Two names that currently absolutely dominate European streetwear and dictate modern trends: the London giant Trapstar and the uncompromising brand Corteiz (CRTZ) with its iconic Alcatraz logo. Getting original pieces on an official drop is often a matter of seconds and incredible luck. People buy these pieces instantly, and there's huge demand for them on the secondary market. If you do manage to snag an exclusive piece, it has to fit you perfectly. What's the real sizing of these British giants?
Trapstar Sizing: How do hoodies and tracksuits fit?
The Trapstar brand maintains a classic British "snug" fit, meaning a slightly tighter and more fitted cut. This applies especially to their extremely popular Chenille Decoded tracksuits and puffer jackets, which defined an entire era of the UK drill and rap scene. Similar to other British brands, e.g., in our article about the Represent brand, the preferred style also matters here.
-
Hoodies and Tracksuits: We recommend taking your usual size (True to Size) if you prefer a body-hugging fit, which historically belongs to this brand. However, if you're looking for a modern, looser "baggy" streetwear look, definitely go one size up (Size Up).
-
T-shirts: Most Trapstar t-shirts fit True to Size, but the sleeves tend to be slightly shorter to accentuate the shoulders and arms. Again, for a looser fit across the chest, take one size larger.

Corteiz (CRTZ) Sizing: Hoodies, Pants, and Iconic T-shirts
Corteiz represents pure streetwear rebellion. Hype pieces like the Corteiz No Time 4 Luv Tee White, the massively popular Corteiz Camo collection (camo cargo pants), or even sought-after accessories like Corteiz underwear (which customers across Europe often search for under the term "majtki corteiz"), on the other hand, tend to be slightly looser as a default.
-
Hoodies: The cut is intentionally slightly oversized and very wide in the shoulders from the factory. If you take your classic size (True to Size), you'll get that perfect, looser fit that founder Clint419 himself wears. The correct fit for oversized clothing is key – if you're unsure, also check out our Essentials sizing guide. For a very tight look, you would have to go one size down (Size Down).
-
T-shirts and Cargo pants: Corteiz t-shirts fit mostly true to size, but with heavier material (heavyweight cotton). Corteiz Camo cargo pants are baggy, so if you don't want them falling below your waist, take your standard size or even one size smaller.
