No. You need something far slimmer. 65/35 blend of what? Cotton/poly? It won't shrink much at all. Try some slim fit all cotton shirts.

Okay, thanks. I am glad that I got it for very cheap.

Do you have any suggestions for a tall skinny guy like me?

Things labeled slim fit. And stick to all cotton. Poly isn't the end of the world, but it's something to avoid.

But you're right in that it won't really matter under a sweater. Or a jacket, for that matter, provided they fit. But if the jacket or sweater comes off, your shirt fits like crap, and it's obvious.

And the pants are fine, from what I can tell with the crappy photos.
