Chest Shirt Size

Need help with finding right dress shirt size?

I have difficulty finding mens dress shirts that fit me well. I have a very thin body around my abdomen and chest. My neck is actually not as thin. I need about a 16 1/2 inch neck, but dress shirts with that dimension are way too big in the body. A 15 1/2 and 16 neck fits my body much better but the neck is too tight to be able to wear a tie. Since dress shirts are sold by neck size, I don't know what to buy. Do I buy the right neck size and I can comfortably wear a tie or a smaller neck size to fit my body better but it suffocates me when I wear a tie?

Buy a shirt that fits your neck size.

Take it to a tailor to have it taken in. It's easier & cheaper to take the shirt in than alter the collar size.

BTW, H & M & www.landsend.com carry slim/tailored fit shirts that may suit your build.

Men’s T - Shirts – Look Like a Man in a T-shirt

T – Shirts that are made for men should be worn to enhance your body size in order for you to look like a large build man and not a boy. With today’s society it is imperative to look your best at all times and not to fall behind in the fashion race. With many different styles of men’ s  t-shirts ranging from baggy to Y and V neck to polo shirts to slim and fitted. It is wise to pick and wear the ones that suit you the most.

When concerned with men’s T- Shirts, I have found that the look that works best is the fitted T-Shirt. The fitted T- Shirt for men is worn by many alpha male type personas. The fitted t shirt is made to enhance your body’s appearance. The fitted T – Shirt is made slightly tighter around the arms in order for your arms to fit the t shirt. By fitting the t shirt it appears that your arms are much bigger then they appear. When compared to normal T-Shirts, the arms are baggy and do not give off the same effect as wearing a fitted T-Shirt.

The same effect can be seen with the chest. There are many alpha male connotations associated with a large chest. The fitted T – Shirt greatly enhances the size of your chest because the material is made much tighter along this region. By having a bigger chest gives off the impression that you are strong, broad and powerful. Many women look for these details in a man, on the grounds that many women want a man to look after then, knowing that they are safe. On V and Y neck T shirts, the chest is enhanced even more because the triangular shape of the cut creates an image of a broader chest. Furthermore these styles of T – Shirts often show chest hair. Many women love men’s chest hair, by showing it off with these fitted t shirts women can get a sneaky look at what’s under the man’s clothing. This therefore gives off strong sexual connotations that the man is a strong rugged alpharistic male.

From this article regarding men’s T-Shirts, it is clear to see that by wearing a fitted T-Shirts many men can give of the impression that they are much more built and physically fit then they actually are. With many different sexual connotations associated with these t- shirts it is hard to think why men wouldn’t choose not to wear them. By making you’re your arms and chest appear bigger I can see no reasons why one should not invest in a fitted T-Shirt.
