Avirex Tops Sizing Guide: How They Fit & What Size To Buy

Avirex tops at Top Floor Gallery are designed as clean, fitted everyday essentials. They’re not oversized or boxy — instead, they sit closer to a base layer with a slightly longer cut and a more refined feel.

They also come in a range of different styles, including henleys, short sleeve tees, long sleeves, v-necks, and vest variations, all built on the same fitted silhouette.

If you’re unsure about sizing, this guide breaks it down simply.

How Avirex tops fit

Across all styles, the fit is consistent: tight, structured, and slightly longer in the body.

They’re made from either waffle or ribbed cotton, both with stretch, which helps them sit close to the body without feeling stiff.

What to expect:

• Tight fit through chest, shoulders, and arms
• Slightly longer body length than a standard tee
• Slim, clean silhouette
• Stretch waffle or ribbed fabric depending on style
• Designed more as a fitted base layer than a relaxed top

On first wear, they’ll feel snug — especially around the arms and chest — but the fabric has enough give to stay comfortable.

Should you size up?

This really depends on how you want your tops to fit. For a more fitted look, stay true to size. Some people will prefer sizing up one size.

Simple breakdown:

• True to size → very fitted, body-hugging
• Size up → slightly less fitted  
• Size down → generally too tight

If you’re between sizes or don’t like a tight fit, just go up.

Different styles in the range

One of the key things about this Avirex range is the variety of silhouettes:

• Henley tops
• Short sleeve tees
• Long sleeve tops
• V-neck styles
• Vest variations

Even though the cuts change, the fit stays consistent — fitted through the body with a longer line.

Fabric

Depending on the piece, you’ll get either waffle or ribbed cotton.

• Waffle cotton — textured, lighter/thinner fabric and more breathable (35% cotton / 65% polyester)
• Ribbed cotton — thicker, warmer and more body-contouring (95% cotton / 5% polyester) 

Both fabrics have stretch and hold their shape well over time, making them reliable for everyday wear.

Compared to regular tees

Compared to a standard streetwear tee, Avirex tops are:

• More fitted through the body
• Longer in length
• More structured overall
• Better suited for layering or clean outfits

They don’t drape loosely — they sit close and stay sharp.

How to style them

Because of the fitted silhouette, they work best when balanced with looser pieces.

Try pairing with:

• Baggy denim
• Wide cargos
• Relaxed trousers

They also work well layered under jackets, hoodies, or overshirts.

Final thoughts

Avirex tops are simple but well-built everyday pieces that come in multiple styles, all sharing the same tight, longer-line fit in waffle or ribbed fabrics.

If you’re buying your first pair, sizing up is usually the safest option for comfort while still keeping the clean, fitted look they’re designed for.
