How to use the measurements

 

Width is measured flat about 2 cm below the armhole. 

  • Garment chest ≈ width × 2 (circumference).
  • Measure a T-shirt you already love, and match it to the table above.
  • Measurements are taken with slight stretch in the fabric and can vary up to 2 cm. 


 


After washing & fit over time

  • They only settle slightly with wear and washing. Follow the care instructions to keep the fit looking great.
  • If you’re between sizes, size up.

 

Frequently asked questions for 220/200/180 T-shirts

Here you’ll find answers to the most common sizing and fit questions for our 200/220 fabrics.

Do 200/220 fit differently than 135/160?

Yes, slightly. 200/220 are designed for a heavier fabric and are therefore made a bit wider than 135/160.

  • Want the same close look as your 135/160? Consider sizing down by one.
  • Want regular fit or room for layering? Choose your usual size.
I’m between sizes — what should I pick?

Choose based on the fit you want:

  • Close fit: pick the smaller size.
  • Regular fit: choose your usual size (or the larger one if you’re in-between).
  • Relaxed fit / layering: pick the larger size.
How do I use “width” and “length” correctly?

The most precise method is to measure a T-shirt you already love and compare it to the table.

  • Width is measured flat about 2 cm below the armhole (half chest).
  • Garment chest ≈ width × 2 (circumference).
  • Expect small variations — measurements may vary by up to ~2 cm.
Will 200/220 shrink after washing?

Merino may settle slightly with washing and wear, but with proper care the fit stays looking great.

  • Use a wool/delicate cycle with wool detergent.
  • Avoid fabric softener and tumble drying.
  • Air dry and gently reshape after washing.
I want to wear it as a base layer — which size?

For base layering, most people prefer a slightly closer fit so the layers sit neatly.

  • Typically choose your usual size for a close/regular base-layer fit.
  • If you’re between sizes, often choose the smaller size.
