Essentials T-Shirt size chart

Essentials runs oversized. That's intentional – drop shoulders, roomy body.

  • Your usual size = the oversized look from the lookbook.
  • One size down = a regular fit like other brands.
  • Two sizes down = a close-to-the-body fit.
  • Women: the line is unisex – go 1–2 sizes smaller than your women's size.
  • The most oversized of all Essentials pieces – if you're unsure, choose the smaller size.

Which size for which height?

Height Regular fit Oversized look
165–170 cm S M
171–176 cm M L
177–182 cm M / L XL
183–188 cm L XL / XXL
189 cm and up XL XXL

Guideline values for an average build. If you have a stronger build or broad shoulders, lean toward the oversized column. For comparison: at 1.82 m and 70 kg, M fits for the oversized look and S for the regular fit.
