Checking Shoulder and Sleeve Fit
Review shoulder and sleeve measurements together when comparing a traditional garment’s fit.
Confirm the measuring points
Ask whether shoulder width is measured seam to seam and where sleeve length starts. A dropped shoulder or a different sleeve construction can change how a number should be interpreted. Use the method intended for the actual design.
Think about movement
Consider reaching and bending the arm, not only the appearance while standing. Compare with a comfortable garment of a similar construction. If the product chart lacks these measurements, ask before ordering rather than assuming a larger chest size solves every fit issue.
