The oversized fit, explained. And how to pick a size.

How the Oversized Fit Works, and How to Pick a Size

NVUS Hearts tees are cut oversized: a boxy body, dropped shoulders, a relaxed drape. This is how the fit is meant to sit, and how to choose a size for the look you want.

The cut

The body is boxy rather than tapered. The shoulder seam sits below the natural shoulder. The tee reads oversized through the body and sleeves without hanging long. It is the way streetwear is worn now.

Picking a size

Measure, do not guess. XL means a different measurement at every brand, so the only reliable comparison is against a shirt you already own. Lay one flat and measure straight across from armpit to armpit. Match that number to the chest column on the size guide. The same number means the same fit through the body. A bigger number means ours wears looser by that much.

XXL

XXL measures 27 7/8 inches across the chest, two inches up from XL, the same step as every other size in the run. It carries a small upcharge, shown on the size button before anything goes in the cart.

The chart

Chest width is measured straight across from armpit to armpit, laid flat. It is across, not around. Every size, with its measurements, is on the size guide.

Hats

The trucker hats are one size, adjustable. The snapback is a flexfit. Nothing to choose.

Returns
