Did a search on this and didn't see a conclusive answer...
I'm a relatively small guy and measure a sleeve length of 32". Do most guys get an extra inch in there for give and to make room for washings? I'm worried to go 32" with a whole bunch of shirts and to start noticing the sleeve's too short -- not that I'm 100% clear on what too short means!
I have shirts from Thomas Pink where a size 15" means 34" sleeve size, which still looks fine on me, IMO, although there's a bit more fabric.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
P.S. this is spurred by my intention to order some BB Classic Oxford dress shirts (extra slim fit).
