Kith sizing: how the tees, jackets and sneakers fit

Kith sizes its tops on a numbered US scale, from XS at 36 to XXXL at 48. Its own help page says most of its apparel runs standard to oversized, depending on the item.

That spread is why the fit questions keep coming. In the last week of September, one buyer on X asked whether a Kith collab shoe runs "true to size or .5 down."

Quick facts

• Tops: XS 36, S 38, M 40, L 42, XL 44, on Kith's US chart
• Numbered tops: 1 is S, 2 is M, 3 is L and 4 is XL
• Bottoms: waist 30 is XS, 32 is S, 34 is M, 36 is L and 38 is XL
• Footwear: US men's sizing, about 1.5 sizes from women's
• Restocks: most products will not restock, Kith says
• Shelf: 51 Kith pieces at $100 to $450 CAD, read 2 October 2026

How Kith apparel fits

Kith's help page describes a modern, streetwear inspired fit that ranges from standard to oversized by item. It points every buyer to the Size & Fit tab on the product page.

Those charts are measured flat, in inches and centimetres. Kith also suggests checking the model's height and size where the page gives them.

The fit line on a product page carries more than it seems. The LAX Tee reads "Fit: Standard," yet the same page calls it a slightly oversized silhouette, cut in 230 GSM cotton jersey.

That page adds a hem that falls at the natural waist. A tee cut to the waist is short by design, which matches the complaints below.

The torso question

The loudest fit complaint this season is length, not width. One buyer said an XL tee "feels short torso wise, like a whole inch shorter according to what I measured."

The same buyer said a reversible jacket in L was good "in most dimensions" but short in the torso. Another post said a recent capsule "seems a bit smaller than usual."

The fix is to measure. Lay a tee you like flat, measure its body length, and compare it with the length on the Size & Fit tab before you choose.

Each step on Kith's tops chart adds 2 to the US number. Sizing up for length buys width too, so decide which matters more.

How Kith sneakers size

Kith lists footwear in US men's sizing unless the page says otherwise. Products titled WMNS are in women's sizing.

Kith puts the gap at about 1.5 sizes, so a women's 7 is a men's 5.5. It adds that conversions vary by brand, and sends buyers to each brand's own chart.

That matters for collaborations, because Kith's chart changes with the partner. A US men's 9 is EU 42.5 on its ASICS and New Balance tables, but EU 42.7 on adidas.

One size up, the gap widens. A US men's 9.5 is EU 43.5 on the ASICS table and EU 43 on New Balance.

Kith's own chart says Converse typically runs large, by 0.5 of a size. For any other collab, size by the partner brand's chart, not by the Kith name on the box.

Why sizes vanish

Kith says its products are first come, first served, and that most will not be restocked. Some product pages offer restock alerts.

There is a second limit for buyers outside the United States. Kith says contractual agreements stop it filling international orders for ASICS, Converse, Jordan, Nike, New Balance, Timberland and Vans.

That pushes many collab buyers to resale. Kith also says it can only verify items bought from its own sites, stores or app.

What Kith costs on one shelf

On 2 October 2026 Utopia, on Cumberland Street in Toronto, held 51 Kith label pieces at $100 to $450. Tees led with 29 listings, and 42 of the 51 were down to a last unit.

L was the deepest size, with 18 listings, then M with 10, S with 7, and XS and XL with 5 each. Our Kith shelf lists them live.

The graphic tees sit at $200 to $250, and a Kith Toronto Classic Logo Tee in XS asked $150. A Batman long sleeve Malik jersey topped the apparel at $450.

The same store held 23 Kith collab sneakers from ASICS, New Balance, adidas and Salomon, at $250 to $900. Sizes ran from 4.5 to 12, all in US men's.

An ASICS Gel 1130 in Cream Scarab asked $400 in sizes 11 and 12, and an adidas Samba in denim asked $450 in 8.5. For Kith's own Toronto store, read our Kith in Toronto note.

Common questions

Do Kith collab sneakers run true to size or half a size down?

Kith does not publish one rule for its collaborations. Size by the partner brand's chart, which Kith's own size tables reproduce brand by brand, and note that Kith puts Converse at 0.5 of a size large.

Does Kith clothing run short in the torso?

Some pieces do by design. The LAX Tee's page says its hem falls at the natural waist, and buyers this season reported tees and a reversible jacket feeling short in the body.

If I'm an L in Kith shirts, should I size up in a Kith jacket?

Compare body length and chest on the jacket's Size & Fit tab with a Kith shirt you own. One buyer found an L reversible jacket fine in most dimensions but short in the torso.

Will Kith restock my size?

Not in most cases. Kith says most products will not be restocked, though some pages offer alerts, so a sold out size means resale or a restock alert.
