FIND YOUR BEST FIT
Not sure which size to choose? Start with something you already love.
1. Grab your favorite.
Choose a T-shirt, crewneck, or hoodie you already own that fits the way you like.
2. Lay it flat and measure.
Measure the width straight across the chest just below the armholes. Then measure the length from the highest point of the shoulder to the bottom hem.
3. Compare your measurements.
Find the closest measurements in the appropriate size chart above. If you're between sizes, consider whether you prefer a closer or roomier fit before choosing.
Quick Tip: Don't rely only on the size printed inside your favorite shirt. A Large from one brand can fit differently from a Large from another. Comparing the actual garment measurements gives you a better starting point.
