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. |

Having someone else take the measurement makes it much easier and accurate. |
