Buying Geedup online without trying it on first is where most people make their first mistake. Not because the sizing is complicated it isn’t but because Geedup pieces are cut with a specific intention that isn’t always obvious from a standard size chart. Buy the wrong size and the piece doesn’t look the way it’s supposed to. Buy the right size with the right understanding and everything clicks into place immediately.
This guide covers sizing across every category in the Geedup range hoodies, sweatshirts, track pants, t-shirts, jackets and accessories. Read it before you buy and you’ll get it right the first time.
Geedup clothing is designed with a streetwear fit philosophy rather than a standard athletic or fashion fit approach. Understanding this distinction upfront saves a lot of confusion.
Standard sizing, the kind you find on a size chart from a basic clothing brand, assumes you want the garment to fit close to your body with minimal excess fabric. A medium is designed to fit a medium-sized person without much extra room.
Streetwear sizing works differently. The intention is a relaxed, slightly oversized silhouette where extra room in the body and length is part of the design rather than a fit problem. A medium in Geedup is cut to give a medium-sized person a deliberate oversized feel. The drop shoulder, the extended body length and the extra width through the chest are not sizing errors, they are design decisions.
This means most buyers purchase their standard size and get the oversized fit the brand intends. Buyers who want a more fitted result size down one. Buyers who want an even more exaggerated oversized look size up one. All three approaches are valid; they just produce different silhouettes.
The/ is the piece most people buy first and the piece where getting the size right matters most because the hoodie is the centrepiece of most Geedup outfits.
True to size gives you the intended look. The shoulder seam sits slightly dropped past the natural shoulder point. The body has extra width through the chest and torso. The length extends below the waistband of your pants. This is the relaxed, deliberate streetwear silhouette the hoodie is designed for and it’s the size most buyers should start with.
One size down gives you a more fitted result. The shoulder seam sits closer to the natural shoulder point. The body width is reduced enough that the piece reads as fitted rather than oversized without being tight or restrictive. This works well for buyers who prefer a cleaner silhouette or who find that true to size creates more volume than they want.
One size up gives you an exaggerated oversized look. The shoulder drops significantly, the body is very wide and the length is extended further. This is a deliberate styling choice that works within a specific aesthetic, very relaxed, very streetwear but it requires confidence to carry and limits the range of combinations that work underneath or over the piece.
If you have a lean or slim build, true to size gives you the oversized look without the piece overwhelming your frame. Sizing down gives a more proportional fitted result if oversized isn’t what you’re after.
If you have an average build, true to size gives you the standard Geedup oversized fit. This is the most common purchase and the most commonly recommended starting point.
If you have a larger build, true to size still works for the oversized fit. The proportions of the piece accommodate larger frames well because the cut was designed with the oversized intention rather than being an athletic or slim-cut piece that has been simply sized up.
The geed up sweatshirt and crewneck range follows the same sizing philosophy as the hoodie but with one important distinction the crewneck silhouette reads slightly more structured than the hoodie regardless of which size you choose.
The absence of the hood changes the proportions of the piece in a way that makes the crewneck feel slightly less oversized at the same size as a hoodie. This is not a sizing inconsistency, it’s a natural result of the different silhouette. A true to size geedup crewneck will feel slightly less voluminous than a true to size geedup hoodie even though both are cut to the same measurements.
For buyers who want the crewneck to have the same visual weight as their hoodie, sizing up one on the crewneck can achieve this. For buyers who prefer the slightly cleaner, more structured feel that the crewneck naturally delivers, true to size is the right call.
The sleeve length on geedup sweatshirts and crewnecks runs slightly longer than standard this is intentional and contributes to the relaxed look. If you find the sleeves are covering your hands more than you’d like, sizing down one addresses this while maintaining most of the intended fit through the body.
Geedup track pants sizing requires a slightly different approach to the tops because the construction of the pant specifically the taper through the lower leg, means different size choices produce noticeably different silhouettes in the lower half as well as the upper.
