Can't beat Russell quality in construction and comfort.  I compared my new large Russell crew with a favorite vintage Russell crew and was satisfied that the size is almost identical. I did notice the recent Russell is cut slightly different in the shoulders allowing more room to move around in. I would say the newer Russell has a fuller cut.  Inch for inch, both crews are almost identical in size.  I highly recommend the Russell brand and would not hesitate to purchase another.  They makes great gifts.
