Shirts for short men

Todd Shelton offers sleeve lengths starting at 32 inches and increasing in one-inch increments. Men under 5'8" typically wear a 32 or 33 inch sleeve.

Measure down the sleeve from the top of the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff. Measure across the shoulders and divide by 2. Add the two measurements together. For example, if your sleeve length measures 25 inches and half your shoulder width is 9.5 inches, your sleeve length is 34.5 inches.

Todd Shelton offers body lengths from 3 inches shorter than standard to standard in one-inch increments. Men under 5'8" typically wear 1 to 3 inches shorter than standard.

Your height and tucking preference determine your ideal body length. Todd Shelton measures body length along the placket — the strip of fabric running down the center front of the shirt where the buttons and buttonholes are located — from the seam where the collar band meets the placket to the bottom hem.

If wearing untucked, the hem should end at the middle of the zipper. If wearing tucked, the shirt should stay tucked when reaching above your head.
