Quick answer

Measure around the fullest part of your chest, under the arms, and match it to the chart. In most Indian brands a 36–37 inch chest is S, 38–39 inch is M, 40–41 inch is L, 42–43 inch is XL and 44–45 inch is XXL. If you are between sizes, go up one for slim fit and stay at your size for oversized T-shirts, which are already cut loose.

How to measure

  1. Stand relaxed and wrap the tape under your arms around the fullest part of your chest.
  2. Keep the tape level across your back and snug, not tight.
  3. Choose the fit you like to see whether to size up.

Frequently asked questions

Is a 40 chest M or L?
A 40-inch chest is L in most Indian brands, and M in some international brands that run larger. Check the brand's garment chest measurement.
Should I size down for oversized T-shirts?
Only if you want a less baggy look. Oversized T-shirts are cut 4–6 inches wider than regular, so your usual size already gives the oversized look.
Do T-shirts shrink after washing?
100% cotton T-shirts can shrink 3–5% in the first hot wash. Wash cold and dry in shade, or size up if you are between sizes.
