How to choose a shirt size

You can buy an expensive high-quality shirt, but if it sits poorly, the money will be wasted. Ideal sitting shirt should not be too tight and not too loose.

During the fitting be sure to pay attention to the following details.

the gate

Shirt collar frames face. If he is chosen fails, it will break the whole image. If the collar is too tight, it will squeeze the neck and cause discomfort. Too loose gate (when between the neck and the collar placed four fingers) also looks bad. Ideal - when between the collar and neck freely placed two fingers.

shoulder seam

If the shoulder seam is too high, it means that the shirt you small. If it hangs too low, the shirt is great. Ideally, the shoulder seam should be positioned at the point where the arm connects to the shoulder joint, it provides freedom of movement.

Landing

If the fabric on the chest is strongly stretched, it means that the shirt you small. If the edges tucked shirt hanging on a belt or shirt looks baggy, so it is great to you. Look for a smaller size or a different brand. Ideal shirt should taper towards the middle, repeating the outlines of the figures.

The width of the sleeves

The sleeves should not be too narrow, or they will limit the freedom of movement. Too loose sleeves, the cloth which hangs down - too inconvenient option. Sleeves ideal width adjoin sufficiently close to hand, with free stays no longer 2.5-5 centimeters of tissue.

cuffs

If the seal is very firmly against your wrists, your shirt is small. If the hand passes freely through the buttoned cuffs, a shirt is great. In both cases it is possible to alter the button, but first try to try on a shirt of a different size. If you normally wear a watch, pick the perfect collar for them.

sleeve length

If the hose end over the joint of the wrist, they will short. Try to try on the shirts of other brands. If the hose is partially closed hand, they will have to be shortened. Ideal sleeve covers only the wrist.

The length of the hem

If the shirt barely covers the belt, it is short you. If the hem of his pants and closes, it is long, try a smaller size. Ideally, the hem should end a few centimeters below the belt, then the shirt will not stand out, if you raise your hands.

Just do not forget that no one from the store ready-shirt can not come quite perfect. That she sat exactly on your figure, Will have to include it in the studio.
