    FAQs

    What does the letter mean (Y, A, B, C)?

    Y = lean / athletic (chest-waist drop 12-17 cm men). A = standard. B = slightly fuller. C = fullest. Most off-the-rack labels are A. Y for slim cuts, B/C for relaxed and plus.

    Why does Chinese sizing run smaller?

    Chinese baseline body measurements run smaller than US averages. A Chinese L often equals US M. Brands selling internationally may relabel for US market — check the cm measurements.
