How to Get Your Tee Size Right First Go

Here is the bit we would rather tell you before you order than after. Every printed shirt we sell is made once you have paid for it. There is no rack of them out the back. That is what lets us do small batch designs instead of guessing what will sell and drowning in leftovers, but it does mean we cannot take a shirt back and swap it for the next size up. It has already been made for you.

So it is worth two minutes to get it right.

Do not guess off the label in your wardrobe

A large from one brand is a medium somewhere else and an extra large somewhere else again. Australian sizing, US sizing and whatever the fast fashion mob are doing this year are all different animals. If you order off the letter alone you are rolling the dice.

The two minute version that actually works

Go and get a shirt out of your wardrobe that fits you the way you like. Not your favourite one that has shrunk, not the one you have been meaning to throw out. The one that fits.

Lay it flat on a bed or a table. Smooth it out so it is not bunched up.

Measure straight across the chest, from one armpit seam to the other. Write that number down.

Now measure from the highest point of the shoulder straight down to the bottom hem. That is your length.

Take those two numbers to the size chart on the product page and pick the size that matches. Not the letter you usually buy. The numbers.

What our tees actually feel like

Our tees are a 180 GSM combed cotton blank, unisex cut, sizes S to 3XL. It is a mid weight shirt. Not the thin see through stuff, not a heavy boxy skater tee. The fit is straight rather than tapered, so if you like something fitted through the body you may want to size down.

The crop tees run S to 2XL and sit shorter through the body, which is the whole point of them, so measure the length on those especially.

Jumpers and the muscle shirts are different blanks again with their own charts, so do not assume your tee size carries across. Check each listing.

If you land between two sizes

Go up. Every time. A shirt that is slightly roomy reads as relaxed. A shirt that is slightly tight reads as a shirt you do not wear. Cotton also has a habit of pulling in a fraction on the first wash even when you do everything right, so the bigger of the two is the safer bet.

If you are buying it as a gift

Same job, just sneakier. Find a shirt they already wear, measure it while they are not looking, order to those numbers. Beats asking and getting told "oh, medium I think" by someone who has not checked a label since 2019.

What happens if something is genuinely wrong

Different story entirely. If the shirt turns up faulty, or it is not what you ordered, email us within 7 days of it landing and we will replace it. That is on us, not you.

What we cannot do is a change of mind or a size swap on a shirt that was printed to your order. Full details are in our refund policy.

Still not sure

Send us a message with your two measurements and we will tell you which size to order. We would much rather answer that email than post you something that does not fit.
