Polo is blue, not SA blue. I wasn’t aware that - 1. Not SA and 2. Tom Ford sizes must be for children. I bought the size 52 based off of measurements and it’s wayyy too small. $400 shipped

Just curious since I measure a medium/large in US men's clothing, but for work (I operate a global security consulting firm), I carry a handgun and need to leave adequate room so as not to "print" everywhere I travel.

Honestly not sure as I did not measure the shirt, I know it is made as fitted but yeah. I wear a large in Orlebar Brown, and most other clothes. This however I would need at least 56. Super snug fitting in my shoulders and arms - chest and waist area good.
Mine is B04
There is no way a size 52 Tom Ford polo is a US XL considering the physical measurements for a standard Tom Ford polo are 42.5 inches. Based on those measurements and knowing the shirt will shrink a little I'd say the polo would fit someone who is a 38 to 40 chest. I'm just over a 44 chest and I need a 56 or 58 depending on the cut.
1. CR. 2. TSWLM. 3. LTK. 4. GF. 5. SF.
Right, I’m a 42” chest and thought this would fit like a regular large but being fitted the arms and shoulders are extremely tight. With the way the shirt is made I’d have to size up big time.
I don’t know, I just know (sadly after the purchase and no chance of a refund) that it was sold as same shirt from Spectre in blue.
I remember mentioning that a 52 was a good fit for you. Do you dry clean that particular polo or just hand wash/air dry?
I hope you're able to get this sold!
For reference I'm a 44" chest and I bought a size 60 and put it in the washer and dryer to shrink on purpose. Now it fits quite well. Not real tight which is good I dont like them that fitted.
I didn't pay a lot for mine so why I took the chance shrinking it.
What are your arm/shoulder measurements. Like I said the shirt fits the chest, and with keeping in mind it being a fitted design, the sleeves/shoulder are very tight. I’m wondering if maybe the shirt was washed/dried incorrectly.
Im very broad with big arms. Sounds like it indeed has maybe been shrunk
XL Orlebar Polo very tight in comparison on me if thats any help for reference
I think the polo was probably washed and dried on the high setting
Granted i don't own any Orlebar Brown product but i was looking at the 007 Collection and noticed how slim fitting there shirts are. Based on the sizing chart/personal measurements I'd need a XXL
The OB sizing goes up in small increments. The XL isn’t all that large, but the M isn’t slim fitting.
I'm 6'4", 230 lbs, 21" shoulders and 45" chest in case you or anyone else needed reference for sizing.

Or if anyone has a 52, and feels like measuring I’d much appreciate that so that I can compare!
Shoulder to shoulder 19”
Back to top of collar 27.5”
Hi! I've just measured my TF SPECTRE polo shirt, also a size 52.
Pit to pit 22" (55,5 cm)
Shoulder 18" (46 cm)
Back without collar 26" (66 cm)
That's a pretty significant difference in measurements! How do.you wash your polo?
I have never washed it, bought it - tried on and put in closet. I’ll try and measure it better once I’m off.
Thanks
Oh! So far I've never worn my polo shirt since I purchased it from Tom Ford London in 2015. 8-)
It is in its box since then and that's why it has yet never been washed. So the measurements are virtually from a fresh off the rack shirt back from the year 2015.
But as others have mentioned, if I had to wash it, I would only wash it cold by hand and dry lying flat on a rotary dryer.
Unfortunately, this fact doesn't make it easier to buy older items without actual measurements.
Sorry for not being specific but my question was for Tintin
WOW that's a long time to have something and not where it but I understand sometimes it's all about finding the right time and place to do so. I would agree on the hand washing in cold water and air drying but I don't see many people using a rotary dryer here in the states but maybe I'll need to pick one up
I thought the Johhny Collar was for only one season? I realize that Tom Ford uses Italian sizing but sometimes I feel like his sizing can be a little odd especially when they change after a season. Maybe he needs to use an updated model # to reflect the differences from one season to another?
Guessing it’s gone now?
