How to Measure Yourself

Follow these steps to get accurate measurements for the perfect fit. We recommend having someone assist you for the most precise results.

1Chest/Bust

Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape measure level and snug but not tight.

For women, measure around the fullest part of the bust.

2Waist

Measure around your natural waistline, which is typically the narrowest part of your torso.

Don't suck in your stomach - breathe normally for an accurate measurement.

3Hips

Measure around the fullest part of your hips, typically 7-9 inches below your natural waistline.

Keep your feet together and measure over your undergarments.

4Shoulders

Measure from the edge of one shoulder to the edge of the other, across your back.

Have someone help you with this measurement for accuracy.

5Sleeve Length

Measure from your shoulder point down to your wrist bone, with your arm slightly bent.

Measure over a well-fitting shirt for the most accurate result.

6Inseam

Measure from the crotch seam down to the desired hem length along the inside of your leg.

Use pants that fit you well as a reference point.
