XL for sure. I have a couple of the XLs and I'm roughly the same measurements. My one complaint is that the sleeves are almost too short for me. I have arms like a monkey though so you may not have the same issue.

i typically wear a 35 in. sleeve.
Are you sure an XL wont look like a garbage bag on me? When I tuck it in?

I would guess not but I have a couple of inches on you in the chest and waist so it's tough to say. I couldn't possibly fit in a Large though.

Well, I couldn't outsmart the system. After clicking, "check out" all the prices were updated up to the $118 price tag and there is no way I'm paying that much.

Anyone have any idea why they knocked the prices back up? It doesn't look like anything new was added (though, they did add mediums I noticed to some of the solid shirts that are pretty much gone now). Too many people buying their clothes at an appropriate price-point maybe?

Any help is greatly appreciated!


Hm...are you sure about those measurements? They're not very consistent with the info you're posting in BC, but if they're really legit you're going to want a large. XL shirts measure about 47" in the chest and aren't that slim through the body. I posted a pic with one a few months ago, the XL fits reasonably well.

Their items have been on sale for months. They may've figured everyone who was going to buy them on discount already did so and raised the prices for new unassuming buyers

Well, just so everyone knows, I'm posting the measurements of my medium.

Neck: 16"
Chest (Pit-to-Pit): 22.75"
Sleeves: 26.5"
Shoulders: 17.25"
Length (top to bottom, front): 29"
Waist (slimmest part of shirt): 20.5"
Armhole width at shoulders: 10.5"

For anyone who has these shirts, do they shrink significantly?

Thanks for the post. Yeah I would for sure need a small. Hope go snag some if they ever go down to the 59.00 dollar price point.

sorry to bring up an old thread, but just thought I'd vent about hickey's return policy. I tried to return two shirts I bought in a size medium for a size small, and was notified that they didn't have that style in small. the website still lists the small as available, however. furthermore, the instore credit they give me expires in 2 months. kinda lame.

Ugh that sucks. Did you question them about the discrepancy on their website??
