The Ultimate Size Guide for AMD Apparel
By Don MorrisonFind Your Perfect Fit
Nothing kills a good look faster than a bad fit. At Anchor Me Down Apparel, we want every piece to feel like it was made for you. This guide breaks down everything you need to know to find your size — whether you're grabbing your first AMD tee or adding to the collection.
Our apparel runs true to size with a modern, athletic fit. Not too tight, not too boxy — designed to look good whether you're hitting the gym, heading to the dock, or just out living life.
How to Measure Yourself
Grab a flexible measuring tape and take these three key measurements. For the most accurate results, measure over a thin layer of clothing or directly on the body.
Chest: Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, under your arms. Keep the tape level and snug but not tight.
Waist: Measure around your natural waistline — the narrowest point of your torso, usually just above the navel.
Length: Measure from the highest point of your shoulder, down to where you want the shirt to end.

Between Sizes?
If your measurements fall between two sizes, here's our recommendation:
Prefer a fitted look? Go with the smaller size. Our heavyweight fabric has minimal stretch, so the fit will be snug and structured.
Prefer a relaxed look? Size up. You'll get a comfortable, laid-back fit that's great for layering or everyday wear.
For hoodies: We generally recommend going true to size. Our hoodies are designed with a modern cut that allows room for layering without looking oversized.
Fit Tips from the AMD Crew
Athletic build? If you carry more mass in the chest and shoulders, go true to size. Our shirts are cut to accommodate a built frame without looking like a tent around the midsection.
Tall and lean? Our lengths run generous, so true to size should work well. If you prefer a cropped look, consider sizing down.
Broad shoulders? Focus on the chest measurement first — that's your primary sizing indicator for AMD tees.
Care Instructions for the Best Fit
Our shirts are pre-shrunk, but proper care keeps them looking fresh longer:
Wash cold — inside out to protect prints and color.
Tumble dry low — or hang dry for the absolute best results.
No bleach — ever.
Iron inside out — avoid direct heat on printed areas.
Follow these steps and your AMD gear will hold up for years, not months.
