How to Measure a T-Shirt Correctly Before Ordering Online

Buying a t-shirt online can be tricky if you’re not sure about your size. That’s why knowing how to measure a t-shirt properly is so important. At PrintJC, we want to make sure your t-shirt fits comfortably — whether it’s a Microfiber T-Shirt, a customized design, or a sport shirt for active wear.

Here’s a simple guide to help you measure a t-shirt at home.

🧵 What You’ll Need

• A measuring tape (with inch and cm markings)

• A flat surface (like a table or floor)

• A t-shirt that already fits you well

📐 Key Measurements for a T-Shirt

1. Chest Width

   • Lay the t-shirt flat.

   • Measure from armpit to armpit (straight across the chest).

   • Double this number to get the full chest size.

2. Body Length

   • Place the tape at the highest point of the shoulder (next to the collar).

   • Measure straight down to the bottom hem.

3. Shoulder Width

   • Measure across the top from one shoulder seam to the other.

4. Sleeve Length

   • Measure from the shoulder seam down to the end of the sleeve.

5. Neck Opening (optional)

   • Measure across the collar to check how wide the opening is.

👉 These are the same measurements we use for our size charts, so you can compare your results and order your Microfiber T-Shirt or sport shirt with confidence.

📏 Inches (") vs Centimeters (cm): What’s the Difference?

Many t-shirt size charts use inches (""), while some international brands (especially in Asia and Europe) use centimeters (cm).

• 1 inch = 2.54 cm

• 1 cm = 0.39 inch

For example:

• A chest width of 20" = 50.8 cm

• A body length of 28" = 71 cm

✅ Tip: Always check which unit the size chart is using. At PrintJC, we provide both inch and cm measurements to make choosing the right customized t-shirt easier.

👕 Pro Tips for Accurate Sizing

• Always use a t-shirt that fits you well as a reference.

• Don’t stretch the fabric while measuring — keep it flat.

• If you’re between two sizes, go one size up for comfort, especially for sport shirts that need flexibility.

✅ Why Measuring Matters

By checking your size before ordering, you’ll:

• Avoid returns or exchanges

• Save time and shipping costs

• Get the perfect fit on the first try — whether it’s a Microfiber T-Shirt for daily wear or a customized sport shirt for your team

✨ At PrintJC, we believe the right fit makes all the difference. Use this guide before placing your order to ensure your next customized Microfiber T-Shirt or sport shirt feels as good as it looks.
