Fit & sizing

Oversized vs Boxy vs Regular Fit: What's the Difference?

A regular fit follows the body with moderate room. A boxy fit has a straight, square body, often slightly shorter. An oversized fit is larger overall, with dropped shoulders and a longer, looser body. Zentoku tees combine a boxy body with a drop-shoulder oversized cut.

The three fits compared

Fit Shoulder seam Body shape Overall look
Regular At the edge of the shoulder Follows the torso Neat, close, classic
Boxy At or slightly below the shoulder Straight and square, often shorter Structured, modern
Oversized Dropped onto the upper arm Wide and long Relaxed, streetwear

Where Zentoku fits in

Zentoku describes its cut as an architectural drop-shoulder fit with a boxy, oversized silhouette, supported by 240 GSM fabric that holds its structure. In practice that means a square body that does not cling, shoulders that sit down the arm, and a length that falls below the waistband.

Which fit should you choose?

  • Choose regular if you want a neat tee for tucking in or wearing under a blazer.
  • Choose boxy if you like structure without much extra length.
  • Choose oversized for a relaxed streetwear look, especially with a large back graphic.
