Bolzonella 1934 Size Guide: How to Find Your Perfect Fit

A handcrafted shirt is like a second skin. Since 1934, our mission has been to combine the excellence of handcrafting with impeccable comfort. However, we know that choosing the right size online can be challenging.

In this guide, we'll show you how to measure correctly to ensure your next Bolzonella 1934 shirt fits you perfectly.

The best method: Measure your favorite shirt

Instead of measuring your body, we recommend measuring a shirt you already own that fits you perfectly. Lay it out on a flat surface and use a tape measure.

Key measures to take:

  • The Collar: Open the shirt and measure the distance from the center of the button to the opposite buttonhole.

  • Chest: Measure the width of the shirt just below the armhole seam (from armpit to armpit).

  • Waist: Measure the narrowest point of your shirt, usually midway between your chest and the bottom hem.

  • The Sleeve: Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff.

Tailor's tip: If you're unsure between two sizes, always consider the fabric type. Denim or w

ashed linen will hold up differently than stretch poplin.

Shirts may have slight size variations (approximately ±2%) compared to the sizes shown, due to washing and treatments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does the shirt shrink after washing?

Bolzonella 1934 shirts undergo washing and finishing treatments that stabilize the fibers. If you follow the 30°C washing instructions, shrinkage is minimal and already factored into the design.

What do I do if I'm between two sizes?

If you prefer a more formal and clean look, choose the smaller size. If you're going for a more relaxed look or plan to wear it open often, choose the larger size.
