Does anyone have this tshirt or one similar that can tell me how the sizing runs.  I got one as a gift and its a little tighter than I like so I want to swap it out.  Thanks in Advance!

I don't have that one but I have this cap sleeve top in a few colors. I'm pretty petite (sz 0, narrow shoulders, teeny boobs) and I got it in size small (which I think is their smallest size) and it's tight on me. So I guess maybe their sizes run a bit smaller than other stores since I'm normally an XS.

Thanks CC.  I just don't know what to go with.  I've been buying Smalls at the mall and I'm definetly not a small in this shirt!!  I don't know if a Medium would be any better or to go with the Large and shrink it maybe.  I am trying to do an exchange through the mail which is making it even harder!!

I buy smalls at all the mall stores as well. IIRC, you and I have the same chest size (34D). I consistently wear an M in AA tops and bottoms.

Thanks Lilykind.  Yes we are the same size and probably built almost the same.  I think I'll go with the M then

i am the same size as you guys too, and i have that shirt.  it fits in a M, but it's very tight.  i have lots of american apparel shirts, almost all of them in size M, and i would say that this particular one runs smaller/tighter than usual.  i'd wear it more if i had gotten an L.

I don't have that exact shirt, but I'm a small/medium in mall stores, and the medium in AA shirts is really really tight on me.  I would actually get the large and let it shrink a little over time.

just my 2 cents (i used to order AA shirts for a previous job i had all the time).  i normally wear a Small in shirts.  I would order a Medium in AA when i wanted it to be fitted and tight adn a Large in it when i wanted it to be looser.  oh- and I have a 34B chest.


hth!


edited to add- just saw what shirt it is that you are looking at and i would def. get a large.  i have that exact shirt (in the green too!) in a Medium and it is tight on me...
