This thermal is substantial and heavy. It’s very form fitting and will definitely keep you warm. I love also that the sleeves have a strong cuff which helps keep the sleeves from losing its shape over time.
Store owner replied:
Thanks so much for your review! We're glad you love the warmth, substantial feel and sturdy cuffs. Really appreciate you sharing your sizing experience!
It's a great waffle knit shirt, but the xl was a little bit too big. I'm sure that a couple of washes will fix that though.
Store owner replied:
Thanks for the feedback! Glad you’re enjoying the waffle knit, and we appreciate you sharing the fit details.
Probably my first miss from Bronson. The arms and length are quite long. The cuffs I literally have to fold back on themselves completely to get them where I want them. And the body is both long and doesn't have a substantial hem at the bottom, which means you have to tuck it. Which is fine! That's not just what I was expecting. It also wrinkles surprisingly easily and can look a little sloppy when it does, so be ready to steam/iron.
That said, this is still Bronson. The fabric is substantial and can sub for a sweatshirt or sweater in cool weather. The apricot color gives it a nice vintage look. And it's extremely well put together and seems like it will last a long time.
Store owner replied:
Thanks for the detailed feedback. We really appreciate you sharing your experience with the length, cuffs, and fabric. We’ll pass this on to our product team for review and future improvements. Glad you still enjoyed the quality, weight, and vintage look.
Very nice shirt but much longer than expected. Both in the sleeves and overall length. Will work tucked in but not untucked. Recommended going down a size - I don’t think the shirt is slim fit or true to size.
Store owner replied:
Thanks for the detailed feedback! We appreciate you sharing your experience with the fit and length, and we’ll pass it along to our product team for review.
Great quick shipment and amazing service + thick item of good quality. Very happy. Fit is true to size

High quality for really great value! I’m 184 cm, 73 kg, and ordered a 42. It was too big, so I exchanged it for a 40. Great customer service!

Just received the grey one. Super legit heavyweight — no joke! So stoked on it, very timeless.
Store owner replied:
We are so delighted to hear that you are stoked on it! It truly means a lot to us!
I read a review about how these were a looser fit, so I grabbed a size 40 (which lined up better with my usual measurements) instead of my regular 42 size. This was a good decision. The fit is fantastic and the quality is incredible.
Raschel weave is so different than a regular waffle weave and feels great. I have some thermals from a heritage American company, which are good, but these are significantly better (and for half the price).
Store owner replied:
Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear the size 40 was the right call and that you’re enjoying the unique feel of the Raschel weave. Your kind words on the quality truly mean a lot to us—they’re incredibly meaningful to our team. We really appreciate your support.
Never got delivered and I contacted Bronson 100 times

Excellent quality weave, thick and luxurious. Stylish and warm, this waffle knit sweater will be perfect for the winter.
Store owner replied:
Thank you for the thoughtful review! We’re glad you appreciate the substantial knit, quality, and warmth of the shirt. It means a great deal to us to know it will be a great addition to your winter wardrobe. We truly appreciate your support!
I bought these in size 42 and they are huge. I have bought other Bronson shirts in size 42 but these are way bigger. I will have to sell them as they are way too big. They are like an oversized sweatshirt which is not what I was expecting. A bit disappointed.
Store owner replied:
We’re sorry that the fit did not meet your expectations. We truly appreciate your valuable feedback and will work to improve our size recommendations to provide a better experience next time. Thank you for helping us improve.
Great quality and fit. Amazing value for money and would buy again.
