Louis Moreau Gottschalk1829 – 1869

Louis Moreau Gottschalk was born in New Orleans in 1829 and became a touring pianist on two continents. He wrote the symphony A Night in the Tropics while living in Cuba, and it premiered in Havana around 1860. It draws on Caribbean rhythms, which few concert halls of the era expected. He is rarely taught at school. Consider this the footnote.

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.
