Ash & Erie Review: Clothes for Shorter Guys (2022 Update)

Quarter Zip Sweater (charcoal, XS)

It’s cut just a bit fuller than the other tops I tried on, probably because this type of sweater is meant to be worn over another shirt (i.e., you wouldn’t wear it on its own).

I’m wearing it here over the OCBD – a timeless layering combo that looks good on pretty much anyone.

Just like the Everyday Shirt and henley, these sleeves are a good length for my arms. Isn’t it nice not having to go the tailor for a change?

The ribbed hem offers a little bit of compression around the waist/hips, but it’s not so much that the sweater will ride up and produce the dreaded muffin top effect.

My only suggestion for Ash & Erie is to work on offering more colors in the future. I’d love to see this sweater in dark green, burgundy, dark brown and cream.

Ash & Erie Quarter Zip Sweatshirt

This cotton/poly quarter zip is a more casual alternative to the standard wool quarter zip.

Quarter Zip Sweatshirt, Burgundy, XS

While the XS size fits me well, I could probably wear a S for more layering room underneath.

I like the burgundy color and hidden zip placket. Also, the shorter cuff height is a nice detail.

This is a cozy sweater best suited for cooler months. The fleece lining would be too hot for mild or warm temps.

Ash & Erie Jeans

Next up, let’s look at another customer favorite: the jeans.

Essential Jean (midtown wash, 29×27) | Notice how the fades are in the right place on my legs? Nice!

Ash & Erie only offers one cut right now, a modern slim fit that should work for most guys.

These jeans have 2% stretch built in, and they’re available with shorter inseams (as short as 25 inches).

The leg is slim but not skinny, and there is a slight taper from the knee down. The leg opening is slim enough to wear with no break but wide enough to fit over the top of my boots.
