Men's Plus Size Shirts
Men's plus size shirts for choosing larger sizes with more care than a label alone. Start with garment measurements across the chest and stomach, then check shoulders, sleeves and body length.

The size needs to work across the whole shirt.
Choose a plus size shirt by width and proportions together. The same size label can represent different measurements, so start with a shirt that already works for you.
Chest and stomach
Compare width at the right height. Straight and shaped cuts can share a chest measurement but leave different room further down.
Shoulders and sleeves
Check shoulder width, upper-arm room and sleeve length. Going up a size can change all of these, not just room around your stomach.
Body length
Assess the hem standing and sitting. Extra width is not the same as extra length; check both before choosing.
How do I compare sizes such as 3XL and 4XL?
Compare garment measurements taken using the same method, rather than letters alone. Lay your own shirt flat and buttoned without stretching it. If it is 66 cm wide and another design is 70 cm, that adds 4 cm of flat width, approximately 8 cm around the body. The example explains the difference, not which size you need.
Avoid pulling between the buttons
Check the fit when sitting down and reaching forward. Pulling between buttons shows where the fabric is under tension. Compare the width at that point; a larger chest measurement will not always help if the shirt narrows sharply towards the stomach.
Plus size and oversized mean different things
Plus size refers to larger sizes, while oversized describes a deliberately roomy cut. A larger shirt can still fit close to the body. If you will wear it open over a T-shirt, allow room for the layer through the body and sleeves. Check the sizes and measurements listed for each design.
Choose sleeves and style separately
Once the size works, choose for how you will use the shirt. Short-sleeved shirts leave your forearms uncovered; long-sleeved shirts allow sleeve adjustments. Choose pattern, colour and fabric after that. For a wider comparison, explore men's shirts.
