I have no idea what in the world a 1MX shirt is. There are no measurements on that.

Neck
Width
Length

That's all you need.

It has been my experience that the only measurements that regular department store dress shirts provide are neck and arm length. I'm pretty sure my measurements are:

neck: 15.5
arm: 32/33
chest: 36
waist: 30

Unfortunately, all the dress shirts I've seen have only had measurements for the neck and arm, no chest or waist.

Then you need to tell that to the person helping you. You may want to look in the kids section. ;)

Not trying to slam, but men's sizes may not fit you. Walk into a men's warehouse and see what they can hook you up with.

But but but... :(

Which one of my measurements is considered "kid" sized? Is my chest to waist to arm ratio weird?

Arms are a little short for a 15.5" neck though I think I've seen 32/33 shirts at that neck size.

Your chest really doesn't seem that small especially for that height. I'm 61" 173 lbs and I just measured myself with a 38" chest. You're only 2" below that. My waist is just slightly larger than yours too.

Narrow shoulders?

I should add that I have no problems at all fitting into dress shirts. Just get athletic cut. Regular cut shirts keep getting bigger and bigger for all the fatties walking around.
