Paul23 | I've no idea if this is the right section to post this in but I wasn't sure which part of the forum it best fitted in! I was looking to order a T-Shirt from one of the NASA gift shops. I usually take an X-Large in UK sizes but wasn't sure if an X-Large in the UK means the same thing as an X-Large in the US! Can anyone offer any help? |
Tykeanaut | In my limited experience I've always gone for the same as my UK size. I think the make is sometimes more important as the cut can differ from manufacturer to manufacturer. Please accept this reply in a very manly James May way!! |
Paul23 | Thanks for the reply, we may now return to smoking our pipes and saying harumph a lot! |
Ade74 | I normally take a large for t-shirts in the UK but the polo shirt size I chose (which fitted) after doing the astronaut training experience was a medium. Hope that helps. |
Tykeanaut | I've got to ask... what astronaut training!!? |
NavySpaceFan | He means the Astronaut Training Experience. Some of the best money I've ever spent!
|
Fezman92 | I was thinking about doing that when I go down but the next time I go down is to see STS-134 so is it worth it? |
NavySpaceFan | It was when I did it in 2006, but that was the old, whole day program. Haven't heard about the half day one. |
micropooz | Would that be an X-Large in English or in SI units? |
Ade74 | That's the one! I did the half day last September... fantastic, definitely recommend it and a good laugh too!! |
Paul23 | Well I'm sure you've all been having sleepless nights wondering about this, but I decided to order an extra large, it turned up today (packed in a gummi bears box for reasons best known to themselves) and an extra large was a good fit. Just mentioning this in case anyone else is ordering for the first time and is unsure on sizing. |
Blackarrow | I always thought NASA t-shirts came in three sizes: large, extra-large and humungous....or was I thinking of something else? |
