Thom Browne Shirt Sizing

bant · Apr 4, 2007

Hey guys, is anyone familiar with the sizing system of thom browne? im trying to figure out what size shirt iwould be - im a 42 - 44 chest, athletic build. i know these can run slim, would i be a 4 (the largest size)?

many thanks for your thoughts

0 would be 34
1 is 36
2 is 38
3 is 40
4 is 42

I've never seen a 5, but if it exists it'd be a 44

also, to clarify im a 16.5 neck, about 34'' sleeve. i rarely wear ties so i dont care about the neck size. thanks!

Getsmart, isn't it more like Japanese sizing where this would be:

0=34-36
1=36-38
2=38-40
etc

Well depends of the cut but sweaters are like that, no?

Fuuma, I'm not sure a size 40 could fit into a Thom Browne size 2 shirt (I guess if his stomach has a big drop from chest he could), tho you're right in the general sense

Yeah well I guess I was thinking more of his sweaters where a size 1 would be slightly relaxed on me.....

Conclusion: Try a size 4, it might fit you.

I hear ya, I tried a size 1 sweater and it was bit too tight for me....hopefully I didnt stretch out the $3000 sweater for the next guy

Thom Browne **** Sizing:

Choose the same size shirt as your little brother. In the case of no little brother, choose the size shirt you wore when you were nine. Voila.

yea we all know TB is everyone's favorite whipping boy, but if you have a slim build his shirts fit phenomenally well. Have you ever tried one on? I'm assuming not....I like how guys who have nothing relevant to say about a given topic throw in posts like ^^^^. What point were you trying to make?

It's a f**king joke. Laughter, or at least a chuckle, is the point. Come on. Get smart.

And no, I pay half of what one might pay for a TB shirt to have one made specifically for my exact measurements. I can guarantee that this fits me better than any designer shirt ever could.

point taken Chris...I guess after seeing years of the same TB jokes on this forum it's become a pet peeve of mine. cheers fella

I see where you're coming from. I should have put a smiley with my first post. Sorry for the thread derailment!

Im a L in regular BoO shirts and an XL in the overdyed oxfords, what size should i go for in thom brown shirts?

gomestar · Jan 25, 2009

TB does makes stuff in a size 5. Last time I was at Bergdorf Goodman they had a bunch TB shirts in size 5 on clearance for like $160.

And you really have to try it all on to see about fit. And it is more like the japanese sizing, but with huge emphasis on the "slim" aspect.
