Shirt Size Guide — Men, Women, Kids & Infants

Find the right fit for your Ms Light Creations shirt. These are general body-measurement guides, not exact garment measurements. Different blanks, brands, cuts, and long-sleeve styles may fit differently. If you are between sizes or prefer a relaxed fit, size up.

How to measure: Wrap a soft tape measure around the fullest part of the chest, keeping it level and comfortably snug. The numbers below are body chest measurements in inches—not the flat width of the shirt.

Men’s / adult unisex T-shirts

Size Approx. chest (in) Fit guidance
S 34–36 Closer fit

L 42–44 Standard fit
XL 46–48 Roomier fit
2XL 50–52 Roomier fit
3XL 54–56 Roomier fit

Women’s fitted T-shirts

Fitted cuts generally run narrower than adult unisex shirts. For a looser silhouette, consider adult unisex sizing.
