HOW TO FIND YOUR SIZE
Step 1 — Measure your chest
Wrap a soft measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest, just under your armpits. Keep it level and snug but not tight. Keep one finger between the tape and your body. This number is your chest circumference — match it to the "Fits Chest" column above.
Step 2 — Check your length
Measure from the top of your shoulder straight down to where you want the shirt to end. Most guys measure to just below the hip bone.
Step 3 — Use a shirt you already own
Don't have a measuring tape? Lay a shirt that fits you well flat on a table. Measure across the chest from armpit seam to armpit seam and double it — that's the chest measurement. Match it to the "Chest" column in the chart above.
Metric conversion: 1 inch = 2.54 cm. Example: 40" chest = 101.6 cm.
FIT GUIDE
Comfort Colors 1717 is a relaxed-fit heavyweight tee. It's not a slim fit. It's not a boxy oversized fit. It's the classic, slightly relaxed American tee that gets better looking the more you wear and wash it.
Want a fitted look? Size down one. If you normally wear a Large, order a Medium. You'll still have room to move — it just won't be as relaxed through the chest and shoulders.
Want your normal fit? Order your true size. The shirt will sit at the hip with a clean, relaxed silhouette. This is how most of our customers wear it.
Want an oversized look? Size up one. The drop shoulder and extra length give it a layered, workwear feel that looks great over a base layer.
BLANK DETAILS — COMFORT COLORS 1717
Weight: 6.1 oz/yd² heavyweight cotton
Fabric: 100% ring-spun cotton
Process: Garment dyed — each shirt is sewn first, then dyed, giving it a naturally broken-in, slightly unique look
Fit: Relaxed, slightly boxy — built for real wear
Shrinkage: Pre-shrunk — minimal shrinkage expected with proper care
Feel: Soft, heavy, worn-in from day one — gets better with age
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
To keep your Outforge shirt looking sharp and the print lasting:
Wash: Machine wash cold, inside-out
Dry: Tumble dry low heat
Iron: Do not iron directly on the print — iron inside-out or avoid the graphic area
Bleach: Do not bleach
Dry clean: Do not dry clean
High heat is the enemy of both the garment and the print. Cold wash, low dry. That's it.
SIZING FAQ
Will these shirts shrink after washing?
Comfort Colors shirts are garment-washed before they ship, so most shrinkage is already done. Wash cold and dry on low and they'll hold their shape. Avoid high heat.
I'm between two sizes — which do I pick?
Size up. The relaxed fit wears well slightly large. The only exception is if you specifically want a fitted look — then go with the smaller size.
Do all 4 designs in Drop 001 fit the same?
Yes. Every shirt in Drop 001 is printed on the same Comfort Colors 1717 blank. The sizing is identical across the Breakout Tee, Cross Bones Tee, Man's Best Friend Tee, and Skull Rider Tee.
Can I exchange if I get the wrong size?
Yes. Unworn shirts in original condition can be exchanged within 30 days of delivery. Contact us through the Contact page and we'll get you sorted.
What does "garment dyed" mean?
The shirt is sewn first, then dyed as a finished garment. This gives it a naturally uneven, slightly faded look that makes each shirt feel unique — like it's already been somewhere. The broken-in texture and relaxed color variation are features, not flaws.
How does the print hold up over time?
Outforge uses high-quality DTG (direct-to-garment) printing. Wash inside-out in cold water, tumble dry low, and never iron directly on the graphic. With normal care the print is built to last as long as the shirt.
STILL NOT SURE?
If you're still unsure about sizing, contact us before ordering and we'll help you pick the right one. We'd rather help you get it right the first time than deal with a return.
