How to Measure
       
Neck
Measure a shirt with a collar that fits you well. Open the shirt and lay the collar flat. Measure from the center of the collar button to the far end of the button hole. The measurement in inches is your collar size. (Alternatively, measure around the base of your neck, inserting a finger or two between the tape and your neck to allow for comfort.)

Chest
With arms relaxed at your sides, measure around your chest at the armpits, over the highest part of your chest and shoulder blades, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.

Height
Stand in stocking feet with your feet slightly apart and your back to a wall. Measure from the floor to the top of your head.

Arm
Bend your elbow 90 degrees and place your hand on your hip. Hold the tape at the center back of your neck. With a friend's help, measure across your shoulder to your elbow, and down to your wrist. The total length in inches is your sleeve length.

Regular or Big?
 
Regular
Regular describes a well-proportioned body 5'8" ? 6'0" tall, with hips and chest of equal girth.

Big
Big describes a body of 5'8" - 6'0" with a less athletic profile. Pockets and other details increase in size for a pleasing proportion.
