CPO Shirt Size Chart

NOTE: The tables show the measurements of the garment itself.

Please follow these directions to ensure you order a garment that fits the way you want.

The easiest way to determine the size you should order is to measure a garment you already have that fits the way you want. (Why measure a garment?)

• The garment you measure should not be a knit, because knits are normally too stretchy
• Completely close the center front of the garment
• Lay the garment very flat on a table
• Measure across the chest, just below the armpits
• Double the measure across the chest, giving the actual chest size of your garment
• Compare the chest size of your garment with the sizes in the chart (inches or centimeters)

For example, if your garment measures 24 inches across the chest, you would order a size Large because the 48-inch chest of the CPO matches the 48-inch chest of the garment you measured. The Medium would be too tight. And even if your garment measured 23 inches, you would still order the Large because the Medium is an inch smaller than the size you prefer. A little big is usually much better than a little bit small.

If you seem to be in-between sizes, we suggest ordering the larger size.

• Chest is measured 1 inch below armhole.
• Bottom Circumference is measured at bottom of garment
• Over Shoulder Sleeve Length is measured from center back of neck across outside of arm to the end of sleeve
• Body Length is measurement from the collar seam (center back) to bottom of garment
• Shoulder-Shoulder measurement is from shoulder tip thru back of neck to other shoulder tip point

 

We will soon replace the size chart below with an updated chart that is more consistent with the new drawing.
