Hi,
I'm going to purchase a plain Fred Perry M6000 model polo shirt (the non-twin tip version), but I'm unsure on the size to get. I'm currently carrying a stone of fat that I intend to lose.
Having tried on the Fred Perry polo shirt in the XL and XXL sizes I find:
An XL Fred Perry polo shirt is snug around my stomach (23.5" pit to pit width) and tight around my arms (7" in width).
An XXL Fred Perry polo shirt is looser around my stomach (25" pit to pit width) and not hugging at all, and a little looser around the arms (7.5" width) but still tightish.
Both the XL and XXL are the same in length.
I wash all my clothes on a normal cotton 30 degree wash, minimal spin, and then hang-dry. Should the polo shirt shrink even half a size then the XXL is the size to get.
Do Fred Perry polo shirts shrink at 30 degree washes?
Do you have any experience to guide me on the size to purchase?
Thanks.
