How to Measure (Easy, We Promise)
- Grab your favorite tee. Pick the one that fits just right, then lay it flat and smooth it out without stretching it.
- Chest: Measure straight across from armpit to armpit, about 1 inch below the armholes.
- Length: Measure from the highest point of the shoulder, right next to the collar, straight down to the bottom hem.
- Compare: Match your numbers to the chart below. Chest is measured flat, which is about half of the all-the-way-around number.
Tip: Stuck between two sizes? Size up for a roomier fit.
| Size | Chest width (in) | Body length (in) | Sleeve (from center back) (in) |
