Ensuring the perfect fit for your jacket and pants is essential for comfort and confidence. To help you find the right size, we’ve put together this comprehensive size guide. For accurate measurements, we recommend using a soft tailor tape measure. Follow these simple instructions to get the best fit possible:
1. Collar
To measure your collar size, wrap the measuring tape around your neck, positioning it about one inch above where your neck meets your shoulders. Ensure there’s no gap between your neck and the tape measure, and it’s positioned snugly but not too tight. Keep the tape measure level around your neck, avoiding any angles or twists. After wrapping the tape, insert one finger between your neck and the tape to allow for comfortable movement. This slight allowance ensures the collar won’t be too tight.
2. Shoulder Width
For an exact width measurement, it’s essential to maintain a straight back while allowing your shoulders to relax naturally. To get an accurate measurement, position the tape measure from the tip of one shoulder to the other, ensuring it touches the bottom of the collar.
3. Sleeves Length
When determining the length of sleeves for your jacket, start by ensuring the measuring tape is positioned correctly. Begin at the shoulder seam and follow it down along the outside of your bent arm until you reach your wrist, where you want the shirt cuff to finish
4. Bicep
To measure your bicep, it’s important to have your arms completely relaxed, hanging loosely by your sides. To ensure proper fit, measure around the thickest part of your bicep, typically located about 2 inches (5.1 cm) below the armpit. This measurement point ensures that your jacket fits comfortably and allows for ease of movement. Remember to insert a finger width for added comfort.
5. Wrist
6. Armpit
7. Chest
To determine your chest circumference accurately, start by wrapping the tape measure around your chest, positioning it just under your armpits. Ensure a snug yet comfortable fit as you secure the tape around the widest part of your chest, often above or at the level of your nipples
8. Waist
To measure your waist accurately, begin by holding the end of the tape measure at your navel and circling it around your waistline. Ensure that the measuring tape remains parallel to the floor and fits snugly around your torso without causing any discomfort or digging into your skin. Leave a finger width’s space for added comfort.
9. Stomach
10. Pant Waist
Begin by locating the top of your hip bone. From there, wrap the tape measure around your body, ensuring it aligns with your belly button. Maintain a consistent level and ensure the tape is neither too tight nor loose. Additionally, verify that the tape remains straight, particularly at the back. It’s crucial to leave a slight allowance, roughly the width of a finger, for optimal comfort and fit.
11. Above Your Hips
Position the tape measure around your bare stomach, just above the upper hip bone. Keep the measuring tape parallel to the floor for accuracy. The tape measure must fit snugly against your body without causing discomfort or compressing the skin excessively. To allow for ease of movement and ensure a comfortable fit, remember to insert a finger width.
12. Hips
For measuring your hips accurately, start by removing any outer garments and stand with your feet together. Then, wrap a soft measuring tape snugly around the widest part of your hips. Ensure the tape remains straight for precise measurements. Your hip measurement is where the end of the tape meets the remaining length.
13. Crotch
When gauging the crotch area for pants, begin at the waist and bring the tape measure down under your crotch, then up around the curve of your buttocks, and back up to the waist at the back. It’s important to account for the curves of the belly and buttocks in this measurement to ensure a proper fit; otherwise, the pants may feel too snug.
14. Thigh
To measure your thigh accurately, determine the circumference of its fullest part. Wrap a tape measure around your thigh, starting from the front, circling around to the back, and then back around to the front. Ensure the tape measure is snug but not tight for precise measurements. Remember to leave a finger width of space for comfort and flexibility
15. Knee
16. Calf
To measure your calf, start by finding the fullest part of your calf muscle. Then, wrap a soft measuring tape around this section, ensuring it’s snug but not overly tight. Take note of the circumference where the end of the tape meets the starting point
17. Pants Length
Measure from the top of your pants waist and follow along the side pant seam until you reach the bottom of your pants or approximately 1 inch from the ground. It’s important to maintain a straight standing position while taking this measurement for accuracy.
