I just got a shirt from Spurr. It's really slim. I kinda like the fit at first but it began to feel a little too tight at the chest. How tight should a shirt fit? or is it just that i am not used to such a fitted shirt yet? I can't button the first button and I am worried it's so tight that when i move around i'd show my undershirt inbetween the buttons.

IMO it's too small man. You can see it at the bottom where it looks like the shirt bunches up where it sits on your pants and the 2 sides are spread and don't touch.

Personally, you are asking the wrong forum. Styleforum has this obsession where every clothes you wear should be fit like swimsuits.

Your shirt fits like a swimsuit so it is a good fit!~

Definitely too small for me. You don't really look comfortable in it, and if you aren't, size up one or try a different shirt.

shirts way small. look at the bottom button. it's about to bust. every button on the shirt is stressed for that matter.

size up 1, as per consensus
