Instructions

Having your Dress Shirt Size Ready

1. In order to buy dress shirts online, the first piece of information that everyone will have to have is their dress shirt size, which is of course the measurements of themselves. If you already have this information then you can skip on to the next section. But for those who need to know how to measure themselves for their dress shirt size, keep reading!

2. Many retailers who sell dress shirts will usually list the dress shirt size on their website by either the neck and chest sizes. These are perhaps the two most important measurements that you'll need to have handy in order to buy a dress shirt online.

3. To measure your neck size: wrap a tape measure around the base of your neck where the top of a dress shirt collar would go. For easier measuring you could place an actual shirt on to assist you with this task. A regular-sized male who would need a dress shirt size "Medium" would probably measure between 16" and 16.5".

4. After you have your neck size measurement, either add 1" to the measurement for a loose-fitting dress shirt or 0.5" for a snug-fitting dress shirt.

5. To measure your chest size: wrap the tape measure around your chest at the point where your chest sticks out the most while standing straight and tall. After you have identified your chest measurement, add 2" to the number and round up to the next inch. A regular-sized male who measures "Medium" will usually have a chest size of around 42" - 45".

Actually Buying the Dress Shirts

1. If you usually have a specific retailer for the dress shirts you buy, type their web address into your browser's address bar. Otherwise, dress shirts can also be found on major brand-name retailers, such as Sears, Elder-Beerman, The Gap, and even JCPenney.

2. Once you are at the retailer's website you will probably notice many sections. One section, which you'll be looking for, is "Men's." Click on that section with your mouse.

3. On the retailer's website their should be a section titled "Dress Shirts," or something to that effect, in the Men's section. Click on the "Dress Shirts" or other dress button.

4. Find the dress shirt style of your choice and make sure you are selecting the right size according to your measurements. Oftentimes the retailer will have a measurement guide that can help you out. Otherwise, use the measurements that you took in the section above. As mentioned, a regular-sized male will usually have a neck size of 16" to 16.5" and a chest size of around 42" to 45".

5. Click the "add to cart" button that will usually be available on the retailer's website so as to allow you to checkout at the end of the ordering process.

6. After you have finished adding products to your shopping cart, you are ready to pay. Many retailers accept major credit and debit cards, such as Visa, Mastercard, and Discover. All you have to do is type in your payment information and click "purchase" to finalize your payment for the dress shirts you've chosen!
