I don't think your choice of sizes makes sense. Using data I collected
from the UCC for 48 T-shirts, I gathered the following (and these
T-shirts are quite large for their size):
S
                                   2
M
                                  12
L
                                  17
XL
                                   9
XXL
                                   4

Applying a scale factor of 14 and rounding down to 600 T-shirts gives:
S
                                  24
M
                                 164
L
                                 234
XL
                                 124
XXL
                                  54

For women, you may want to consider getting some Smalls too. I don't
have a lot of good sample data for that.

People can always wear a T-shirt one size too large, they find it hard
to fit into one that is one size too small. I was an XL even before I
put on weight, most GNOME t-shirts are often too small even if they are
also XL.
