Fairtex Mens Apparel Size Guide

Fairtex apparel — t-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, jerseys, vests and tank tops — uses unisex chest-and-length sizing from XS through XXL. The garments are cut closer than traditional cotton apparel: technical fabrics (Nylon/Spandex blends, French Terry) sit on the body for training-friendly mobility rather than a relaxed streetwear fit. Pick by chest circumference first; if you're between two sizes, size up for a looser fit or stay at the smaller size for compression.

Fairtex T-Shirts and Vests

Measurements are flat-garment dimensions in inches. Chest is the half-chest measurement laid flat × 2 (i.e. the full circumference at the chest).

Size Chest (in) Length (in)
XS 36 27.5
S 38 28.5
M 40 29.5
L 44 30.5
XL 48 32.5
XXL 52 33.5

Fairtex Hoodies, Zip-Up Hoodies and Sweatshirts

Hoodie measurements include shoulder and sleeve length because the heavier fabric and constructed shoulders make those dimensions matter for fit. Measurements in inches.

Size Length (in) Chest (in) Shoulder (in) Sleeve Length (in)
S 26.5 43 19.5 23.5
M 27.5 46 21 24
L 28.5 48 22.5 24.5
XL 29.5 52 24 25

How to measure

  • Chest: measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape level under your arms.
  • Shoulder: measure across your back from one shoulder seam to the other.
  • Sleeve length: from the centre back of your neck, across the shoulder and down to your wrist with the arm slightly bent.
  • Length: from the highest point of the shoulder seam to the hem.

Fit notes

  • Most Fairtex t-shirts are cut from a 4-way stretch Nylon/Spandex blend — the chest figures above are flat-garment, but they stretch in wear. Size as you would a normal training tee.
  • FHS21 sweatshirt and FHS22 zip-up hoodie use a heavier French Terry fabric — go true to size for a regular fit, or size up if you want a relaxed/oversized streetwear look.
  • Basketball jerseys (JS19, JS26, JS27, JS47) are mesh-construction tank tops — pick by chest circumference using the t-shirt chart above.
  • Muay Thai-style tank tops (MTT40, MTT42) are slim-cut competition vests — chest measurement is the deciding figure; sleeve and shoulder aren't applicable.
