In a change bound to rock the fashion world, Stony Brook University’s flagship bookstore Shop Red West has announced “Extra Medium” apparel in their mission to achieve inclusivity in their clothing sizes. Transfer student Brenden Payne, who is in his junior year at Stony Brook, has reflected on the update to his fashion wardrobe, saying, “Yeah, these extra-medium clothes fit well. Like, really well.”
We sent the bookstore an email inquiry asking, “Is extra medium larger or smaller than the typical medium sizes?” A spokesperson replied “More or less.”
Shop Red West’s new merchandise size offering was informed by a student survey where 69% of students had replied that the current medium styles were “not medium enough.” Hence, the extra medium option. The extra-medium apparel line will include hoodies, crewneck sweatshirts, t-shirts, pajama pants, and socks.
To celebrate the launch of this new clothing line, Shop Red West will be giving out vouchers for West Side Dining’s new gluten-free napkins with every purchase of extra-medium apparel amounting to $25 or more. Shop Red is expected to announce their “Small Large” and “Large Small” sizes this upcoming semester.
