Back when I was fat I was wearing 3XL all cotton Dickies that were bursting at the buttons and I was considering 5XL because I figured moving to a 4XL would be a temporary fit at best. A couple of weeks ago I got a new shirt that is a cotton poly blend since WM doesn't seem to carry the all cotton one any more except in the denim and since I wear jeans with these shirts it is just too much denim iykwim. For polo type shirts I wear either an L or an XL depending on the brand so I picked up an XL. I wanted it as an around the house work shirt so a little big was going to be okay. That sucker was a tent. It was almost as big as my old 3X shirts. Even if it was all cotton I don't think it would have shrunk enough to not be tentish and tent sized is why I don't wear the 3x when I leave the house even if I am just making a quick trip to the gas station or something. So I took that one back and, considering the scope of vanity sizing that the XL was, I got a Medium. It fits but the arms and shoulders are really a bit too tight. But it looks good
