A True 1940s Classic – Built to Last a Lifetime

Before mass production took over, American men wore clothing built to endure. This Vintage 1940s Heavyweight Henley is a tribute to that tradition—crafted using traditional loop-wheel machines, which produce fabric at an ultra-slow pace of just one yard per hour. This meticulous process creates a unique, handwoven texture with natural stretch and exceptional durability, ensuring a superior fit and feel. Made from 100% heavyweight American cotton, this Henley is woven for superior structure, breathability, and comfort that improves with every wear.

    Vintage 1940's Heavyweight Henley Long Sleeve Shirt – Size Guide

    When it comes to your perfect fit, every detail matters! Whether you're aiming for ultimate comfort or a sharp, tailored look, our size guide for the Vintage 1940's Heavyweight Henley Long Sleeve Shirt ensures you find just the right fit—down to the stitch. Here's how to measure and decide on your ideal size.

    Step 1: Measure for the Perfect Fit

    Sleeve: Take a soft measuring tape and start from the top of your shoulder and down to your wrist. This gives you the precise sleeve length you'll need for a classic, comfortable fit.

    Shoulders: Measure straight across the top of your shoulders, from one edge to the other. This ensures the Henley sits perfectly, avoiding that too-tight or droopy look.

    Chest: Wrap the tape snugly (but not tightly!) around the fullest part of your chest. This all-important measurement dictates how well the shirt will fit across your torso.

    Length: Starting at the center of your back neck, measure down to your preferred hemline. This shirt is designed to hit at mid-hip or slightly lower, blending comfort with a timeless, versatile look.

    Step 2: Understanding the Fit

    Your perfect Henley isn't just about measurements—it's about how it feels when you wear it. Here’s what makes a difference:

    • Sleeves: Should end comfortably at your wrist—we recommend sizing up if you’ll be rolling them up often.
    • Shoulders: The seam should align with the edge of your shoulders. A seamless fit creates that effortless, tailored look.
    • Chest: You want room to move comfortably without feeling loose—just enough to slide a finger between your chest and the fabric.
    • Length: Aim for mid-hip unless you're gearing for a longer, more modern vibe—or need enough length for a neat tuck-in!

    Step 3: Fit Tips for Every Frame

    • Relaxed Fit vs. Slim Fit: Prefer an easy, laid-back look? Stick to your regular size. For a form-fitting Henley, consider downsizing to the next smallest size. 
    • Taller or Broader Frames: If you’ve got more height or broader shoulders, go a size up for added sleeve and shoulder room.
    • Shorter or Slimmer Frames: A smaller size might work best, but double-check the length to ensure it complements your build.

    Craftsmanship Meets Comfort

    True to its name, the Vintage 1940’s Heavyweight Henley is cut, stitched, and finished to deliver unparalleled quality. The material is thick, robust, and crafted with meticulous attention to detail—so you get a shirt that not only fits like a dream but feels timelessly stylish every time you wear it.

    The Finishing Touches

    Whether you're pairing this Henley with your favorite jeans for an effortlessly rugged look or layering it under a jacket to stay cozy, this shirt is here to redefine your everyday wardrobe. Follow our size guide, and you're guaranteed a piece that feels like it was made just for you.

    Because when the fit is just right, the quality speaks for itself.
