for all your help! I think I am going to go with a large. Better to be safe than sorry.

Does anyone have the record player hoodie? I wondered if it was heavy or thin material.

How long do they usually take to come in the mail? I need to be reppin The Gaslight Anthem ASAP!!!!

I got mine in 5 days I think. Btw http://stores.homestead.com/gaslight/-strse-1/The-Gaslight-Anthem-T-dsh-Shirt/Detail.bok that is the one I purchased.

Yeah, Jimmy, I like that shirt a lot and was thinking about getting that one but I have way to many black shirts. I thought about changing it up. I got the red one with the gas guy on it and the white one with the sailor. All their shirts are awesome I think.

I was thinking about getting a 45 shirt whenever they are available. I need to lighten up my shirts as well. I have about 2 white shirts-one is a Pittsburgh Penguins shirt. I have a couple grey shirts, and the rest are black (about 9 more)

Thin - I guess you didnt see my post a few weeks back when you asked about it in the spam thread. Razz

Speaking of this...I wonder when the "45" stuff comes out...probably around the time the CD comes out huh? Maybe there will be a deluxe package with a shirt?

Ah good ok. That's what I was hoping! Something for the low 60s/high 50s weather. Thanks!

I have the Cherry Blossom shirt and it shrank a lot in the dryer. Well, actually, it only got shorter. Way shorter.

I also have the Lion hoodie and ordered up a size and it fits perfectly. Just putting that info out there for anyone thinking of ordering it.

I have 9 Gaslight t-shirts now and they all fit pretty standard to anywhere else. I LOVE MA GASLIGHT STUFF. oh + 3 hoodies/jacket

I remember the cherry blossom shirt fitting really weirdly. I ended up DIY'ing it into a tank top thing.

Why is the anchor only in 2XL?? I've got a couple of the others but I want the anchor!

Yes--got a flying wings shirt in Large and it was kind of short in length

Thinking about ordering some Gaslight stuff there...haven't found any information on the ways of payment they accept?

Could you please help me out?

By the way, I'm trying to order from Germany.
