I need help buying shirts-specifically the shoulders. How does one judge the shoulder width on a shirt bought mail-order? Large is too large me me (usually), but Medium is too small in the chest. When I pay attention to such things, I notice I rarely get it right. How do you select the right size shirt when ordering online?

I currently have two Panama hats from Truffaux Hatmakers - The Meridien (image #2) & The Blue Valentine (image #3). I've had The Meridien for over two years, and The Blue Valentine for a few months. When I ordered that one, I also ordered The Mandrake (image #4), but it was backordered and should be arriving in a few days (at last note it was on a plane). A couple of days ago, I got an email from Truffaux about a sale - and a great one at that: 25% off all Panama hats! So, naturally, I ordered two more. 😁 I ordered The Marakesh (image #5) and The Casablanca Fedora (image #6), but for that one I opted to upgrade to a deluxe burgundy ribbon. Even though the hats are listed in basic sizes, when Oska knows your exact head size, he chooses one specifically for you - taking into account how much the hat is expected to shrink. For this order, Oska is also lengthening each hat into a long oval for my head shape. This service is a $1 (yes, one dollar) add-on with a hat purchase. The ribbon upgrade was $30. You can also add feathers to your hats if you desire (which I usually do). My first experience with Truffaux was asking for advice, using the email link from the website. Out of the four or five he recommended for my face shape, I chose The Meridien. Obviously, I was not disappointed... So, if you want to take advantage of this sale, here's what I recommend: Step 1: Visit Truffaux Hatmakers to get an idea of their offerings. Step 2: Optionally, email Oska ([email protected]) a picture of your face, asking for recommendations. Step 3: Order your favorite hat or hats in the size you think is correct, using coupon code RESTLESS25. Step 4: Reply to the follow-up email about getting your size correct with your actual head size. (Centimeters is preferred, use a flexible tape to measure. You can follow this guide.)
