  • In this video, I'll explain exactly how a men's t-shirt should fit. We'll look at the following areas: the shoulders, the sleeves (length and width), the torso (chest, stomach and hips) and the overall length of the shirt. I'll use my Sharp Casualwear v-neck and crew neck tees to demonstrate proper fit.
    Big thanks to Sharp Casualwear for sponsoring this video!

    It depends what kind of fit you want. Oversized tee's can look great, they don't all have to be fitted like this to look good. Tucking a t-shirt in and slightly pulling it out all around can look good too.

    I'm 5'11" and I also have trouble finding undershirts and tees that are good value. Two problems: I can't really try them on while shopping as they're packaged in sets; as undershirts, they're prone to staining from deodorant so they don't last long. I almost bought a set of three Polo tees from Dillards today, but at $39 a set, and not being sure they would fit well, I demurred. What do you think?

  • @ThisNamesNowTaken

    Man. Seems like I’m always stuck in the middle having to decide, do i want to go with more room or fitted? I’m around 5’8” to 5’9” so I’ll be barely making the cut with this site you’re mentioning. Lately i gained weight from constant heavy lifting at my (now old) job and gained more weight after leaving that job, 189lbs. My chest is around 43.5cm so I’m stuck thinking, do i want to go large and have some extra room? I like the fitted look so i dont want too much room, but i dont want the medium to fit slightly stretched on my chest area and feeling as well as looking restrictive of movement especially if its a button front shirt. Im on here trying to get answers but so far RUclips isnt very helpful with regards to how to chose the right size full button shirt (not dress shirts) when your body frame is in between sizes.

    Yeah agree. Even here somewhere in southeast asia many of brands here like H&M Topman, P&B have their XS has a perfect length but always too tight and their S has perfect fit on upper torso but too long. My body is just like you not big or skinny and i'm 5'5.5" (167cm) maybe equal to 5'8"-5'9" in USA which consider average or little under average but totally not consider short for southeast asian. So far only uniqlo's Tees S size can fits me well.

    Brock! Check out Son of a Tailor. They make custom made to measure T-shirts, only company I found that does this. I just received my first T and it is awesome! Fits perfectly & only takes about two weeks for delivery. Also I have to disagree with the sleeve width, should slightly hug the arm no loose fabric. Makes the guns look bigger.

      @nathanpickering6742 3 года назад

      @@BrockMcGoff I know this is old but you can also put measurements in yourself and measure your body so it fits exact. They also compensate for shrinking in the wash too so they make the size slightly bigger then what you order so it doesn't shrink too much. So if the size is a little loose pre wash, that's normal and you just have to wash it before you make the final judgment on the fit.

    As someone who loves and will continue to watch your videos I feel I want to speak out when I disagree. Not to offend or be close minded but that my opinion is different. I dont agree with the arm width or side width. The shirt arm width popping off to the sides looks ugly to me and the extra inch or so is doing that. Its completely avoidable in the market to have a shirt arm width that holds to the skin but is not hugging it too hard to both avoid it flaring out with that extra inch and to avoid being too tight. Its makes a very odd shape in the air where it has no purpose or meaning it just looks badly fit and out of place. Most shirt makers ive been too (Express) dont have this issue and have a perfect fit in that area without the flare. and almost the same comment on the shirt side width. Most companies offers shirts that hug but dont hold too tight. The days where most shirts dont fit well no matter the shirt size and person and compression shirts holding too tight are fading away.This is the first time where I honestly dont like the way the shirt works on you in the video. I just feel like it looks very cookie cutter and knowing you that is not the usual. But thats just my two cents. And again Im still a big fan and will like the video anyway because you are still doing what you love for other people and have the best at heart.

      T-shirts have no true fit size.If he thinks it fits right then it does. If he thinks a XL fits well then it does. Dress shirts are the ones we can actually explain how it should fit. T-shirts are universal, the sizing you chose is the style you want to wear. Your sizing for t-shirt is just a style. There is no true size, unlike dress shirts they serve one purpose.

    Why should we listen to this guy about fit, his sleeves are obviously too big and calls it a good fit

      Skin tight ≠ proper fit (despite what current trends would have us believe)

    This did not help me. I was trying to figure out what size my 14 yr old would wear... He's 5'6 and 114 pounds. My son's shoulders look wider than this guy's though

    That t-shirt is way too tight.

    That shirt looks way too big on you. You have 4" extra on your chest, and 2" extra on each bicep.

    Useless video, it doesn't say how to measure the sizes, by wearing people can judge by themselves if it fits them or not 😆
