Reigning Champ

Sort of like a Canadian American Giant, I guess?

Reigning Champ has their Freshman and Sophomore pants in Solotex Cotton and their Stadium pants in Solotex Linen both listed as new. Has anyone here purchased them in these materials? I'd like to know more about them, and their site doesn't have any reviews. (I had posted this in QnA, because Reigning Champ didn't have a brands channel, but then realized they should probably have one, so I went ahead and made it).

I cannot speak about the material, but just a word of warning : these pieces, like most of their stuff, are now made in Vietnam, not in Canada like it used to be. (RC has been bought by Aritza in 2021)

Thanks, I wasn't aware. Has there been an appreciable drop in quality, in your experience?

I've only bought a few things the past couple of years and they're all really solid. A hoodie was made in China (only piece I bought in Canada), still great. Sweatpants and a tshirt both labeled made in Canada.

I admit I haven't bought much from RC since Aritzia took over, but what is going on with their sizes? XS used to fit like a glove and now its running at least 2 sizes too big. Not to mention the non Made in Canada garments... Bit of a shame because they really were a solid brand...

They were bought in 2021, and apparently there's been a marked drop in quality.

I bought a couple of other things. Both made in Canada, but I did check beforehand (some were not). What's a current alternative to RC?
