Smaller end of sizing run not accurate / Linen is scratchy
This one was a disappointment for me. I initially ordered a small and it was way too roomy in the body and sleeve holes were set too low. Additionally there didn't seem to be much of a waist in the cut and there wasn't much to validate the idea of this being a slim fit. With a 36.5 chest at 171cm I though a XS would surely do it, so I returned the small and reordered the XS. Set the shirt aside thinking it should be correct - left for a vacation, got busy with life. Surprise. shoulders still to wide for 36.5 chest, body too long, and this is the most generous slim fit shirt I have ever worn. I can't imagine this fitting anyone seeking an XS - it's really a standard cut 38 chest shirt. Since time had gone by I figured I had eaten the cost on this one so tried a light drying to tighten it up. Still not good. Also, whatever bespoke linen manufacturer the cloth came from is nothing to write home about - scratchy out of the bag, scratchy after on wearing, scratchy after a wash. My bad for not trying on and returning. And I guess you get what you pay for with linen.

Hi Timothy,
We're sorry to hear that this shirt did not workout for you. Kindly note that we offer a size chart providing front chest measurements for shirts on all product pages in order to assist before making a purchase. We have not heard of our linen being scratchy, but a fabric softener during laundering may be able to assist.
Best,
The Todd Snyder Team
