I received my first test shirt from Jantzen and, for the most part, it fit nicely. However, I believe next time, I will lenthen the shirt a bit. I ordered a black irish linen shirt with a squared off bottom. However, I do have on "fit" type question. I have a relatively large upper body/pec area (lift weights, etc.). With the squared off bottom, the front of the shirt rises up a bit, so the shirt does not appear to be squared off (front rises up to belt level in front and is a couple inches lower in the back). Any idea what I should tweak (other than length) to adjuster for the larger than normal "pecs".

Thanks

How about increasing the chest measurement? Measure one of your existing shirts that fits well in this area.
