- Regular Fit: More room through the chest and waist, offering a traditional fit.

- Sleeve Length:
- Sleeve length can vary by brand. Make sure to check the sleeve length measurement to ensure it fits your arm length.
- Material:
- Different materials may fit differently. For example, cotton shirts might shrink slightly after washing, so consider this when choosing your size.

- Measure around the fullest part of your bust, under your arms.
- Waist:
