Overview
If you've ever ordered a hoodie or tee from the official Trash Taste store, you know the excitement of unboxing can also come with a moment of doubt: "Did I pick the right size?" Since the boys - Garnt, Connor, and Joey - have chatted about sizing mishaps on the podcast (remember the debate about Joey's 'tent' hoodie in Ep. 2026-03?), it's a real concern. This guide breaks down how Trash Taste merch fits, what measurements to trust, and how to avoid the dreaded exchange process.

How the Official Store Sizes Its Apparel
The Trash Taste's merch collection generally uses standard unisex sizing, but there are quirks per product. Here's what we've gathered from fan reviews, podcast call-outs, and direct measurements:
- Classic Logo Tee ($29.99): 100% preshrunk cotton. Runs true to size - if you usually wear a medium, grab a medium. But it's on the slimmer side, so if you prefer a looser fit, size up.
- Oversized Hoodie ($69.99): Designed to be baggy. A large fits like an XL in other hoodies. Many fans in the Trash Taste subreddit say to stick with your normal size for the intended look, unless you want an extra-oversized silhouette (Joey's style).
- Gaming Mousepad ($24.99): Not apparel, but width matters - it's 900x400mm, so ensure your desk space.
- Limited Edition Drop (e.g., the 2026 World Tour Tee): These often use a thicker, more structured cotton. Connor mentioned on the podcast that the tour tee fit him a bit snugger than the classic line, so consider sizing up if between sizes.
Measuring Yourself (The Right Way)
Forget guessing your shirt size. Here's the method endorsed by the Trash Taste crew (they measured themselves live during a 2026 episode): 1. Chest: Wrap a tape measure under your armpits, around the fullest part of your chest. 2. Length: Measure from the top of your shoulder (where a seam would sit) down to where you want the hem to hit. 3. Sleeve: From the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff.
Compare these numbers to the size chart on each product page - the official store provides detailed measurements for every item.
Common Fit Questions from Fans
Based on comments from the community and the boys' own stories:
- "Are the hoodies shrink-proof?" - Most are preshrunk, but cold wash and low heat are still recommended. Joey once joked that he shrank a hoodie to "child size" by accident.
- "What if I'm between sizes?" - For tees, go up. For hoodies, go down if you want the intended fitted look, up if you want the baggy anime protagonist vibe.
- "Do sizes differ between drops?" - Yes. The 2026 "Gfuel Collab" tee ran a full size larger than the standard. Always check the specific item chart.
Regional Sizing Differences
Since Trash Taste ships worldwide, the store uses US sizing as the baseline. If you're used to Asian or European sizes, you'll likely need to go up one or two sizes. Garnt (from the UK) often complains that US mediums fit him like a UK small.

FAQ
How do Trash Taste hoodies fit?
The oversized hoodie is intentionally baggy. If you wear a size L in other brands, an L in Trash Taste's hoodie will give you that relaxed, boxy look. If you prefer a more fitted appearance, size down.
Are the t-shirts true to size?
Generally yes, but the classic logo tee runs slightly slim. If you're between sizes or want a looser fit, order the larger size. The 2026 World Tour tee runs tighter - check the size chart.
What if I'm between sizes?
Go with the larger size for tees, and the smaller size for hoodies (unless you want extra baggy). The official size chart includes chest and length measurements - compare your own to be sure.
Can I return or exchange if the size is wrong?
Yes, the official Trash Taste store accepts returns within 30 days for unworn items. They ship a replacement size quickly. Connor mentioned on stream that the return process is "painless," but keep tags on.
How do I measure myself correctly?
Use a soft tape measure. For chest, wrap it around the fullest part under your arms. For length, measure from the shoulder seam down. Write down the numbers and compare to the product's size chart on the store page. - -
If you're after a comfortable tee that matches the fit you just dialed in, the Classic Logo Tee is a solid start. - -
