Should I size up for an oversized t-shirt?

If you are buying a t-shirt specifically marketed as 'Oversized' by a premium brand, you should usually order your normal true-to-size fit. The garment has already been engineered with dropped shoulders and a wider chest to provide that specific drape. Only size up if you want a highly exaggerated, extra-baggy look.

How is an oversized t-shirt supposed to fit?

The shoulder seams should drop past your natural shoulder line, the sleeves should hit close to the elbow, and the chest should fall freely without hugging the torso. The length should sit just below the belt line, unless it is specifically a 'boxy' cut, which sits higher.

How It Should Fit

The Shoulders

The shoulder seam should fall 1-3 inches past your natural shoulder line, creating the signature 'drop' effect.

The Sleeves

Sleeves should be wider and longer than standard tees, generally resting just above the elbow joint.

The Length

Unless you are wearing a Boxy cut, the hem should sit just below the belt line without fully covering the pockets.
