Shorter T’s For Shorter People
Current lengths don’t look good untucked if you are leas than 5’9”. A “short” option like they do for suits would be incredibly. About 40% of the male population ages 20 to 40 are less than 5’9” and around 20% are shorter than 5’6”

Not only for shorter people as I find the 'T's' too long. Especially the V necks -

Saul MaciasAnd!!! You could charge the same amount of money for the shirts using less material! It’s a win-win!

KermitAgree. Love your slim style shirts, but with the lower button buttoned, I cannot get in to pee. Shorter option would be better

EricksonPlease adjust the cut of a shirt based on sizing. A size S should have a chest and waist measurement (Fit) similar to a size XL. Also, shorter lengths in shirts and waistcoats are a significantly better look.

Ron Hunt MergedI pay to have the sleeve of my XXL shirts shortened. Could you offer this service? I might make you more money and save me some. Regular customer.

JK MergedShorten the men’s size large from today’s 32” to 28” overall to eliminate excess length and match length of standard cotton undershirts from other manufacturers.

RobertYes, please! I love the t-shirt I bought but it is way too long to wear untucked and I really dislike wearing one tucked in. The shirt now mostly stays in the drawer unfortunately.

Charles Gruenwald, MD MergedMy height is 5' 7", and my weight is 140#.
Your shirt size "S" (regular fit) works best for me if worn tucked in. Its back length measures 30 " which is OK if tucked but too long for untucked wear. It should be 3" shorter, in my case to wear untucked.
When I called to inquire, I was advised to find a local tailor, and I believe that to be much too cumbersome.
I would appreciate hearing your thoughts.
Thank you! -

MattWhoever left the comment that size S should be same fit in chest as an XL - that is crazy talk! I'm upvoting this feature with the hope that I'm in no way voting for baggier fits on small sizes. Thx!

MikeMost brands design tshirts for people who are 6'1" figuring average height people will buy it not knowing better. Actual average height is like 5'9.5" and an untucked t-shirt length in size S or M for someone who's 5'8" or 5'9 should be like 25", not 27"+. I've just spent a couple hours browsing brands searching for a wearable shirt and tearing my hair out every time I see their size medium is being modeled on a 6'2" dude and the length fits them well. For reference 6'2" is the 95th percentile not a normal medium in any way shape or form.

BlaineI’m 6’1” and still find the tees too long (especially my wool/linen blend tee).
I don’t like needing to raise my shirt to get into my pockets (side or back). -

EmilI feel as though the excellent drape of W&P's fabrics allow for the shirt to hang lower and display more bunching at the hips than stiffer 100% cotton shirts, so it similarly needs to be cut shorter to wear equally. I specifically find that the sleeves are definitively too long on long-sleeve options at 5'6" tall in medium, though. They cover my hands down to my fingertips if I let them drape freely. The ponte jacket in particular stands out as too long both in torso and limb for the shorter man, resulting in some ugly arching outward by the zipper when sitting down.

BreakingUpWithIcebreakerok lets be clear - only shorter body length - the sleeves length are fine - they fit/hit perfectly fine. I am 5' 7" and would like just the body of the T-Shirt to be 2 inches shorter... I also think 6" tall people will look good in these T-shirts ..
