All measurements are in centimeters — the overshirt is measured flat.
How to choose the right size
Chest measurement: Measure horizontally under the armpits, from one side of the shirt to the other while it is lying flat. Multiply by 2 to get the full circumference.
Shoulder width: Measure from one shoulder seam to the other, while the garment is lying flat. Check that the seam falls directly on your shoulder bone.
Back length: From the collar to the bottom of the shirt. Useful for knowing whether it should be tucked in or out of the trousers.
Overshirt tip: The blended wool is soft from the first wear but may shrink slightly after the first wash. If you are between sizes, choose the larger size.

The chambray is supple from the first wear. Genuine mother-of-pearl buttons. German quality, as always with Pike Brothers.

My husband hasn't taken it off since. The vintage style is classy without being over the top. The fabric quality is excellent.
