cleeter Posted November 25, 2023 Posted November 25, 2023 Looking to get a new pair of Candy Stripes for Christmas. The ones I have I got YEARS ago. They have buttons up the side and “IU” logo on them. I wear XL in everything basically and that’s the size I got in them and they are HUGE. In saying that, I was looking into buying more. I’ve noticed they look different as the say “Hoosiers” on them and not the logo. So, 1) do those have buttons or no2) Are those official and just new design3) Do the new/different ones run multiple sizes bigger 4) does any of this make sense to anyone reading this. Thanks in advance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Joe_hoopsier 1 Quote

Fit more like sweatpants than just warmups. Quote

I know the XL button up run way big because I got an XL and had to roll them up at the waist and they still dragged the ground. Basically should I order normal size on the newer ones, or go sizes down. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

If you want the older ones you will have to find them from someone selling them. Quote

I was just wanting to make sure that were the like official adidas ones and not an off brand or anything. And then trying to find out if they run true to size or run big. You covered the first question, now just need someone to help with the second haSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

I have to roll my button up pair a couple times around the waist. Quote

Do you have the same size in the newer style ones as the button ups or did you go a size down compared to button ups. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
