New What's the deal with those theoretical proportions?
I have a hard time finding a shirt that fits the rest of my with a 16 1/5 (or larger) neck. I don't look like a guy with a large neck and I don't do major physical work, although I am in halfway decent shape. I can't seriously beleive my neck is unusualy large for my size.

So most of my shirts are either kind of baggy or I have to leave the top button undone.

New Nothing wrong with you.
The people who design shirts must have a preponderance of pencil necks on staff and assume they are representative of the the population at large. Most everybody I know of near *normal* proportions complains about exactly the same thing. I suppose that the shirt manufacturers could be getting kickbacks from all the tailors needed to get a shirt to fit comfortably.
When I visit the aquarium, the same thought keeps running through my mind;
Leemmmooonnn, Buuttteerrr, MMMmmmmmm good!
