Why do you show the sleeve length when they are short sleeve shirts - can you show the chest size ?

I think the "size chart" shown for this shirt is a type of universal chart suggested by the shirt maker and/or Amazon, irrespective of whether it is short- or long-sleeved. When buying a shirt (and I've bought 100s of them), sizing is typically by neck and sleeve length. Only when a shirt is sold by the more broad S-M-L-etc. sizes do they get into chest measurements. Rather, in dress shirts, in addition to the sleeve and neck sizes, you will see they are full cut, tailored fit, slim fit, etc. There must be built-in presumptions that stated neck sizes are always associated with an accepted chest size, too. I take a 15 neck in a full-cut shirt, and I think that equates to a 38-40 chest, which is usually called a Medium. It works for me. I just scanned the Internet and there all kinds of neck/chest conversion charts, so I don't think that you can automatically presume that a given neck size for this Van Huesen shirt will surely be a given chest size. In my personal case, the 15" neck I ordered was quite roomy in the chest and torso, probably more a 40" chest than a 38-39. I doubt that you will be given a concrete answer from anyone regarding this specific shirt; it probably varies upon which factory and country of origin the production order went to! This may not be a helpful answer, but I think most people would order a shirt like this based on the given neck size, and just hope it fits well all over. Again, this is a full-cut shirt, so I think you can expect it to be on the roomier side.

My son is 5’8” and 210lbs with some bulk around the belly. What size neck would fit his overall size?

My husband is about the same weight and description but about 5' 11" and the 17 1/2 fits fine. I thoughts the actual shirt size was quite generous.

Great shirt, well made, needs longer shirt tail

Beautiful shirt, color is great and care is easy. I wish the shirt tail was a little longer to stay tucked in better.

Beautiful quality shirt

This is a beautiful shirt with the quality you would expect from Van Heusen. It was so carefully packaged that it took me ten minutes to find all of the straight pins that were used. It's a good thing it fit, because I could never have put those pins back in before returning. I got a 28% discount because of a spring sale, but I would gladly have paid full price for a shirt of this quality.

Good quality shirt, but significant sizing problems

Generally high marks for material and sewing quality, but has some sizing issues to be aware of. The neck seems about 2 sizes smaller than the listed size of 16.5". I've worn Van Heusen shirts size 16.5 neck for years, and haven't encountered this problem before. (I just measured with a tailor's tape, and I am still 16.5' neck size). But with this shirt, the neck button won't begin to reach the buttonhole. This won't matter much if you usually wear a short sleeve unbuttoned at the neck, but it means you willl not be able to wear a tie with this shirt. Also, the "Regular" fit is larger than one would expect, too big to be called a good fit. I recently bought this same shirt in a size 16, different color. It fit well, but the neck button could not be fastened on that shirt either. The material blend (65% recycled polyester and 35% cotton) is a good mix, generally wrinkle-free as advertised, but the packaging creases take a couple of wash and dry cycles (or ironing) to disappear. This light lavender color is very versatile, complelmenting a surprisingly wide range of pants or jacket colors. It[s hard to find off-the-rack shirts with the quality of Van Heusen anymore. I just wish they would get back to having relizable sizing.
