Men's Full Size Collared Neck Long Sleeve Shirt — Measuring, Materials, Model, Care & Style Tips

How to measure

To choose the best size and confirm the fit, measure both your body and a shirt you already own. Use a soft fabric tape measure and keep it parallel to the floor.

Body measurements (how to measure yourself)

1. Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your chest and shoulder blades, under the arms. Keep the tape snug but not tight. Record this as your chest circumference.
2. Waist: Measure around your natural waistline (where you normally wear pants), keeping the tape level and relaxed.
3. Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips/seat if you wear the shirt untucked and want to check hem fit.
4. Neck: Measure around the base of your neck where the collar sits. Leave a finger’s width for comfort if you plan to wear a tie.
5. Sleeve length: With your arm relaxed at your side, measure from the center back of the neck, across the shoulder, and down to the wrist bone. (Some size charts use shoulder-seam-to-wrist instead — check the listing.)

Garment measurements (how to measure a shirt laid flat)

1. Chest (flat): Lay the shirt buttoned and flat. Measure straight across from one armpit seam to the other, about 1" (2–3 cm) below the armhole; multiply that number by 2 to get the garment chest circumference.
2. Shoulder: Measure across the back from shoulder seam to shoulder seam.
3. Body length (HPS): Measure from the high point of the shoulder (where the collar meets the shoulder) down to the bottom hem.
4. Sleeve: Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff, or from center back neck to cuff if matching a size chart that uses CBN (center back neck).
5. Collar: Measure the inside circumference of the collar band or the collar band width if indicated in the chart.

Quick tips: Compare any garment measurements to a shirt you own that fits well. If you plan to layer or prefer a looser fit, add 1–3 inches (2.5–7.5 cm) to the chest measurement. 1 inch = 2.54 cm.

Materials & construction

Shirts of this style are commonly made from a range of woven fabrics and blends. The exact material and construction used for this listing will be shown on the product label or specifications, but here are common options and what they mean for wear and care:

• 100% Cotton (poplin, broadcloth, oxford) — breathable, soft, natural feel. May shrink slightly if not pre-shrunk; irons to a crisp finish.
• Cotton–Polyester blends (e.g., 60/40) — more wrinkle resistant, durable, fewer shrinkage issues, retains color better.
• Cotton–Elastane blends (e.g., 97/3 or 95/5) — adds light stretch for comfort and easier movement while keeping the shirt shape.
• Flannel (brushed cotton) — warm, soft, ideal for cooler weather; tends to be heavier and cozier.
• Rayon/Modal — drapey, soft and smooth; can feel more luxurious but may require gentler care.
• Performance fabrics (polyester blends with moisture-wicking) — quick-drying and low-maintenance; avoid fabric softener to preserve performance.

Construction features to look for: reinforced collar and cuffs, double-stitched seams, neatly finished plackets and hem, and well-aligned button spacing. Check the product description for the exact fiber content and any special finishes (pre-shrunk, mercerized cotton, anti-wrinkle, etc.).

Model information

If model measurements are not provided in the listing, use the guidelines above. For reference, a typical example used in product imagery might read:

• Model example: Height ~6'1" (185 cm), chest ~39–40" (99–102 cm), wearing size XL — shown in a regular/relaxed fit.

Because photographic fits vary by cut, fabric and styling, always compare the model’s given size to the garment measurements or a reference shirt you already own. If you have broad shoulders or prefer extra room across the chest and upper arm, consider sizing up.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

Follow fabric-specific instructions on the garment label first. The recommendations below cover most woven long-sleeve collared shirts:

• Machine wash cold or warm on a gentle cycle with like colors. Use a mild detergent.
• Turn the shirt inside out before washing to protect color and any prints or trims.
• Avoid bleach unless the care label explicitly allows it. Do not use chlorine on colored garments.
• For shirts with stretch fibers or performance finishes, skip fabric softener (it can reduce moisture-wicking performance).
• Tumble dry on low or line dry. Remove from the dryer promptly to reduce wrinkles. High heat can cause shrinkage or damage fibers.
• Iron on the recommended setting for the fabric. Cotton can usually be ironed with steam; synthetics and blends prefer a lower setting — iron inside out if the shirt has prints.
• For stubborn stains, pre-treat gently with a stain remover and test on an inconspicuous area first.
• Store on a wide hanger to preserve shoulder shape; button the top button or use a collar insert if you want to keep the collar crisp.
• For delicate or structured shirts, consider professional dry cleaning if recommended on the label.

Pro tip: Wash dark colors inside out in cold water and hang to dry in shade to reduce fading. For cotton garments, a short cold wash and hang-dry will minimize shrinkage and maintain color longer.

Style tips

Designed as a full-size collared long-sleeve shirt, this piece can work from casual to smart-casual depending on fabric and finish. Here are easy ways to style it:

• Everyday casual: Wear untucked over a plain tee with jeans or chinos. Roll the sleeves to just below the elbow for a relaxed look.
• Smart casual: Tuck into tailored chinos, add a leather belt and loafers. Layer with an unstructured blazer for meetings or dinners.
• Business casual: Tuck into dress trousers, add a slim belt and derby shoes. Choose a smoother fabric (poplin, broadcloth) and a neutral color for a cleaner look.
• Layering: Use the shirt as an overshirt (open over a tee) in medium-weight fabrics, or as a base layer under sweaters and jackets in cooler weather.
• Color & pattern advice: For a slimming appearance, prefer darker solid colors or small vertical patterns. Avoid very large horizontal stripes. Pocket placement and seam lines should sit comfortably across the chest — if they pull, size up.
• Plus-size fit tips: Choose a shirt with a bit of structure in the shoulders but enough room in the chest and upper arm. Vertical details (vertical stripes, long plackets) and monochrome outfits can create a streamlined silhouette.
• Accessorizing: Add a textured belt, a casual watch, or a lightweight scarf for visual interest. Keep proportions balanced: if the shirt is roomy, choose slimmer pants to avoid extra bulk.

Final tip: Try the shirt on with the pants and shoes you plan to wear. Seeing the complete outfit helps decide if you need a different size or a different cut for the look you want.
