Guys Size


Question Posted Thursday July 21 2005, 3:31 pm

Im buying a shirt for a friend of mine who is 6`1 and quite thin. Im not sure what size shirts he wears and I dont want to ask him because I want it to be a surprise. Do you think a large or meduim would work best? Looking at both length and width. I dont want him with baggly clothes but I dont want it too short either.

Based on his height I would say a large shirt would work. My father is 6'2 and he wears a large. Make sure you buy it from some place with a great return policy and keep the receipt. That way if it doesn't fit, you both can take it back together.

a medium might be a little to short so i would go with the large and if you need to you can always get it hemmed and it would fit better, it helps if you know somebody who can sew

DangerNerd answered Thursday July 21 2005, 5:15 pm:
Hi there,

I am 6'4" and can tell you that regular shirts aren't good for anyone over 6' usually.

They make shirts in tall and extra-tall sizes. If you are buying off the rack, look for a tag marked "LT" which is large-tall. I wear a "2XL-XT" when I can find it, but usually a "2XL-T" will work.

As he is 6'1, you should be good with an LT size.

If you can't find one in the usual places, go to JCPenny's, they have a BIG+Tall catalog you can order from and pick it up right there in the store.

DangerNerd.

My friend is 6'0" and he wears large shirts so a large would be a good size for your friend.

mu hubby is 6'1" and thin as a rail. He always wants large and gets mad if i buy medium, becuase I too don't want him to wear baggy clothes either. get a large and he will be happy.
