I am 5ft 8 inches and weigh about 172 pounds. I ordered a X-large and this shirt fits wonderfully! It is so soft and very comfy! I have washed it twice now and the fabric holds up nicely. I do not put shirts like this in the dryer, i use a drying rack, so I can't speak for how well it does in the dryer. I have purchased this shirt in every color available. LOVE!!!!
