Tshirt sizing/What brand name Tshirts will be used? (Now with even more information)

Hi,

My measurements: for 6'3", 165lbs, male, 37" chest, 32" waist.

I typically wear an XL because I am 6'3", but because I am only 165 pounds, it is not all the uncommon that I need a larger size just to accommodate for my height. On the reverse side, also some times X-larges can be too wide and practically look like a dress. Basically it comes down to, it the large is long enough in height I would get that. Do you have any measurements for the sizes or do you have the brand name of the actual shirt (because I can see if what I have with that brand name fits with what size). Any extra information would be greatly appreciated.

edit- the XL that fit me well are "jerzees" and "gildan" brands. I know for a fact I need a larger size if it is "american apparel" (they run short). Other brands I would need to look into more, but there are brands were I need a smaller size too such as "kirkland signature" (in which a large fits me best).

I also just found this on google:
http://jinxgamingstation.spreadshirt.com/all-i-do-is-A11635154
Which says Jinx Gaming, but is not their official site. However it does say "Classic-cut standard weight t-shirt for men, 100% pre-shrunk cotton, Brand: Gildan "
If I could have that (brand=gildan) confirmed for your t-shirts I would know immediately that an XL would fit me well.

edit- when I google "What t-shirt brand does jinx print on? gildan?" I get 3 different shirt all Gildan brand from jinxgamingstation.com

If it is gildan that would be excellent (firstly for sizing, and additionally) I consider those to be one of the best quality tees.

Other 2 jinxgamingstation tees printed on Gildan:
1) http://jinxgamingstation.spreadshirt.com/rater-e-for-epic-A11669845
2) http://jinxgamingstation.spreadshirt.com/stay-blocky-A11644410

As the shirts are shipped out by Jinx, you should be able to check their sizing chart on their website! If you go to any product (ie http://www.jinx.com/p/broken_image_t_shirt.html?catid=&s=men,jinx) and under the sizes click "Sizing Chart", it has a list of measurements for each size.

I hope this helps! If you have any further questions feel free to email us at support@grindinggear.com :)

Thanks for the fast reply!
The link mentions:

"

Premium Tees: Premium tees are 100% combed ring-spun cotton. Supremely soft with a slimmer fit than a basic t-shirt.
Basic Tees: This Basic tee is a durable, 100% Cotton t-shirt cut in the classic style. It is slightly wider than the premium tee.

Which one is being used? The sizing chart isn't very helpful because I am a 32" waist (which corresponds to a small) and I know for a fact that no small is going to be long enough for me.

(edit:)Once I enter the code in it says

"

"T-shirts are 100% cotton, shaped for a classic, relaxed fit, and sized to fit adult males with US sizing. "

This doesn't exactly match either of the two descriptions though.

(edit:) I just measured my chest and it was 37" too, also pointing to a small (along with my waste). However I know from experience only Large or bigger tends to long enough to reach my waist.

So I am assuming I should go with a Large, but if I had a figure for the neck to bottom length it would be much easier to see which size was best.

I emailed support and got a response, but I've yet to find out:

1) if it is a premium or basic t-shirt (the premium is a slimmer fit the site claims, so I would be much more confident an XL would fit me if premium).

2) on the sizing chart from the site you linked me what does "sleeve (shirt)" size refer too? Perhaps the length of the sleeve if it were a long sleeve shirt?, or perhaps something more useful for determining my size?

Support responded to my email:

"

Sorry about the confusion. I will forward this email on to a senior
support member that will investigate this for you and will confirm
back. Apologies in advance for any delayed response but they will get
back to you as soon as possible.

Now I need to know
1) was my code consumed once I entered it, rendering it useless unless I leave a browser tab on the jinx site?
2) is it Gildan brand??? oh pleass I hope so!

Searched on amazon feedback and the second feedback on this shirt says it is hanes:

http://www.amazon.com/Jinx-Official-Licensed-Minecraft-T-shirt/dp/B0087J4O7Q/ref=sr_1_8?s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1376089031&sr=1-8

"

The best part is how soft the shirt it is (Hanes)

Hanes run very small from my experience (especially after a wash or two) and I would need a 2XL at least.

Further clarification is needed to order correctly.

I also found this page:
http://www.cafepress.com/mf/41367043/jinx_tshirt
Which lists the measurements including length (much more useful). They have options like XL tall though, which would be the best for me I believe but is not an option of sizes offered.

X-Large Tall 48" 33.5" 20"

(chest, length, sleeve)

But I sent the link to support@grindinggear and they said:

"

I believe those t-shirts are different to the ones we'll be supplying,
and not related to the Jinx gaming website - it seems to just be
linked to a designer named Jinx Dawson.

also I dug around the page to select sizes and found it IS a BASIC Tee, NOT premium.

I made a post in off topic asking has anyone ordered a basic t-shirt from jinx that can comment on brand used or height to width ratio, but no replies have come in yet.

Q: What is the T-Shirt Sizing?

A: J!NX Basic tees are durable, 100% Cotton t-shirts cut in the classic style. This should fit like your average t-shirt. Sizes are standard US sizing.

Further clarification is needed to order correctly.

I also called 1(888)jinxcom and got a cs representative who said that you guys (GGG) have not decided on the shirt type yet but this contradicts the information on https://www.jinx.com/reward_program_faq.aspx?r=poe#sizing.

I took some measurements this morning

Waist: 33"
Chest: 37"
(These measurements would fit into a medium or maybe even a small, but I know from experience I need at least a large).

Bottom of neck opening to front bottom of shirt: 24" minimum.

Can anyone comment on the length "Bottom of neck opening to front bottom of shirt" in the 3 sizes (Large, X-Large and XXL)?

I would like to get the smallest size which suffices in length so it is not way to wide on me.
Any information would be greatly appreciated!
