What size should i get for the flex fleece hoodie f497 by American Apparel??

Ok, I know this has been asked a million times before but i've been getting inconsistent answers from researching online. I want to buy an american apparel flex fleece hoodie (unisex) online, but i am unsure of the sizing. Here are my measurements:

 

5 ft 8 inches

138 lbs

UPADATE: remeasured my chest, chest around 36 inches (without a shirt)

waist 30 inches (inseam 30inches if that helps)

normal to muscular build - I work out

 

I know that american apparel has sizing info on their site, and according to these measurements i should be opting for a size small but i am slightly concerned the small might be short length wise. I want the hoodie to fit me a TINY bit on the baggy side, i am not a fan of super tight hoodies.So I am seriously considering getting a Medium because I have started working out at the gym and might bulk up a bit. My only concern is that the medium would be wayy too baggy for me as the size chart says it is for men with chest size 38-40inches and waist 32-34 inches. Though i am slightly confused as to whether or not we measure our chest with or without a shirt on because i plan to wear a shift underneath.

Has anyone purchased one of these hoodies from american apparel before? could you give me some basic info on the sizing, i can't decide whether or not i should get a small or medium. THANK YOU!

Buy a small, dude. I'm 5'10" 145-150 and I have a medium that I think is a bit big on me. I'd say you are for sure a small. Also, this isn't really the place to start a new thread. You should be asking this in the small questions thread or something. You'll get flamed for starting a new thread about something like this.

Thanks for the tip. I'm worried that the hoodie will shrink though as alot of people have commented on the shrinkage. Did yours shrink at all when washed? so much that it would go down a size
