I am fairly skinny 5'10", ~160 lbs, however I have a very muscular and lean build. Most pronounced are my arms. Because of this most henleys and tight sweaters do not fit me. Does anyone know a brand that makes their medium sized long sleeved shirts with more room in the sleeves?

I'll bite................


I have this problem sometime too as I have really broad shoulders but a small waist. To be honest deep v's and henleys (if we're talking really casual tops) are the best because the allow the bottom of the shirt to remain fitted white the top block can stretch to fit your chest/shoulders.
