Size guide 
Polo No. 1 has a loose fit. Calculate a positive ease of approx. 10-12 cm [4-4.75 inches]. 
The sizes are equivalent to the European standard sizes 34/XS (36/S) 38/M (40/L) 42/XL (44/2XL) 46/3XL (48/4XL) and suit a chest measurement of approx. 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) cm [31.5-33.5 (33.5-35.5) 35.5-37.5 (37.5-39.5) 39.5-43.5 (43.5-47.25) inches]

For example: You measure 89 cm [35 inches] at your widest + 10-12 cm [4-4.75 inches] = 99-101 cm [39-39.75 inches]. Meaning that you would choose a size S with a finished circumference of 101 cm [39.75 inches].
