Parsing Ralph Lauren shirt labels
I have become acquainted with the various fits of RL button-up shirts. From big to small: Yarmouth, Classic, Custom, Slim.
Usually this is indicated on the label, like so: https://www.ebay.com/itm/166594540684
What should I infer when it isn't? This listing title says "classic fit", but the label just says "100% cotton": https://www.ebay.com/itm/226004629301
What sayeth the experts of MFA?

2nd listing has a classic fit label
When in doubt though, go by the garment measurements. Measure the pit to pit of a shirt fit you like and look for that in the listings
The first shirt has a p2p of 24" and the second has a p2p of 23.5" so I'd look for measurements around there if that's the shirt fit you like
FWIW I'm a fan of the Yarmouth fit OCBDs
Oops...posted the wrong listing. Sorry
Fixed above. Here is the label pic.
The new, correct listing doesn't have measurements. This is fairly typical for RL shirts.
Just contact the seller to ask
I do that all the time, never had an issue
there is also Blake, which is on the looser side
