How to choose?

A shirt of a classic style is a basic element of a men's wardrobe. It should be made of high-quality fabric - cotton, or with the addition of synthetics, but not more than 5%.

Important! Linen and silk products are appropriate in everyday life, but undesirable for work in the office, because they do not correspond to the dress code.

There are several important points to consider when choosing a thing of the right size. It is not difficult to determine: It is necessary to measure the girth of the chest and divide the resulting number into two.

Domestic sizes correspond to European ones in this way:

• 46-48 - S.
• 48-50 - M.
• 50-52 - L.
• 52-54 - XL.
• 54-56 - XXL.
• 56-58 - XXXL.

Important! Seams at the base should be placed exactly on the shoulders.

In order to determine the correct size of the collar, you should measure the girth of the neck, and add 1-2 cm to the resulting number for freedom and convenience. You do not need to add more, because when tying a tie, the collar may become deformed, as a result of which it may look untidy.

Important! A correctly selected product should have a length that can be easily tucked into pants. The optimal sleeve length is one where the cuffs touch the base of the thumb.
