How to Measure for the Perfect Shirt Size

To get an accurate measurement, use a flexible measuring tape wrapped flat against your body. For the best results, keep one finger between the tape and your body to ensure room for movement.

1. Chest (الصدر): Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape horizontal under your armpits and across your shoulder blades.

2. Waist (الوسط): Measure around your natural waistline (typically where your belt sits) to ensure the shirt buttoning feels comfortable when sitting.

3. Shoulder (الكتف): Measure from the tip of one shoulder blade, straight across your upper back, to the tip of the other shoulder blade.

4. Shirt Length (الطول الكلي): Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (near the collar base) down to your preferred hemline.

FAQs

  • How do I know my shirt size in Egypt?

    To find your shirt size in Egypt, measure your chest, waist, and shoulders in centimeters using a measuring tape. Compare these metrics against our brand-specific chart. If you fall between sizes, choose the larger size for a relaxed, comfortable feel or the smaller size for a tighter, tailored look.

  • Do Egyptian shirt sizes follow US or EU sizing standards?

    Most premium men's clothing brands in Egypt utilize European (EU) sizing conventions, which focus on centimeter measurements for precision. Our sizes range from Medium (M) to Double Extra Large (XXL), adjusted specifically to fit the standard body proportions of the Egyptian market.

  • What should I do if my shirt size falls between a Medium and a Large?

    If your measurements sit exactly between two sizes, consider the shirt fabric and cut. For a 100% cotton or slim-fit long-sleeve shirt, we recommend sizing up to accommodate natural movement. For linen or stretch-blend fabrics in a comfort fit, stick to your smaller size for a cleaner look.

  • Does cotton clothing shrink after washing?

    Our shirts are pre-shrunk during the manufacturing process to minimize post-wash changes. However, premium cotton blends can still experience minor shrinkage if washed in hot water or machine-dried. To preserve the exact fit from our size chart, always wash your shirts in cold water and air-dry them on a hanger.

  • What is a 42 in men's shirts?

    It depends on the region. In US/UK sizing, it means a 42-inch chest (Large). In European sizing, it means a 42 cm collar (Large to XL).

  • Is 32 size L or M?

    Neither. For men's shirts, a 32-inch chest is an Extra Small (XS). (If you are looking at pants, a 32-inch waist is typically a Medium).

  • What shirt size is 180 cm?

    Typically a Large (L). In height-based sizing matrices (like 180/96A), 180 cm is the standard height tag for a men's Large.

  • Is 42 size XL or L?

    It is most commonly a Large (L) for standard US/UK chest sizes, though it can cross into XL territory in European slim-fit collar sizing.
