A Load of Squit 5,135 Posted April 27, 2020 I'm about to order a shirt for a birthday present and as it's for a 60th they'll be some bespoke lettering on the back. As it's policy not to accept returns after lettering has been added I want to make sure it will be the correct size. In previous posts there has been some debate over the sizing and the table below was quoted. I think for a 46inch chest the size would be 2XL, am I correct?

TIL 1010 4,722 Posted April 27, 2020 No way will a 2XL fit a 46 chest mate. I suggest 4XL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricardo 7,349 Posted April 27, 2020 Go for 2 sizes up from your normal size is my advice. Replica shirts are always cut on the skimpy side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted April 27, 2020 A bit big and he can grow into it too tight and it can't/won't be worn ps perhaps you might wish to buy one of those mini kits that hang in a car - wrap it up in large box and tell him you hope you got the right size 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted April 27, 2020 I think for a 46inch chest the size would be 2XL, am I correct? And a subscription to Slimmers World. I bought the graphite one as a 2XL and it just fits but I can't move my arms. Which is handy when its my round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mason 47 1,373 Posted April 27, 2020 This is the very reason I didn't take advantage of the money off recently- in recent years I've been anything between an XL to 3XL so I don't risk it unless I can try it on. The last thing I ended up with was a 'player fit' XL which fits like it sounds, and I'm usually 44-46 chest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
