Of course, everything depends on where your fit sits, between tight or loose. If loose, it can probably fit okay. If not, not. Me, I need to upsize the pants a bit, to handle IWB. I also choose "tall" variations of shirts, and often a size larger to accommodate bulges due to the gun. Everyone's different, and even different across the year if you change size/weight a bit. And yes, it does vary a little by gun/holster you carry, due to how much a given combo will add.
