      @Slash sleeve length varies from garment to garment (like all other dims), so comparing it to X product is largely redundant as there is no "standard". I appreciate sometimes it does not come out as people hope but generally, it is not a deliberate choice. I suspect you'll be able to find examples of recent shirts that have both longer and shorter sleeves.

        @AdamJ Hey Adam, thank you for taking the time to respond, good to know !

        And btw, I don't think it's a problem really, I think I remembered a post from Gilles (talking about a ex-colleague) saying that those "non-standard" measures from product to product were also what could make the day of someone, since all bodies are very different really.

        Cheers !

          I would recommend to not only consider the sleeve length, it also depends on the position where the shoulder seam sits. Wider shoulder and the sleeve can be shorter.

            @Slash we also only ever measure 2 of a tag size and take an average, so if you ever do want a +/- a small amount in one dimension, the crew will always try to see if one exists for you if you add a note at the time of ordering 💪

                  I know this shirt is cut different and a different style, but I really have no idea what size to choose. Traditionally I am A xxl (19.5 inches) but in this new cut a xxl is 20.9 inches, so to wear as a shirt shoulders would be a Medium in this. But….as a overshirt would I go L or xl? Is there anyway to show how this shirt fits side by side as in M/L, L/xl, xl,xxl? Or even like a L/xxl? call me confused in California…..lol i’m just not sure how large an over shirt is supposed to be

                    @jimcord I wouldn't overthink it. Look at the measurements and you can workout what usually works for you in order to achieve a "standard" fit. If this means sizing down one size from your usual size, then do that. Don't be led by the tag size.

                    I appreciate it's a different fit though. Take a look at this thread. It's the same cut with lots of good fit pics from the team showing how they'd wear it and what they'd usually wear. If you're after a specific set of dimensions let us know and we'll see what we've got!

                      @catdad1 I reckon I would stick with my usual UHF work shirt size (3XL), feels like there's a little more room to previous UHFs here I'm wearing a wool shirt underneath and doesn't feel too restrictive if I wanted to wear it the 430-BRN like an over shirt, feel like the 4XL would just be too baggy.

                            @Biecher unless someone asks then probably not, but if there is a certain staff member that is a similar build to yourself and you want to see them in the shirt or any garment I would just tag them and ask them what size they would wear and if they can attach a photo, that wouldn't be a problem.

                                @americanathreads Graham doesn't work here anymore man. What size are you generally? I'll ask the most similar member of staff to try on for a comparison!

                                  @AdamJ ah my bad. I’m 6ft, 85kg, 41inch chest. XL is my larger size, L smaller. Seems to be more XLs lately, but leaning L here. Thanks!

                                    I would be interested in Sam trying a medium and or Large. I’m 5ft 11” (181cm) with a 40” chest, about 78kg. I think a medium is right on the money, but then I have to be careful with washing.

                                    And sorry I don’t know Sam’s tag.

                                          @Biecher I'm a bit shorter than you (5' 8") but similar chest and weight, the medium would be my go-to, even accounting for a little shrinkage. The large looks a bit too big on me, so I didn't photograph it, this is the medium. Hope that's helpful!
