Oversized and boxy are the two fits behind most streetwear tees right now. They look similar on a hanger but feel very different on the body.
Oversized
Wider and longer than a regular tee, with dropped shoulders and long sleeves that reach the elbow. It drapes and reads relaxed.
Boxy
Wide like an oversized tee but shorter in the body, often cropped near the waistband. Paired with heavy fabric it holds a square, structured shape.
Example measurements (size M)
| Measurement | Regular | Oversized | Boxy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chest width | 52 cm | 60 cm | 61 cm |
| Body length | 72 cm | 76 cm | 66 cm |
| Sleeve length | 20 cm | 24 cm | 22 cm |

Which fabric weight?
Boxy fits need weight to hold their shape, so 260–300 GSM works best. Oversized fits drape well at 220–260 GSM. See our GSM guide and our oversized t-shirt manufacturing page.
