Polo shirt

A regular fit polo shirt should sit smoothly on the shoulders and the fabric should sit lightly on (not cling to) the chest and torso, and allow comfortable movement without too much excess fabric. There is light ease for movement and a bit of air between the shirt and body.

T-shirt

A regular-fit shirt is designed to sit comfortably on the body without clinging. The fabric drapes smoothly over the chest and torso with a small amount of ease or looseness, and there’s enough room to move, sit, and reach without pulling at the seams. It follows the body’s shape without being tight or overly fitted.

Trousers

Trousers or pants should be sitting on the trouser waistline, above the hips.

For body shapes with wider hips, trousers might feel looser around the waist. It's recommended to wear a belt or use side adjusters if they are available. This ensures that there is enough room around the hips for movement.
