Tee sizing
Measurements are of the garment laid flat, in centimetres โ measure a tee you already like and compare, which is more reliable than guessing from a body measurement. The cut is generous through the body and square at the shoulder, so if you want it close take one size down. Combed cotton: expect it to lose about two percent in length on the first cold wash and nothing after that.
| Size | Chest | Length | Shoulder | Sleeve |
| S | 100 | 69 | 44 | 21 |
| M | 106 | 71 | 46 | 22 |
| L | 112 | 73 | 48 | 23 |
| XL | 118 | 75 | 50 | 24 |
| XXL | 124 | 77 | 52 | 25 |
Two hundred and twenty grams of combed long-staple Egyptian cotton, tubular knit so there is no side seam to twist. The collar is ribbed and taped across the back, which is the difference between a tee that lasts a season and one that lasts three years.
Fit
Regular, straight through the body, with a sleeve that ends mid-bicep. Take your usual size.
Care
Wash cold, inside out, dry flat. It will lose about two percent in length on the first wash and nothing after that.

The cotton is lovely and the collar really is better than the ones I have been throwing away. But it is cut boxy โ I took the M and should have taken the S, and the size guide it showed me was for the overshirt, with sleeve lengths that have nothing to do with a tee. Three stars until the sizing is clearer.
Store manager My Elega –
You are right about the guide, and thank you for saying so โ the tee was showing the shirt measurements. It now has its own, with flat chest and length figures and a line saying the cut is generous through the body and to take one size down if you want it close. Reply to your order email and we will swap the M for an S with the courier covered both ways. โ My Elega

The collar is the difference. I have thrown away a lot of tees because the neck went slack after a few washes; this one has been through six and still sits flat. Ordered two more.