True to size gives you a relaxed fit through the seat and thigh with the intended taper from knee to ankle. The waistband sits at the natural waist comfortably with room to adjust. The ankle opening falls cleanly over a sneaker without bunching. This is the correct starting point for most buyers.
One size down gives a more fitted result throughout slightly less room through the seat and thigh and a cleaner, narrower ankle opening. This works well for buyers with a leaner build who find true to size has more room in the seat than they want, or for buyers who prefer the track pants to read as more fitted than relaxed.
One size up adds more room through the seat and thigh without significantly changing the ankle taper. This can work for buyers between sizes who want comfort prioritised over silhouette precision, but the extra room in the seat can make the pants look slightly shapeless from behind something to consider before making this choice.
The waistband consideration: Geedup track pants have an adjustable drawstring waistband that accommodates a reasonable range of waist sizes within each size. If you’re between sizes and the waist is the primary concern, the drawstring adjustment will handle the difference without requiring you to size up or down for that reason alone.
The geedup t-shirt range comes in two primary fit directions oversized and regular and the sizing approach differs between them.
Oversized fit t-shirts: These are designed with the same streetwear philosophy as the hoodies and sweatshirts. True to size gives the intended relaxed look. Sizing down gives a more fitted version of the oversized cut. Sizing up creates an exaggerated oversized result that can work as a styling choice but limits combination options.
Regular fit t-shirts: These sit closer to standard sizing expectations. True to size gives a conventional fit that works in a broader range of contexts. These pieces are the most versatile in the t-shirt range for buyers who dress across different aesthetics rather than exclusively in streetwear.
The fabric weight on geed up t-shirts means they hold their shape and size through washing more consistently than lighter alternatives. A true to size purchase stays true to size after repeated washing if cared for correctly cold wash, inside out, air dry.
Jacket sizing requires thinking about what you’re wearing underneath because a jacket that fits well over a t-shirt may feel tight over a heavyweight hoodie.
For wearing primarily over t-shirts and lightweight pieces: True to size gives a clean, fitted outer silhouette that looks sharp without appearing too large when worn without heavy layers beneath.
For wearing over hoodies and sweatshirts: True to size still works in most cases because Geedup jackets are designed with enough room to accommodate a hoodie underneath without pulling or restricting. Buyers who run large through the shoulders or chest may find sizing up one gives more comfortable layering room.
The puffer jacket specifically: The reversible duck down puffer is designed to sit closer to the body than a standard puffer to avoid the bulk that makes cheaper puffers look shapeless. This means the sizing is slightly more precise than on other jacket styles. True to size is particularly important here because the piece is designed to work correctly at the intended size rather than accommodating significant variation.
Geedup caps use an adjustable strap at the back that accommodates most head sizes within a standard one-size-fits-most range. The structured six-panel construction maintains its shape across different head sizes without the cap looking too large or sitting too high.
The geedup balaclava uses a stretch construction that accommodates most head sizes comfortably. The fit is designed to be snug rather than loose enough to stay in position during wearing without being so tight it becomes uncomfortable over extended periods. One size fits most applies here with confidence.
Geedup slides follow standard Australian sizing. True to size is the correct approach: slides are not a piece where sizing up or down for fit preference makes sense in the way clothing sizing does.
If you’re between sizes or have never bought Geedup before, taking your own measurements before purchasing removes the guesswork.
Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your chest with the tape held level. This is the most important measurement for hoodie and sweatshirt sizing.
Waist: Measure around your natural waist where you’d want the waistband of track pants to sit. This guides track pant sizing alongside the hip measurement.
Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat. For track pants this matters as much as the waist because the relaxed fit through the seat is where the comfort of the piece lives.
Height: Geedup pieces are cut for standard Australian heights. Very tall buyers may find the body length and sleeve length on true to size pieces falls slightly short, sizing up one on hoodies and sweatshirts adds length alongside width, which can work for taller buyers who want to maintain the proportional look.
Compare your measurements to Geedup’s official size chart on the website before purchasing. The chart uses chest measurements for tops and waist measurements for bottoms as the primary guides.
