I’ve been buying some vintage clothing too & while I have not had to return anything yet, I’m finding the manufacturers sizing can vary also. So it’s sort of a crapshoot!
No kidding Jack. This one is tagged size 17 but yet armpit to armpit width was only 22.5”. I always ask for measurements if not already provided, makes for easier returns.

As I posted in the other thread I’ve been buying a few vintage Woolrich flannel shirts that surface in my size. A nice soft flannel, they launder up nice. I particularly like the Navajo/Aztec & tribal patterns from 20+ yrs ago. I wear them as a cover shirt over a Henley, crewneck, or mock turtleneck. Need to take pics again of the others.

This Woolrich Bros was made in Bangladesh. While I like the pattern & colors, the flannel is not a soft cotton flannel even after laundering. And the button holes are crappy.

This one was made in India. It’s the same crappy flannel as above but the button holes are better.

Now I look for US made Woolrich only.

I have 3 vintage Wrangler flannel pearl snap Blue Labels I bought 25+ yrs ago, stripes mostly. I’ve been looking for plaids & got this one. It’s a nice shirt but the flannel is lightweight.

I’ve been searching for anything from the Wrangler American Cowboys label series but they are just not out there.
