How To Measure

Measure body using fabric tape measure or use string and measure the string.

  1. 1. Chest

    Measure the total circumference of your chest at its fullest point, just under your armpit.

  2. 2. 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.

  3. 3. Waist (Jeans)

    Measure your circumference at a point about two inches below the belly button.

  4. 4. Hip

    Stand with your feet 6” apart. Measure the total circumference at the fullest point of your hip.

  5. 5. 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.

  6. 6. Inseam

    Stand with your feet 6” 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.
