Choosing a size for a protruding tummy
For men: to choose the right size for bottom garments, use the hip measurement, but account for the option of wearing a belt.
Option 1: If a belt is worn underneath the protruding tummy in a bottom garment, then the size is chosen according to the hip measurement (without accounting for the protrusion). The waist is measured exactly where the belt is worn.
Option 2: If a belt is worn around the protruding tummy in a bottom garment, then the size is chosen according to the hip measurement plus the tummy protrusion. The waist is measured exactly where the belt is worn.
To sew this t-shirt, choose knit fabrics with the following properties:
- medium-weight, soft, medium stretch

- the following fabrics are recommended: cotton jersey, interlock knits, pique, lightweight French terry.
The t-shirt in the photo is made in cotton jersey. This fabric is medium-weight and has very little stretch. The fabric content is cotton (95%) and elastane (5%).
