T-shirt size guide (Bella+Canvas 3001)

Every t-shirt in this shop is printed on the Bella+Canvas 3001 unisex jersey tee, a 4.2 oz combed ring-spun cotton shirt with a retail fit. It runs true to size. Order your normal size, or size up one if you like a relaxed fit. The measurements below are taken laid flat, in inches and centimetres, for the sizes we stock: XS to 3XL.

Chest width is measured across the shirt about 2.5 cm below the armhole, side seam to side seam. Body length runs from the high point of the shoulder to the bottom hem. Manufacturing tolerance is about 1.5 cm, so a garment can sit slightly either side of these numbers.

How to measure yourself

  • Chest: lay a tee you already like flat, measure straight across it under the arms, and double that number.
  • Length: measure from the shoulder seam next to the collar straight down to the hem.
  • Between sizes: size up. The 3001 is a retail fit, not an oversized cut.

What size should I order?

Pick the size whose chest measurement matches a tee you own. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one. Available sizes vary slightly by colourway, and each product page lists the sizes it actually carries.

Do you sell anything other than t-shirts?

T-shirts are the main range, with posters added as they are released. Everything is printed to order after you buy it, so nothing sits in a warehouse.

What if the fit is wrong?

You have 30 days to request a return or exchange. Use the contact page with your order number and we will sort it out. Full details are in the returns policy.
