How to measure a well fitting shirt

You can send us measurements from your well fitting shirt. We can make the shirts accordingly for you. This will be a good starting point. Please iron the shirt before measuring.

 

Biceps / Sleeve Width

Description

Measure from the bottom of the sleeve, where it meets the body to the top of the sleeve.
Rounded Armhole Description

Place the measuring tape at the top of the armhole seam and follow it along its edge. In the image, the armhole measurement is 10.00". Should be 1.0" to 2.0" bigger than the bicep measurement.

(Note: this is a curved measurement, so please measure carefully.)

Shrinkage

We prewash each shirt length individually, just before cutting it for your shirt. Some fabrics are washed more than once if they have a tendency to shrink further.
The shirt you will receive would be pre-shrunk and will not shrink further significantly. You are thus not required to adjust for shrinkage.
