I was looking to replace a cozy sweatshirt-style onesie that needed to be retired, but as a tall person that is not an easy thing to find, especially in a good quality garment that will stand up to regular wear. Then I came across the Roots Cabin Onesies, and saw that you had both a women's and a men's version. I am female, but I'm tall and have both long legs and a long torso, so typical women's sizing tends to require me to size up by 1-2 sizes in the hopes of finding a comfortable fit. (For reference, I also have a larger bust and matching hips, and am usually a women's XL in tops, and L or XL in bottoms). Add to the the fact that onesie/romper clothing items are often hard to make work when you're tall.
For an item like this, comfort is obviously the top priority. I scoured the sizing charts, looked elsewhere online for testimonials (to no avail, sadly), and ultimately I decided to go with the men's Cabin Onesie in an XL. It is oversized and cozy, and I am in love!! The body and leg length is more than adequate (I'm not completely sure whether I could have gone with a Large instead in terms of inseam and body length, but it's possible?). It's not super heavyweight material, but still super cozy and warm - perfect for jumping into after getting home from work, or to lounge in throughout the day on a lazy, snowy weekend.
I also grabbed the Dockside Long Sleeve Dress in Varsity Green in an XL, and that was instant love as well. It's quite baggy, but not to the point of looking sloppy. I have since picked up the black version in a L, and that's definitely a better fit while still being relaxed overall. If you're unsure, I would say this definitely fits generously, and you may want to size down for a closer fit. The quality is excellent, and I was surprised to find that there was zero shrinkage after the first wash and tumble dry (I almost wish I could shrink the XL a bit, but I'll live).
I honestly don't remember the last time I shopped at Roots (maybe 20+ years ago in my teens, if ever?), but this experience has definitely been a good one and I'm glad I took a chance on both the onesie and dress. Cozy is everything!!
