Dmitri Shostakovich1906 – 1975

Letraset, founded in London in 1959, sold rub-down lettering from 1961: press a letter onto the sheet and it lifts onto the page. Designers used it for posters, punks for record sleeves. Shostakovich has enough letters to use up a whole sheet, and in 1936 Pravda gave him a famously bad review. It called the opera muddle instead of music.

how to measure

first things first: grab a shirt you already love the fit of, a measuring tape, and a flat surface. lay the shirt flat, smooth it out, and compare its measurements to the chart.

see the fit guide

length: from the highest point of the shoulder, where it meets the collar, straight down to the hem.
chest: straight across the shirt, 1" below the armholes, from side seam to side seam. it's measured flat, so double it to compare with your own chest.
sleeve: from the center back of the neck, over the shoulder point, to the end of the sleeve (to the end of the cuff on sweatshirts).

All measurements are of the garment laid flat, from our spec sheet. Allow a little tolerance either way.
