Red Rising Size Chart: What You Actually Get When You Order

Chest measurements, sticker die-cut dimensions, and metal poster sizing for the Red Rising store - plus the two fit quirks that trip people up on the Cassius and Dark Age tees.

Overview

Most size charts are three rows of numbers with no context. This one answers a narrower question: if you order from the official Red Rising store, what actually shows up in the mail?

Sizing questions spike for two reasons. The tees carry oversized prints - the Cassius au Bellona Crest with "My Honor Remains" stretches wide across the chest, and the Dark Age Reaper of Mars graphic sits high toward the shoulders. A print that large changes how a size reads on your body. The second reason is stickers. Die-cut vinyl follows the outline of the artwork, not a neat rectangle, so the number on the listing isn't the same kind of number as a t-shirt chest measurement.

Getting this right matters more than usual right now. Readers working through the saga ahead of Red God keep landing on the store for the first time, and the gifting season means more people buying a size for someone else. Both groups need the same thing: measurements, not vibes.

Details

T-shirt sizing on the $29.99 tees

The Cassius au Bellona Crest and the Dark Age Reaper of Mars tee use the same unisex crew blank. These are garment measurements, taken flat, not body measurements. Lay a tee you already like flat on a table, measure pit to pit, double it, and match that to the chest column.

SizeChest (in)Body length (in)Sleeve (in)
S34 - 36288
M38 - 40298.5
L42 - 44309
XL46 - 48319.5
2XL50 - 523210
3XL54 - 563310.5

Two practical notes. The Dark Age Reaper tee runs a full size large for anyone who likes a fitted look - the print placement means the shoulders sit wider than the tag suggests. And because the Cassius crest print runs so close to the seams, sizing down can pull the artwork tight across the chest and distort the lettering on "My Honor Remains." If you're between sizes, go up.

Sticker sizing, honestly

The Blood on the Clocktower Inspired Fortune Teller Red Herring | Red Rising is a $7.00 die-cut vinyl sticker, and the longest edge is the only dimension that matters. Here's why the artwork makes that tricky: in Blood on the Clocktower, the Fortune Teller learns a "yes" between two players - one is the Demon, and one is the Red Herring, a good player who registers as evil. The joke only lands if the sticker is legible at small size, which is why the die-cut hugs the fortune teller's silhouette rather than sitting in a square frame.

Measure your target before ordering multiples. A laptop lid takes a full-size die-cut comfortably. A 32oz water bottle does not - the curve eats about a third of the visible artwork. Flat surfaces like a hard-shell case or a notebook cover are where these read best.

The metal poster

The Darrow O'Lykos 3D textured metal poster at $19.99 is a wall plate, not a paper print. The textured surface is what gives the Reaper silhouette its depth, and that texture only reads from a few feet back. Confirm the dimension line on the listing before you plan a frame or a gallery wall - metal art plates get mounted directly with standoffs far more often than they get framed.

Care and shrinkage

Cotton blends shrink roughly 2 - 3% on a first hot wash. Cold water, inside out, tumble low. The $7.00 vinyl stickers are rated for indoor use - dishwashers and direct sun will dull the print faster than anything else.

Where to Buy

Everything here ships from the official Red Rising store. If you only want stickers, the Red Rising sticker collection keeps them in one place instead of buried between apparel listings. For apparel and wall art together, explore the full collection - the tees, poster, and stickers all sit in the same catalog.

One thing worth doing before checkout: cross-check the size chart on each individual product page against the table above. Blanks occasionally change, and the listing is always the final word.

FAQ

Do the Red Rising t-shirts run true to size?

Yes, with a caveat. The unisex crew blanks are standard sizing, but the Cassius au Bellona Crest and Dark Age Reaper tees carry wide chest prints that make the fit feel roomier than the tag implies. If you're between sizes, size up - especially on the Cassius tee, where a tight fit distorts the crest lettering.

How big is the Blood on the Clocktower sticker?

It's a die-cut vinyl sticker cut to the artwork outline, so the longest edge is the useful measurement rather than a square dimension. Check the product listing for the exact figure. As a rule, die-cuts at this price point sit comfortably on a laptop lid and crowd a curved water bottle.

Is the Darrow poster actually metal?

Yes. It's a 3D textured metal art plate, not a paper or canvas print. The texture is what gives the Reaper image its depth, and it's designed to be mounted flat on a wall. Check the listing's dimension line before planning a frame.

Can I put the stickers on a water bottle?

You can, but expect the curve to hide part of the design and hand-wash only. Flat, indoor surfaces like laptop lids, notebooks, and hard cases hold the print far longer.

Will the tees shrink?

Expect 2 - 3% on a first hot wash. Cold water, inside out, low heat keeps both the cotton and the print in shape.

If you're mostly here for the small stuff, the Blood on the Clocktower Inspired Fortune Teller Red Herring | Red Rising is a reasonable place to start - cheap enough to test the print quality before committing to a tee. - -
