Men's Letter Quarter Zip Short Sleeve T-Shirt | Black / S 100400731855030

How to measure this product

Use these steps to measure the garment itself (recommended) or your body so you can pick the best size. Always measure on a flat, even surface with a soft tape measure. Record in inches or cm (1 in = 2.54 cm).

Measuring the garment (lay flat)

• Chest (pit-to-pit): Lay the tee flat and smooth but don’t stretch. Measure straight across the front about 1 cm (½") below the armholes. Multiply that number by 2 for full chest circumference.
• Shoulder width: Measure across the back from seam to seam where the sleeves meet the shoulder.
• Body length: Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (where shoulder seam meets the collar) straight down to the bottom hem.
• Sleeve length: For short sleeves, measure from the shoulder seam to the sleeve hem.
• Hem width: Measure straight across the bottom hem and multiply by 2 for the circumference.
• Neck / collar opening: Measure the collar opening across when laid flat and multiply by 2 (useful for quarter-zip fit).
• Zip length: Measure the zipper from top stop to bottom stop along the closed zipper if you need exact zipper information.

Measuring your body (to choose a size)

• Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, under the arms, with the tape parallel to the floor.
• Shoulders: Measure from shoulder tip to shoulder tip across the back.
• Torso length: Measure from the top of your shoulder (near base of neck) down to where you want the hem to sit.

Fit tip: compare your body measurements to the garment measurements. For a relaxed fit add 1–3" (2.5–8 cm) ease; for a slim fit choose closer to your true measurements.

Materials

Check the garment label for the exact composition. Common materials used for a quarter-zip short sleeve tee and what they mean for feel and care:

• 100% Cotton — Soft, breathable and comfortable. Natural fiber that may shrink slightly on first wash; washes well cold and dries best on low heat or line dry.
• Cotton / Polyester blends (e.g., 60/40, 80/20) — Improved durability, reduced shrinkage and quicker drying; holds color better than pure cotton.
• Cotton / Elastane (e.g., 95/5) — Adds stretch and shape retention for a closer fit and increased comfort.
• Modal / Viscose blends — Very soft with a smooth drape; resist wrinkling but may require gentle care to avoid damage at high heat.
• Polyester / Recycled polyester — Lightweight, quick-drying and durable; often used for performance or travel-friendly tees.
• Knit type — Jersey knit = smooth, soft, casual; pique knit = slightly textured with more structure.

Letter details (printing, embroidery or applique): embroidery and sewn appliques are more durable—wash inside out and avoid high heat. Heat-applied letters require gentler treatment (cold wash, low heat or hang dry).

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

Follow the garment care label first. Below are general best practices for quarter-zip short sleeve tees and pieces with letter details:

• Before washing: Zip the zipper closed to protect teeth and prevent snags. Turn the shirt inside out to protect prints and letters.
• Machine wash: Cold water, gentle cycle, mild detergent. Wash like colors together.
• Avoid: Bleach and harsh stain removers that can damage fabric and appliques. Avoid fabric softeners on moisture-wicking blends (they can reduce performance).
• Drying: Air dry or tumble dry low. Remove promptly from dryer to reduce wrinkles and shrinkage. Reshape while damp if necessary.
• Ironing: Iron inside out on low heat; do not iron directly on prints or appliques. Use a pressing cloth if needed.
• Zipper care: Keep zipper clean and free of lint. If sticky, work the slider gently or rub a small amount of paraffin/candle wax or a zipper lubricant on the teeth (test on an inconspicuous area first).
• Stain treatment: Treat spots promptly—dab (don’t rub) with a mild stain remover or diluted detergent, then launder as usual.
• Pilling: Use a fabric shaver or gentle razor to remove pills; do so carefully to avoid fabric damage.
• Storage: Fold tees to avoid stretching at the shoulders; store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve color.

Style tips

• Casual everyday: Pair the quarter-zip tee with slim jeans or chinos and sneakers. Keep the zipper partially open for a relaxed look.
• Smart-casual: Layer under a lightweight blazer or bomber jacket. Tuck into tailored chinos and add leather sneakers or loafers.
• Warm weather: Wear with tailored shorts and canvas sneakers. Choose light, breathable fabrics in complementary colors.
• Layering: Use it as a mid-layer under a denim or utility jacket; the quarter zip adds a neat neckline option without the bulk of a full-zip sweatshirt.
• Color pairing: Neutral letter/tee colors pair well with navy, olive, tan or black bottoms. For contrast, match the letter color to an accessory like a cap or belt.
• Fit advice: For a clean, modern silhouette, aim for shoulders that sit at your natural shoulder line and sleeves that hit mid-bicep for short-sleeve styles.
