The front and back length of a shirt will be affected by the body shape. In addition to the difference in body shape between men and women, the front and back length of shirts will also be different due to special characteristics such as chest and hunchback.
Fit refers to whether the shirt conforms to the concave and convex characteristics of human body shape, so that the hem of the shirt is balanced up and down, the body is flat and there will be no sag.
Of course, different design requirements and functional requirements will lead to different styles of shirts, and will also affect the front and back length of shirts.
The following details:

Body shape affects the length of clothes before and after.
Theoretically speaking, if a shirt needs to ensure the balance of the hem, the length of the front and back waist sections of the human body should be basically the same from the side, but the length of the front and back waist sections is different between men and women because of the difference in body shape.
Body shape difference between men and women
The male has a flat chest and developed back, measured from the neck to the front and back waist line, which is 2.5cm longer than the front waist line.
The female figure has a prominent chest and a slightly flat back, which makes the difference between the front and back waist sections smaller, and sometimes the front waist section is slightly longer than the back waist section.

In practice, making plate according to the same length of women's front and back waist can basically meet the structural requirements of fit clothing.
As shown in the following figure, the back waist section of men's shirts is 2.5cm more than the front waist section, and the length of the back body (measured from the middle of the back collar to the hem) is basically the same as that of the front body (measured from the neck side to the hem).

According to this measurement standard, the front length of the coat (measured from the collar side to the hem) is longer than the back length (measured from the middle of the back collar to the hem) by a back collar depth.
Special physical differences
The above differences are still aimed at normal body types, but for special body types, the front and back lengths of shirts are different.
If the front length is affected by the chest and abdomen, it needs to be lengthened, which may cause the front length of the shirt to be equal to or even greater than the back length;
For people with hunchback and hunchback, it is necessary to lengthen the back length of the shirt, which will cause the back length of the shirt to grow longer than the front length.

Fit affects the length of clothes before and after.
In view of the fact that the back piece is 2.5cm more than the front waist, which is not suitable for all shirt styles, in the men's wear structure:
When there is a back tilt of 2.5-3cm, if the shoulder dart and waist dart are added, the garment will fit better, and the back piece will basically conform to the shape of the male back, and then the difference between the front waist and the back waist is about 2.5cm.
The length of the back garment (from the middle of the back collar to the hem) and the length of the front garment (from the collar side to the hem) are basically the same (as shown in the left picture).

However, if the back is not left-handed, and the clothes are required to fit, then the back waist section is 2.5cm more than the front waist section, and the back piece will be easily hung. At this time, the back piece needs to be lengthened.
In this case, in order to ensure the balance of the hem, the back coat will be longer than the front coat (see the right picture above).
However, due to many factors such as style and design, specific problems need to be analyzed. The height difference between the front and rear shoulders on the right in the above picture is 1.3, which is only applicable to this style, not all shirts are universal.

Style affects the length of clothes before and after.
This is easy to understand. In order to meet certain design requirements or functional requirements, it is also possible to deliberately make the front and rear lengths different for special styles.

Functionally, for example, in order to prevent the shirt from coming off the trousers when sitting down, the back coat is sometimes made longer on purpose. Especially for formal shirts, the length of the back can be 2~3cm longer than that of the front.

To sum up, except for the special shirt style, the length of the back (from the middle of the back collar to the hem) and the front (from the neck side to the hem) are the same for shirts that are more in line with the characteristics of male body shape.
Loose men's shirts will be longer if they are not hung at the back. In addition, it depends on the size. The front of the big belly is longer, and the back of the hunchback is longer.
