There are not only ‘slim fit’, but also ‘relaxed’ or the classic style that we have always seen.
The ‘slim fit’, in this case in the shirts, it is a more fitted style than what would be worn with a normal suit. They are designed with the arms and torso more closed, in addition to being closer to the body, to highlight the figure. Slim and athletic men are the ones who are most favored with shirts of this type.
Nevertheless, do not forget that you always have to wear the correct sizefor garments of this style such as those of a classic cut, because although what is intended is to highlight that more athletic body, it cannot give the feeling that it is going to break at any moment.
