Fitted T-shirts for men sit closer to the body than loose or boxy styles. The shape follows the shoulders and torso more closely, giving the T-shirt a slimmer silhouette. Look at the cut, fabric and neckline to find the fit that works for you.

Slim fit and close-to-body cuts

A fitted T-shirt is designed to sit nearer the body, but the exact shape can still vary between styles. Some fits are more closely cut through the chest and waist, while others leave a little more room.

Check the individual fit description and measurements rather than relying on size alone, especially if you are choosing between fitted, regular and boxy T-shirts.

Necklines, sleeves and small details

Details around the neckline and sleeves can change the look without taking attention away from the fitted silhouette. A simple crew neck keeps the finish clean, while contrast binding or ringer details add more definition around the edges.

You can also choose between plain styles and printed T-shirts depending on how much detail you want in the outfit.

Wear fitted T-shirts on their own or as a layer

A fitted T-shirt works well on its own with men's jeans or trousers, but the closer cut also makes it easy to wear under a men's hoodie, overshirt or jacket without adding too much volume.

Fit can vary between models, so check the product information and size guidance before choosing.
