According to website Factory Weights, the average UK male neck size is 38cm (or about 15″). I’m thinking about this because I’d like to buy a second black shirt for the upcoming tour. The challenge is that my neck is over 17″ around and so finding a suitable shirt on the high street is near impossible, particularly if I want to avoid one that hangs off me like a tent.

I suppose at least I can claim to be above average…
