Athletic Fit
Athletic fit is a cut with more room across shoulders, chest and arms and a slight taper toward the waist.
Why it matters
Standard cuts are made for average proportions. On trained bodies, they’re often tight up top and hang like a sack below. Athletic fit solves exactly that — without restricting movement.
Athletic fit sits between regular and slim — more room up top, less below.
Note: athletic fit is not “muscle fit”. It should fit, not look shrink-wrapped.
