Men's Plus Size Collared Neck Short Sleeve Shirt

How to measure

Two quick ways to measure — take body measurements to choose a size, or measure a similar shirt you already own to compare garment dimensions.

Body measurements (to choose the right size)

1. Wear a thin layer (t‑shirt or undershirt) and stand relaxed with arms at your sides.
2. Chest: Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, across your shoulder blades and under your arms. Keep the tape level and snug but not tight. Record the circumference.
3. Neck: Measure around the base of your neck where the collar sits.
4. Waist: Measure around your natural waist (narrowest point). For shirts that fall below the waist also measure hips at the fullest point.
5. If you are between sizes, choose the larger size for comfort. Allow 2–4 in (5–10 cm) of ease around the chest for everyday comfort; 4–6 in (10–15 cm) for a relaxed fit.

Garment (lay‑flat) measurements — how to measure a shirt you already own

1. Button the shirt and lay it flat on a firm surface, smoothing out wrinkles.
2. Chest (armpit‑to‑armpit): Measure straight across the front 1 in (2.5 cm) below the armholes; multiply that number by 2 to get circumference.
3. Shoulder: Measure straight across the back from shoulder seam to shoulder seam (or from bone to bone if no seam).
4. Sleeve: For short sleeves measure from the shoulder seam to the sleeve hem. For full sleeve length, measure from the center back of the neck across the shoulder to the cuff.
5. Length: Measure from the high point of shoulder (base of collar) straight down to the bottom hem at center back.
6. Compare these garment measurements to the product's listed garment measurements when available — that gives the most accurate fit.

Tip: 1 in = 2.54 cm. When checking fit, always compare your body measurements to the garment measurements and allow the recommended ease for the look you want.

Materials & fabric information

Exact composition varies by style—always check the product label. Typical fabric options and what they mean:

• 100% Cotton — soft, breathable and comfortable; may shrink slightly on first wash; breathable for warm weather.
• Cotton/Polyester blends (e.g. 60/40) — lower wrinkle and shrinkage, quicker drying, easier care while retaining cotton’s comfort.
• Polyester — durable, colorfast and quick‑drying; less breathable than cotton but very easy to care for.
• Viscose / Modal — smooth drape and soft hand; lightweight and comfortable but may require gentler washing.
• Elastane / Spandex (1–5%) — small percentage adds stretch and recovery for better movement and fit.
• Trim & hardware — buttons typically plastic or shell; reinforced stitching at stress points improves durability.

Note: If a product lists “performance” or “wrinkle‑resistant” in the description, it commonly contains polyester or a polyester blend.

Use this reference to judge how the cut looks on a real body. Individual proportions vary—always check measurements before buying.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

1. Always follow the garment care label first — it overrides general guidance.
2. Turn the shirt inside out before washing to protect color and surface fibers.
3. Machine wash cold or warm on a gentle cycle with similar colors; use a mild detergent and avoid bleach unless the label allows it.
4. For delicate fabrics (viscose/modal) or shirts with lots of stretch, use a gentle or hand wash cycle.
5. Avoid fabric softeners on technical blends (poly/spandex) as they can reduce moisture‑wicking performance.
6. Tumble dry low or, preferably, hang to dry to minimize shrinkage and extend life. Remove promptly from dryer to reduce wrinkles.
7. Iron inside out on medium heat if needed; use low heat on synthetic blends and avoid direct high heat on elastane areas.
8. Spot treat stains promptly; blot (don’t rub) and follow stain‑remover instructions. Test any treatment on an inconspicuous area first.
9. To prevent pilling and abrasion: wash inside out, avoid high‑friction cycles, and periodically remove pills with a fabric shaver.
10. Store on a hanger to keep the collar and shoulders in shape; avoid overcrowding in the closet.

Style tips

• Casual: Wear untucked with straight or slim jeans and sneakers. Rolling the sleeves once creates a relaxed, tailored look.
• Smart‑casual: Tuck into chinos, add a leather belt and loafers or derby shoes. Layer under an unstructured blazer for office‑friendly style.
• Summer: Pair with tailored shorts and canvas sneakers or slip‑ons. Choose lighter colors and breathable fabrics for hot days.
• Layering: Use as an overshirt (open over a plain tee) or as a light top layer under a sweater; pick thinner fabrics to avoid bulk.
• Fit advice: For plus sizes, choose shirts with structure at the shoulders and moderate taper through the waist to create a balanced silhouette. Avoid overly tight or excessively baggy fits.
• Colors & patterns: Solid dark colors or subtle vertical patterns are slimming and versatile. Small, scaled patterns tend to be more flattering than large, busy prints.
• Details: A half‑tuck (front tuck) adds shape while keeping a casual vibe. Keep accessories proportional to your size—wider belts and substantial watches balance the look.

Tip: When in doubt, compare your body measurements to the garment measurements listed on this page and choose the size that gives you the desired amount of ease (2–4 in for everyday, 4+ in for relaxed).