Buying based on how other brands fit you: Geedup’s oversized cut means a medium here is not the same as a medium from a brand using standard sizing. Your usual size from an athletic brand or a basic clothing brand will likely feel more fitted in Geedup than the brand intends. Start with true to size and adjust from there rather than automatically sizing up to compensate.
Sizing up because you want it more oversized: One size up can work but two sizes up produces a look that is very difficult to style and that makes the piece look like it belongs to someone else rather than being an intentional sizing choice. If you want oversized, true to size usually delivers it. One up is the maximum adjustment that produces a deliberate result.
Ignoring the fabric weight when considering shrinkage: Geedup’s heavyweight cotton fleece is more resistant to shrinkage than lighter fabrics because the fibres have more structural integrity. If you’re tempted to size down specifically to account for expected shrinkage, resist this. Buy the size that fits correctly and wash properly the fabric will hold its size.
Buying based on a single measurement: Chest measurement matters for tops. Waist measurement matters for bottoms. But height, build and personal fit preference all factor into which size actually works for you. Use measurements as a guide rather than an absolute rule.
The easiest solution is to know your size before you buy which is why this guide exists. But if you’ve already purchased and the size isn’t right, a few options exist.
For pieces bought directly through the official Geedup website, check the returns and exchange policy at the time of purchase. Policies vary and understanding what’s available before you buy is part of buying correctly.
For pieces bought through authorised retailers like PUSHAS or Sole Provider Australia, check each retailer’s individual policy as these vary from the brand’s own policy.
For pieces that are too large, styling with more fitted bottom pieces can compensate for excess volume up top without requiring an exchange. A very oversized hoodie over slim track pants creates a deliberate proportional contrast that can work as a look even if the hoodie is slightly larger than intended.
For pieces that are too small, there is less flexibility; a piece that’s genuinely too small to be comfortable can’t be styled around. Getting sizing right before purchasing is always the better outcome than trying to make a wrong size work.
For the hoodie, true to size gives the intended oversized streetwear fit while one size down gives a more fitted result.
For the crewneck sweatshirt, true to size gives a slightly more structured feel than the hoodie at the same size while one size up matches the volume of a true to size hoodie.
For track pants, true to size gives the relaxed seat and thigh with a clean tapered ankle while one size down gives a more fitted result throughout.
For t-shirts in oversized fit, true to size gives the intended relaxed silhouette while one size down gives a fitted version of the oversized cut.
For t-shirts in regular fit, true to size gives a conventional fit across the board.
For jackets, true to size accommodates layering underneath while one size down gives a cleaner outer silhouette when worn primarily over lighter pieces.
For accessories including hats and balaclavas, one size fits most applies across the range.
It runs intentionally oversized rather than accidentally large. The brand designs its pieces with a relaxed, streetwear-appropriate silhouette in mind. True to size gives you that silhouette as intended. If you want something closer to your body, size down one.
Start with true size. Size down if you want a more fitted result. Size up only if you specifically want an exaggerated oversized look and understand that this limits your styling options.
With proper care cold wash, inside out, air dry the heavy cotton fleece holds its size well. Avoid machine drying on heat which is the primary cause of shrinkage in any cotton blend garment.
Generally yes the brand uses consistent sizing standards across the range. The crewneck will feel slightly less voluminous than the hoodie at the same size due to the silhouette difference but the actual measurements are consistent.
Most buyers purchase true to size and get the intended relaxed fit. Buyers who prefer fitted clothing consistently size down one. Both are common approaches within the Geedup community.
Exchange and return policies vary depending on where you purchased. Check the policy of the specific retailer or the official website at the time of purchase rather than assuming a standard policy applies.
Getting your Geedup size right the first time comes down to one decision: do you want the brand’s intended oversized fit or a more fitted result? True to size delivers the first. One size down delivers the second. Everything else in this guide provides the context to make that decision confidently across every piece in the range.
Buy with the silhouette you want in mind, care for the pieces properly and the sizing question becomes something you only need to answer once.
