i wanna buy some sweet shirts/hoodies (mostly shirts though since its summer) but im not sure how big/small companies make their shit, so how do the following fit (shirts and hoodies if you know, but whatever you know would be helpful)?
EC Headwear, Line, Armada, Oakley, and whoever else you know of
i usually wear large or xl and it fits like a normal t-shirt (not a tall-t person at all). im 6'2 and 190 for refrence
thanks

unless its specified, I think most companies' shirts fit like a normal tee

Order a size larger than you normally would w/ the EC hoodie.

Yeah what you want is super vague. Every company uses a different shirt to print on so every company will have a slightly different fit. I'll post up all the companies I have
EC Headwear - fits big and pretty long to begin with but can shrink if you don't wash right. If you don't want any shrinkage then wash cold and lay it out to dry.
Armada - Great quality, shrinks a tiny amount but hardly any at all. Normal tee
Line - Fits fairly loose to begin with but will shrink MASS. At least my invader tee from the 06/07 season did
Volkl - Fits smaller than any of the t's I've owned. Will shrink a little and my neck stretched out a little. Just don't hang dry.
Rossignol - Fits normal, normal shrinkage
4frnt - Great quality T's. Doesn't shrink unless you screw up like I did. Neck stretched a little, but it could be due to my ignorance when it comes to washing clothes.
Hope that helps a little. Those are all the companies I have t-shirts for.
O wait!
Dakine - most legit shirts ever. Mine was printed on American Apparel (don't know if they all are) but mine was an XL, fits more like a L kinda tall T. Arms are a little short, but great fabric and feel.

Oh and one more thing. If you plan on buying a shirt from Surface, I'd advise against it unless you like paying 30 dollars for nothing. I'm not kidding. I paid 30 some odd dollars a good 2 months ago and have gotten countless e-mails saying they sent multiple shirts out to my residence. Have yet to see anything.

My favorite fitting shirts are lines. They fit kind of long i guess, but not really and the sleeve length is perfect for me.
Armadas are a little wider
EC normals are pretty small, and the xl's are pretty big.
All times are Eastern (-5)
