For Women |
Your chest measurement is
the circumference of your chest at it’s largest point. Measure this by
standing up straight with your arms out. Then wrap a measuring tape
around your body under your arm pits and across the breast bone with arms
relaxed. Make sure the tape measure is parallel with the floor. Having
someone else take the measurement makes it much easier and accurate.
For women, measure around the shoulder blades, under the armpits and
over the fullest part of the bust. |
Your waist measurement is
the circumference of your waist where your body has a natural crease.
Measure this by standing in front of a mirror
facing it, then bend to one side. Where your body creases is your
natural waist. Wrap a measuring tape around your natural waist line while keeping the
tape measure parallel with the floor. This is your waist measurement. Note for those with a belly or gut, measure around the largest section.
Using the belly/gut measurement for sizing usually results in better fit
for those with a belly/gut. Having someone else take the measurement
makes it much easier and accurate. |
Your sleeve measurement
is distance from the center back of the neck, over point of the
shoulder, down the outside of the arm to the wrist. Measure this by
having your arm relax at your side and slightly bent. Measure from
the center back of the neck,
measure over your shoulder and elbow points, and end at the wrist bone.
Having someone else take the measurement makes it much easier and
accurate. |
The inseam is the total
length of the inside seam from your crotch to your ankle. To take this,
stand
straight, but relax. Measure the distance from the crotch to the ankle.
Having someone else take the measurement makes it much easier and
accurate. |
Your hip measurement is the
total circumference of your hip’s at their largest point. Measure this
by wrapping a measuring tape around your body at hip level. Keep the tape measure
parallel to the floor, and relax when taking the measurement.
Having someone else take the measurement makes it much easier and
accurate. |
