I have many T shirts from prior to the 90's that are size large.
Now, a large drowns me.
maybe I'm shrinking.
You're probably the same size - clothing sizing has inflated as Americans have. An Esquire writer measured men's size 36 pants, and found they ran 36 - 41 inches! A Misses size 12 in 1958 became a size 4 when the standards were changed in 1995.
