its not about sizing down imho. @nizzel55 tts is a large as I understand. he had a SG indigo over dyed XL (which was measured a Large maybe smaller due to the shrinkage process from factory). I would say he upsized now from his regular L to an XL which might work when you like wearing oversized sweaters. The sweat will shrink thats correct but it will also stretch out again as well depending how much you stress the fabric. I don't know how much it shrank when I washed it but it stretched out to a comfort fit still slim as you see on my pic. I don't know how much it shrinks in tumble dry, maybe @Max Power has an input here.
Have you checked out BiG measurements for it? then you could get a good indication sizewise.
I have a friend who took the medium he is small size like me, he tried to be happy with it and gave it to a another friend in the end because he was not happy with the overall fit. he is still sad not getting a small from the beginning but he is patiently waiting for a small now. Again we both like it on the slimmer in this specific ballpark hoodie.
good luck nizzel with your decision its a great sweat and different people like wearing a sweat differently.
maybe you'll get that extra keeping it between an L and XL with a hot wash and a tumble dry and you could be fine with that XL like some said. sorry not to be of better help

just want to add that the L ballpark will probably fit approx the same as the SG XL you had around chest area @nizzel55
and just measured P2P in my small ballpark hoodie which is actually more or less 51cm (20") so I had about 1.5-2" stretch compared to BiG measurements (keep in mind I washed it, always 30 Celsius full spin) and this is a slim fit on me under armpits
I have a Ballpark Party going on

@davito nice collection! I have the ball park crew neck, the loopwheel crew neck and a couple of the midweight raglan sleeve crew neck, and I think the ball park is the best all around in terms of fit and fabric.
@nizzel55 You could wash and dry it for a little shrinkage but those are pre-washed so not going to shrink a ton. Just depends how you want to wear it. Go for size large if you want slimmer fit and want to layer the sweat under other stuff. Can't really go wrong either way in my opinion.

The fit makes the jacket IMO.. Super sweet pick-up as always @Qinhan!
-
great fit Q!
looks so much better on you, glad it went to a good home!!
-
That looks perfect q!
Anyone interested in my mermaid cpo in size 15? Such an awesome shirt but too different from what I usually wear.
-
Someone needs to scoop this! Seems like a steal of a price.

This is absolutely ridiculous, even with a busted front zip. For smaller guys:
-
I saw that, missing some other details about it. Nice jacket though!
-
Finally bought myself something from RMC. I found this Ball Park Sweat lightly used on the 'bay and needless to say I am impressed. Nice heavy weight and fits nice and slim like I wanted.
-
Do you know what the model number on that is? Interested in the joe McCoy 14 oz ballpark myself!
-
And it fits perfect!

Congrats @Anesthetist
Ben RMC make only one heavy JMC Ballpark fullzip hoodie which is 12oz no. are old MC12126 (i.e the black maxpower has or the grey which i have) and new MC14112. I saw that some of the newer ones dont come with a deadstock talon zipper but not sure about it. Always best you doublecheck on that before buying.
