Aren't the sleeves shorter on the girl shirts too?

I'm a girl and I wear guy sizes. Both a girls XLarge and XXLarge are smaller than a guy's medium, so I'd go for a girls Large, which looks to be about the same as a guy's small, only a little smaller around the waist.



Sizechart.

I've bought girly XL and can fit men's M (men's M is a little bigger). Since you're a guy.... you may find that the girl shirts hang much differently on you. They are cut curvy for girl's hips and chests and narrow shoulders so you may find that they aren't comfortable. I dont like Men's shirts for that reason, the shoulders are too wide and the chest is too tight.

I'm a girly L and the guys S fit me about the same. If you find it is a little snug in some areas you could stretch it out sideways a little when it's wet.

On the some of the other blogs that have been about this the shorter sleeves bugged some people and others not as much. You could always wear a zip-up hoodie if you had to.

thanks for the replies. Also are the sleeves are the girls sizes smaller? Or does American Apparel have a similar full sleeve size for both.



thanks again.

I think American Apparel girl sleeves go about halfway down the arm while the guys go a little closer to the elbow and are a little fuller. You could check out profile pics to get a better idea too if I'm not explaining myself well.
