Monday Theory has not launched. The collection is published so people can say which designs they want made first; choosing a piece joins a waitlist rather than placing an order.

What it is

How it fits

A clean chest

Cut with real room across the chest, so the fabric bridges it instead of clinging to it.

A straight fall

The front drops straight from the chest to the hip. It skims your stomach and never outlines it.

Ends at your hip

Long enough to cover your waistband when you sit, never long enough to swallow you.

The heaviest cloth we cut

280 grams holds its own shape, which is exactly what you want over the stomach.

Fabric and care

Contrast white topstitching on the shoulders, armholes and hem, which only looks good if the stitch line is dead straight. Machine wash cold, inside out, and line dry to keep the colour and the shape at their best.

Size chart

Sizes follow INDIAsize, the national sizing survey run by the Textiles Committee under India's Ministry of Textiles, which measured over 25,000 Indians and designates a man's size by his chest girth in centimetres. The published men's chart stops at 113 cm, below this range, so 2XL to 7XL continue it on the standard's own grade rule of 4 cm a step with the waist 7 cm under the chest.

Questions

Will it fit me?

Every piece comes in 2XL to 7XL (chest 45 to 63 inches). Check the size guide above. Between two sizes? Pick the bigger one, and if it's still not right, exchange it free within 7 days.

Will it make me look bigger?

No. Clothes make you look bigger when they cling, pull or hang too long. This sits clean on the chest, falls straight and stops at your hip, which gives you one long, sharp line.

Should I tuck it in?

No need. Every top is cut to be worn untucked: it ends right at your hip and covers your waistband, even when you sit down.

What if I don’t like it?

Return it within 7 days of delivery for a refund, or exchange it. There is no return fee.
