How to Measure
Chest
Measure the total circumference of your chest at its fullest point. Ensure that the tape is horizontal when measuring.
Waist
Place your hands on your hips and bend to the side. The indent on your side as you bend is your natural waist. Measure the total circumference at this point.
Waist - Jeans
Measure your circumference at a point about 2 inches (5cm) below the belly button.
Hip
Stand with your feet 6” (15cm) apart. Measure the total circumference at the fullest point of your hip.
Sleeve Length
With your elbow slightly bent, starting at your middle neck bone, measure to the point of your shoulder and down to your wrist bone. Or take a shirt that fits well and take the same measurement.
Inseam
Stand with your feet 6” (15cm) apart. Measure from the top of the leg/crotch to below the ankle. Or take a pair of pants that fit well and take the same measurement.
