It’s widely known that as far as conference t-shirt sizing goes there is no standard. It can make it downright impossible to get a shirt that fits the way you want. While we can’t work miracles on the t-shirt front, we can do our best to provide you with the information needed to make an educated decision when it comes to selecting your t-shirt size.
Following the excellent example set forth by WordCamp SF 2014, we’re offering three shirt styles this year. For women there are two options: a Bella slim cut and a Bella “Missy” cut. And the men’s and unisex option is the Canvas “Unisex” Tee.
Decide which style and size are right for you and update your registration by Sunday!
I am not enough of a fashionista to understand these diagrams—why are chest measurements <20"? what is “sweep”? and are these 100% cotton, or one of the blends?
I had to look that up too – the sweep is the circumference of the bottom hem. Fabric is 90% cotton 10% polyester.
Where do we update our sizes?
Cindy – you should have an email from WordCamp US 2015 with the subject line “Your Ticket to WordCamp US 2015” – there is a link in that email to manage your ticket purchase.
Hope this helps!

You can update your shirt size and any registration information by clicking on the link in your registration confirmation email. We also sent an email out to all GA attendees earlier today which has the link to update. An email will be going out to livestream + shirt ticket holders shortly.
Thanks!
The Bella sizing looks weird. Are we supposed to double the chest measurement or something? Also, I don’t see the Bella options in the dropdown when I go to update my T-shirt size in my Attendee Information. Am I in the wrong place?
Bella is the brand for all of the shirts. The slim fit and missy are the two women’s options listed.
Right, but when I go to select from the dropdown I still only see a single “Women’s (S-2x)” shirt option listed 🙁
I’m going to reach out to you in email so we can get that sorted for you.
Fixed! Thank you! 🙂
The sizing for the chest is actual seam-to-seam measurement, pretty much right at the armpit. Find a shirt that fits you well and measure it to find the number you’re looking for.
Thx for confirming!
Sorry, I do not see a menu item to take me to my registration information to add this t-shirt information you requested. Link please.
An email was sent to all GA ticket holders earlier today with a link to their individual registration information. Please check for that email. If you continue to have problems getting to your registration details please let me know and someone from the team will email you directly.
Is it just me, or is it hard to find where to update registration details?
apparently not, others were complaining also, but I found the link in my e-mail very easily. OTOH, the weird measurements confused me, so I made a best guess. Others have described it, so I will try to find a tape measure and a well-fitting shirt—or just assume that my best guess is good enough!
See you all in Philadelphia!
One of the best parts of WordCamp is receiving the t-shirt. I live for them. This is tough though. Which is more feminine? Do they run true to size?
For some reasons I will not be able to attend – can I buy a T-shirt though ? Cheers, Matt
You can purchase a Live Stream ticket plus t-shirt. The t-shirt will be shipped after the conference ends.
I have purchased a Live Stream ticket plus t-shirt.
I have not recieved a booking confirmation.
I’ll send you an email shortly.
I see that Bella & Canvas have a 4XL option for guys, but its not being made available for the WordCamp t-shirts?
Could that be made an option please?
