T-Shirt Fit Guide
How Should a T-Shirt Fit?
The t-shirt is a staple of every wardrobe, but t-shirts are by no means one-size-fits-all. Once relegated solely to wearing beneath clothes (as an undershirt), the t-shirt has come a long way and is now widely accepted as everyday fashion. A t-shirt can be worn under a blazer at the office for a casual professional look, or to a concert or sporting event. These simple garments are meant for having fun and to be a reflection of your personality.
When it comes to styling, it’s not just about what’s printed on your tee, but how your t-shirts fit. And with so many options, fabrics, and cuts available today, you need to be armed with the right information to find the perfect fit. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the various cuts, styles, and fabrics of modern t-shirts, helping you understand your choices and narrowing the field to find the one that’s right for you.

There are two different types of t-shirts: relaxed fit and fitted tees. Both are equally comfortable, but have their own distinct elements that may “speak” to your fashion sensibilities. Let’s dive into these two different shirt fit types and explore what differentiates them from one another and why you may lean towards the classically casual standard fit tee, or the more streamlined fashion fit style.
