In this article we will talk about the sizes of clothes for men. Agree, many are asking: “XXL shirt - what size is this?”. And not everyone can answer this. Now more!
Shirts Size XXL
All men are completely different, and therefore there is no uniform clothing size that would suit everyone and everyone quite successfully. Due to the dislike of most men when shopping, they are guided by the only condition - that it is convenient, but the concepts of "comfortable", "tight", "somehow not very sitting" can not always help simplify the determination of the right size of clothing. It’s much easier when choosing a shirt to rely on a dimensional grid. So that there are no misunderstandings when choosing, manufacturers indicate on the tags their size.
In general, clothing size is a combination of letters or numbers or both numbers and letters, which corresponds to the specific linear parameters of the human body. So, for example, among the models of men's shirts, the following sizes are distinguished:
- XXS and XS are the smallest among the existing;
- S - small, perfectly sits on thin, narrow-shouldered teenagers;
- M - medium, as a rule, is chosen by teenagers or very slender men;
- L - large size, better sitting on broad-shouldered men;
- XL - the size is very large, choose men with developed muscles or overweight;
- if your shirt size is XXL, then most likely you have large muscle mass or are overweight, as it is deciphered as super-large;
- XXXL - clothing size of large enough men.
Not only the convenience or inconvenience of sudden movements will depend on how correctly you choose a shirt according to size. Stylish strict shirt gives the man a more representative look, adds solidity and in many cases hides the flaws of the figure and emphasizes the merits.
XXL - what size is it?
In order to easily determine the size of a shirt that suits you, you will have to first take your measurements. The size of XXL shirts corresponds to the following parameters of the dimensional grid: height of approximately 180-185 centimeters, chest circumference 116-120 cm, waist size in the range from 104 to 108 cm, hip circumference 117-120 centimeters. Also note that the length of the arm to the wrist of XXL shirts is 62-63 centimeters.
Determine the size of XXL
Many men quite often come across the question: "How to determine the size of XXL?". Among designers and couturiers involved in sewing clothes, there is an unwritten rule, which consists in the fact that to determine the size of a shirt, a man just needs to measure the volume of his neck. This parameter will allow you to accurately determine the size.
However, if your height is above average, it is better not to rely only on these measurements, but to additionally measure your height and length of the sleeves on existing shirts. Since from time to time there are situations when the shirt fits perfectly in all sizes, but the sleeves are short, which immediately catches the eye and spoils the overall impression.
Decoding Size 2XL
Sometimes the difficulty in choosing shirts for men “in the body” is due to the fact that they neglect the data of such a parameter as decoding the size of XXL and XXXL. Translated from English, the size XXL means "super-large", while XXXL - "super-super", as you can see, certain differences are still present.
To dispel doubts about what size you have, take a
measuring tape and measure your parameters. With size XXXL, the results will be slightly larger than the previously mentioned XXL size options. So, for example, the
chest circumference will be 120 cm, and the waist - 112, the length of the sleeve - 64 centimeters.
Dimension
I must say that far from everyone has fully adapted to the international dimensional grid, and therefore the question of what size XXL to Russian size can still be heard in clothing stores and especially on Internet sites.
As for shirts, domestic manufacturers offer models whose size starts at forty-fourth and ends at seventy. Here, as with the international notation, it’s understandable in principle that the larger the number, the larger the shirt.
So, for example, if your Russian shirt size is 44, then this is equivalent to the international XXS size with the following parameters: chest circumference - 88 cm, waist - 70, sleeve length - 59 centimeters. Considering the most popular sizes of men's shirts, we give the following ratio:
- 50 Russian size corresponds to size M;
- 52 - L;
- 54 - XL;
- the size of XXL shirts corresponds to 56 of ours;
- XXXL - 58.
When buying a shirt, it is very important to choose the right size, but besides this, so that the clothes look good on you, pay attention to the quality of the material used when sewing, how pleasant it is to the body.
Do not forget that according to the rules of good taste it is necessary that the shirt is in harmony with the colors of the tie and suit, but the same rules today provide complete freedom of creativity when choosing the type of clothing collar, sleeve cuffs and the presence or absence of pockets.
