The Gali Jacket is one size — genuinely one size fits all, not a marketing shorthand for "roomy." It's woven and cut as a single garment, full stop. The Gwyn Jacket works differently: it comes in three size bands (XS/S, S/M, M/L), and it's cut true to size rather than oversized. If you've been sitting on the product page trying to work out which one applies to you, here's the direct answer for both.

Why the Gali Is One Size

The Gali is handwoven by the Lorek Weavers on traditional pedal looms, in medium-weight cotton yarn that's organically cultivated and unbleached. The fit comes from the cut, not from a size range: an extended shoulder line, a tailored suit-jacket-inspired structure, and a straight button-front closure. That structure is what does the work of fitting different frames — the shoulder sits with built-in room rather than being tailored close, so the same garment holds its shape whether it's sitting on a narrower or broader frame.

What "One Size" Feels Like on the Body

Because the Gali is designed around structure rather than close tailoring, it reads as a considered oversized shape by design — that's the point of the extended shoulder line and tailored sleeve, not a compromise. If you prefer a closer, more fitted jacket silhouette, this isn't that piece; if you like a jacket with movement and drape, this is exactly the cut it's built for.

The Gwyn Runs Three Ways, True to Size

The Gwyn Blazer is a different story. It's a square-cut silhouette with the same extended shoulder line and exaggerated collar as the Gali, but it's offered in three bands — XS/S, S/M, M/L — and fits true to size. Our model Anna is 175cm/5'7" and wears the XS/S. If you know your usual size, that's the band to pick; there's no need to size up for extra room the way you might with an oversized piece.

 

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is the Gali Jacket really one size fits all?

A: Yes. It's made in a single size (OS) with no other variants. The fit relies on its structure — an extended shoulder line and tailored sleeve — rather than a range of cut sizes, so the same garment is designed to sit well across a range of frames.

Is the Gwyn Jacket oversized like the Gali?

No. The Gwyn is cut true to size across three bands (XS/S, S/M, M/L), so it fits closer to how your usual size normally fits you, not with the deliberate extra room the Gali is built with.

How do I know which Gwyn size band to choose?

Pick the band that matches your usual size. Our model wears XS/S at 175cm/5'7" and it fits true to size on her — the square-cut shoulder is structured, but the body of the jacket isn't oversized, so sizing up isn't necessary.

If you'd like to see how the drape sits before you decide, the product photos show both jackets on the model from a few angles — and we're always happy to answer a specific fit question before you order, rather than have you guess.
