Question RPF T-shirts

[JD]

First, I looked for a thread about the RPF T-shirts and couldn't find one (that I could reply/ask questions about).

Basically, I'm wondering what type of t-shirts are being used. There's no indication of sizing guidelines, especially as they tend to vary dramatically.

(And honestly, I have some other questions... but I figure I'd be banned or blacklisted for asking them publicly).

LOL...I do believe I have an idea of your questions. They would probably cause eyes to roll, not heads.

Will get back with you on that. I think they are "Canvas" brand.

Probably.:cool

Thanks.

Just an FYI... their size chart: http://www.bella.com/images/pages/item/sizingcharts/canvas_sizechart.jpg

Their big sizes seem to run kinda small.

That's for sure, I was very excited to finally get my shirts i ordered. Very nice looking and good quality, However, I put my XL on and it looks like I got it from baby gap. Real "athletic" fit but also long. I am a big guy but not fat. 6'1" 230, and usually XL t shirts are fine for me but not this brand. I'm not sure but I don't think they offered anything bigger. Could have gone for a XXL.
Oh and my wife said "Nice muscle shirt babe!"

huh their 3x is kinda small as most 3x covers up to like a 54" waist. Then again i always go 4x just for the wiggle room.

Got my XL today and wow, the last time I bought XLs this small was in Japan.

Based on this one shirt, buy 2 sizes larger than you want.

 

[Art Andrews]

Do you guys not feel the shirts are matching up to these sizing charts?

I have a 44 inch chest and the xl shirt was pretty tight on me....not sure if you could tell in the photo and Munson's video.....i had to pull on it to stretch it out....I was determined to wear it for the con haha

If we do another run of these, we will either clearly note this in the ordering section or we will switch to another brand of shirt. Aside from them seeming to run a bit small, do you like the overall quality of the shirt?

I hope there's another run. I thought we had until May for some reason so I missed that date by a mile.

I got one second hand from a dissatisfied member that didn't like the fit. Seeing the posts that it ran small, I though next size up would work well. The shirt fits like a Large (what I was looking for) and a narrow Large at that. I typically like a t-shirt that's a little thicker. This one feels a bit thin, like the shirts Ript Apparel uses versus the shirts Woot or Teefury uses. It seems to be about 3-4"s longer than any other t-shirt I own.

Hi,

I received both my shirts and I am very happy with the size and quality :thumbsup

Cheers Chris

Given a number of similar comments like this, I think we will use a different brand of shirt next time. What was the size of the shirt you bought?

Does anyone know what brand of shirts Woot or Teefury uses?

That would be great! We have some more shirt ideas for the future and are not opposed to switching shirt brands.
