Cheers. I had spotted it. The UK site is very unreliable for the sizing unfortunately. Being a big lad now, it's important for me to know what label the shirt is on for fitting purposes. I have to order all my gear from the US to be sure, the UK site has let me down too many times. Ordering from the US site is soooooooo expensive now, I only do it if I'm flush and it's something I really want. I got this from the US site. I know a 2xl will fit from the US. The UK have been using really obscure tees, and the 2xl have been fitting like a large only.

Does the UK website use shirts that have the B&C collection tag? I know those are a pain in sizing. The US store ships to the UK? Well how cool I wish EMP would ship to the US so Many cool shirts on there.
Yes!! The B&C. Those are the exact ones I'm talking about. They're even worse than the fruit of the loom. The US store does ship to the UK. It's really expensive now though. The delivery is really expensive then they add on tax now too. I bought the Megs forever sweatshirt from the US store. They had it in 3XL. It fits fine. The UK store only did a 2XL, and I wasn't prepared to trust it's fitting.

yeah those B&C are a pain i had a shirt with that tag never wore it so i just gave it to a friend.
The Megadeth UK store B&C shirts I have to say are an excellent fit.
The gildan softstyle (ring spun) I have huge problems with. They are just horrible and a total waste of money. They shrink and are out of form after a wash.
Large (EMP) sells those shirts now and the Peace Sells shirt (M and L) are both completely unwearable now as are several others.
A shame because I really like that design with the fighter planes on the back.
You've obviously got the right body for them!
My advice for Gildan softstyle, wash them on a delicate cycle. And don't machine dry. I haven't had any shrink following these steps.
As for B&C, if your perfect fit is Gildan heavy cotton 2 XL , which mine is, you need minimum 3 XL in a B&C shirt. That then fits like a 2 XL Gildan softstyle. This isn't a problem if a) The retailer gives you the label information, and b) They do a 3 XL!!!
Megadeth web shop or EMP fail to give you this information. And yes I've emailed them about it multiple times!
Fingers crossed. I had a couple shrink until I started doing the delicate wash, which apart from a lower temperature also doesn't fast spin either. And let them dry naturally on a line or on a clothes horse indoors. Since I started doing this, not a problem. Obviously, it's a pain, because I wait to wash my shirts together, because I can't wash them with anything else. So it's a slow turnaround on getting your t-shirt back unless you're prepared to wash one t-shirt! ๐
