How to measure: Lay a long sleeve you like flat. Measure straight across the chest, armpit to armpit. Pick the size with the closest chest width. Length runs from the top of the shoulder to the hem. Sleeve runs from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff.

Fabric: 100% combed, ring-spun cotton, 4.2 oz per square yard. Ribbed cuffs.

Care: Wash inside out in cold water. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Don't iron the print. Don't bleach or dry clean.

Each piece can differ from the chart by up to 2 inches.

Variant

Someone is retelling how you two met. Their version is better than yours, so you let it ride. Then they put it in the wrong city.

“I do not mind lying, but I hate inaccuracy.”
— Samuel Butler
The Note-Books of Samuel Butler, ed. Henry Festing Jones, 1912. Ch. XIX, “Truth and Convenience.” We check every line against a primary source.

Butler never published these notes. His friend Henry Festing Jones edited them after his death, and they came out in 1912. That’s why the shirt carries no year.

Pull it on the night you finally correct the record.
