The options and their limits
Four sizes, each limited to the shirts in the box. When the mediums are gone, that option closes on the form or shows as full with a waiting list.
In this example Navy, medium is full and two people are waiting for it.
48 places in total. That is more than the free plan covers. Setup tells you before you share the form, and unlocking costs $12, paid once.

Good to know
What Choice Limit does and does not do for this kind of form. Read the help page for more.
One item per response
Each response takes one place in the option it picks, so one response is one shirt. Someone who wants two fills in the form twice.
Size and colour in one option
Choice Limit counts each question on its own. A Size question and a separate Colour question would be counted apart, so they could not stop you selling more navy mediums than you have. Put both in one option instead.
A second shirt in the same response
A second size question gets its own limits, which do not share stock with the first. Ask people to fill in the form again instead.
Payment
Choice Limit does not take payments. Collect money the way you do now.
