... getting an idea of requirements for MVS t-shirts.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

Ahem, I would need a XXXL! Like the first design, but agree grey may not be the best color, but maybe white may not be either as you would lose some of the definition.

I'll add xxxl to the matrix. It won't appear in this poll.

Offer nothing but TALL sizes. XXXL (and larger) are OK in "regular". I'll refrain from voting.

Mention in your product description that your shirts are "TALLS" and are of higher quality.
Remind potential purchasers that TALLS stay tucked in and look smoother ALL THE TIME.
How to mention it vis' the price is up to you.

One "tee-shirter" I saw mentioned that their offerings were made from the Haynes Beefy-T collection of blank shirts.

The Provincial Park System (Canada) bought slightly superior quality tees for their shirts and while better-in-length, they weren't tall enough. Those were truly "half-a-loaf". Ask me how I know.

Many Volvo owners are taller. A number of them might be Nordic types loyal to the brand while others are just taller and simply needed a larger car.

Kids look cute in tall tee shirts.

Tall people are used to any premium in price and will not buy regular sized tees because they know from experience that they won't fit AND WILL BE shoddy when compared to the shirts they're used to buying.

Women like tall sizes to wear as sexy sleep tops....or offer MVS thongs?? Think what you could do design-wise with the "V".

Tee shirt providers which offer TALL sizes always means they sell better stuff.
