How to choose the size?
You should take another shirt that fits you well. Lay it flat to the floor and make measurements using flexible ruler. The first, shoulder width (along the horisontal shoulder seam where shoulder straps should be, and behind the neck). This measurement is a key measurement, others depend on it. We give you also sleeve lenght and neck around for the information.

Description
Grey knitted shirt made of light, well-stretched knitted material. Factory quality. Own production, made in Russia.
Straight pockets on shirts appeared at after the standard uniform was simplified — in 1943. It is found in photos dated 1944-45. In addition to the simplified pockets, it has a simplified sleeve-cuff connection. Instead of neat folds, there is an "wrinkle" connection, more accessible to unskilled tailors, who by the end of the war were becoming more and more in production compared to craftsmen.
The shirt is suitable for reenactment and civilian use, especially for outdoor activities and sports, as it reliably covers the lower back (unlike T-shirts).
Before creating the shirt, the details of the original shirts were studied and taken into account. German military shirts of that time (except tropical ones) were characterized by thin and long collar ends. This is exactly what is done on our copy.
At the collar, a paper label is sewn. The inscription Trikothemd (German: knitted shirt) and the size in European system. The label is easy to remove before using the shirt.
