Measure at home in 2 minutes
You need a strip of paper (or a string or shoelace), a pen and a ruler.
- Take a string or a shoelace and mark on it the length you are considering, for example 22".
- Hold the two marks together at the back of your neck, wearing the kind of top you usually wear.
- Look in a mirror: the lowest point of the string is where the chain will sit.
- Too high or too low? Try 2" more or less: that is one size up or down.
Already own a chain you like? Lay it flat, clasp closed, and measure it end to end. A broad neck or chest makes every length sit a little higher.
No ruler? A bank card is 3.4" long: count how many fit along your strip.

He never needed more than this to be understood.
He has no need for noise. What he leaves out says more than what he shows. A minimalist cross in stainless steel, made of flat, squared bars with one polished face that catches the light. No stones, no engraving, no logo. Small, medium or large, on a matching box chain, in black, gold-tone or natural steel. Chain included.
A plain cross, honest steel
A plain cross is only as good as its metal. Natural stainless steel does not rust and does not turn your skin green. You can wear it in the shower or at the gym. Black and gold-tone are platings over the steel.
Chain included
Atlas never explained himself. Neither does he. Keep it simple.
Details & specs
MaterialStainless steel
Chain styleBox chain
Chain length24 in (60cm)
Small1.2 x 0.7 in (30 x 18 mm)
Medium1.7 x 1.0 in (43 x 25 mm)
Large2.1 x 1.2 in (53 x 30 mm)
FinishBlack, gold-tone or steel
The cross and the box chain are stainless steel, which stands up to daily wear and does not rust, so the necklace stays on through showers and workouts. The bars are flat and squared off, with a polished face that reflects light in one clean line rather than scattering it. No stones, no engraving, no logo.
Three finishes: natural steel, plus black and gold-tone, which are plated colors over the steel. The compact box chain keeps the pendant centered and hanging straight, so the cross stays where you put it through the day. The design is unisex and works on any frame; the size you pick decides how much of it is seen.
How to wear it
With a white or gray tee, it does the most: one line of metal on plain cotton. Under an open-collar shirt, the small or medium size sits neatly inside the placket for dinners and travel. Match the finish to your watch and rings, or wear black with dark layers for a low-contrast look that still shows its shape.
Choosing your size
Three pendant sizes: small at 1.2 x 0.7 in (30 x 18 mm), medium at 1.7 x 1.0 in (43 x 25 mm) and large at 2.1 x 1.2 in (53 x 30 mm). Small is the everyday choice for slim builds and buttoned shirts; medium works on most frames; large makes a clear statement on a broad chest or over a tee. All three hang from the same box chain. It measures 24 in (60cm), with no extender.
Why this piece

It does not rust or turn his skin green, a practical choice for a piece he keeps on all week.
For himself or as a gift
For a father, a partner or a brother who keeps things simple. Medium in steel suits most men if you are unsure, and you have 30 days to return it.

Questions
Can the flat bar cross stay on through showers and workouts?
Yes. The cross and its box chain are stainless steel, which does not rust. Put it on after lotions and sprays so the single polished face stays clean.
Which size should I buy as a gift?
Medium, 1.7 in (43 mm), is the balanced choice for most men. Go small for a subtle look under shirts, large for a bolder pendant over a tee.
Are the black and gold-tone colors durable?
They are plated finishes made for everyday wear. Keep perfume and cleaners off the cross and wipe it with a soft cloth to keep the color even.
How big are the three sizes in real life?
Small is 30 x 18 mm, about the height of a thumb's top joint; medium is 43 x 25 mm, about the diameter of a golf ball; large is 53 x 30 mm, the height of a credit card's short side.
Is this cross unisex?
Yes. The design is unisex and works on any frame; the size you pick decides how much of it shows.
Does it have any engraving or logo?
No. It is plain: flat, squared bars with one polished face, and no stones, engraving or logo.
How does the black minimal cross look with dark clothes?
Low-key but readable. Black is a plated color over the stainless steel, and with dark layers it gives a low-contrast look that still shows the cross's squared outline.
Does the cross stay centered?
Yes. The compact box chain keeps the pendant centered and hanging straight through the day, whichever size you choose.
Black cross necklace for men
Black-tone crosses with chain: the Minimalist Cross Necklace in Steel in black, the Risen Christ Cross Necklace and the Engraved Crucifix Necklace, 24 in, all on a 24 in box chain or similar. Black is a plated finish over steel. See Black Cross Necklace.
Simple cross necklace for a man, nothing too big
A flat, clean cross in a small size: the Minimalist Cross Necklace in Steel comes in small, medium or large, in black, gold-tone or steel, with a box chain included. The Cross Necklace with Zircon, Titanium Steel is a beveled cross with a small line of zircon, chain included. Both stay on in the shower. See Men's Cross Necklaces & Pendants.
Cross necklace for a man to wear under his shirt
Pick a small, flat cross on a thin chain so it does not show through fabric: the Minimalist Cross Necklace in Steel in its small size, or the CZ Cross Necklace in Titanium Steel on an 18 in cable chain. Both include the chain and stay on in the shower.
Gold cross necklace for my son's First Communion
A modest, classic cross suits the occasion: the Minimalist Cross Necklace in Steel in small, gold-tone, with box chain, or the Saint Benedict Medal Necklace in gold-tone. Both are steel, so he can wear them every day afterwards. Add the Light Box to present it.
Silver cross necklace for a man: what do you mean by silver-tone steel?
Our silver-tone crosses are stainless or titanium steel in its natural color. Sterling silver is not something Atlas sells. The upside is that steel does not rust and does not turn skin green, so it can stay on in the shower. Try Minimalist Cross Necklace in Steel (small, medium or large, box chain included) or Geometric Cross Necklace in Stainless Steel (1.1 x 1.9 in, 20 in chain).
Flat bar cross or cast cross pendant: which looks right on a man's chest?
A flat bar cross is clean and modern, a cast cross carries more detail. For flat bars try Minimalist Cross Necklace in Steel, with no stones and no engraving, in three sizes. For a cast look, Risen Christ Cross Necklace has a cut-out figure and Celtic Cross Pendant in Stainless Steel has deep knotwork, sold alone or with a box chain.
Which stainless steel cross pendants come in different sizes?
Two do. Minimalist Cross Necklace in Steel comes small, medium or large, with a box chain, in natural steel, black or gold-tone. Cylindrical Cross Necklace, Steel comes small or large on the same 24 in chain, about 15 g for the small necklace and 17 g for the large. Pick the larger size if he wears it over a tee.
Why would a man choose a steel cross over a silver one?
Steel is chosen for daily wear: it does not rust, does not turn skin green and can stay on in the shower, the gym and the sea. Sterling silver is not something Atlas sells. A steel cross like Minimalist Cross Necklace in Steel (three sizes) or Figaro Chain Cross Necklace in Titanium Steel (Figaro chain included) is easy to wear every day.
