Editor’s Note
Eight years of reading comments on shoulder-related posts has taught me one thing: most people who identify sloped shoulders on themselves are actually seeing narrow shoulders, which is a completely different conversation in Kibbe’s system. Slope is about angle; width is about bone. The conflation trips up even experienced typers, and honestly, it trips up a lot of the typing advice circulating on Pinterest and Reddit too. What I find quietly fascinating is that David Kibbe himself rarely leads with shoulders as a defining feature — that emphasis came largely from the community building frameworks around his work. So I’m genuinely curious: when you first started exploring your type, did you fixate on shoulders, or did something else pull your attention first?
Okay so I’ve been trying to figure out my Kibbe type for like two years and the sloped shoulders thing finally clicked for me reading this. I’m in Columbus and honestly thought sloped shoulders automatically meant Romantic but it’s way more nuanced than that! My takeaway is to actually measure the angle instead of just eyeballing it in the mirror — I’ve been doing that wrong this whole time. Quick question though: does posture affect how you asses this? Mine is terrible lol.
