I wanted to try MTM, proper cloth gives the advice:
You have a shirt that fits, but don’t trust your ability to measure: Mail us a shirt to copy
If you’ve never had a shirt that fits right and you have a unique shape: Measure your Body
Good advice, but I've never had a good fitting shirt and don't trust my ability to measure. Mostly I am worried about a huge error - I will give the width of a body part when they want the circumference, or vice versa and end up with an 18 inch or 72 inch waist.
If I post measurements here, can someone do a sanity check? I am not that unusual, if our society was in better shape, I could be called average. But off the rack shirts have too much extra fabric around the middle or are too tight in the shoulders. I am not looking for a perfect fit on the first shirt, just something wearable and eventually to make small adjustments and buy near perfect MTM shirts the rest of my life.
