Telltales of a poorly fitting shirt:
- Fitting more than two fingers between your neck and the collar indicates that the shirt collar is too big.
- A lot of excessive fabric around the sleeves will make them look puffy, while a lack of it will cause the sleeves fitting too tightly (neither one a good look).
- Try lifting your arms up 45 degrees; if your shirt moves up more than an inch it’s a sign that the shoulder part is too tight .
Telltales of a perfect fitting shirt
- Does the shoulder seam meet the corner of your shoulder bone? Perfect, that means the shoulder part is well-fitted.
- The shirt cuff should end where your palm meets your wrist, about an inch from the wrist bone.
- The body of your shirt should end at the middle of your zipper.
