This shirt fit perfectly! We got this yesterday and went out last night with friends and all of the men commented on the shirt, and I sent them all links. I love the different color around the arms, and it makes my boyfriend's arms look great. He's 5'9 and 170 and size 32 waist. It hugs him around his waist to show off his physique. I think if you have a soft waist this might not be the shirt for you.
