How to Measure for Shirts, Jerseys, and Hoodies
1. Chest Measurement
- Wrap a measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest, just under your arms.
- Keep the tape snug but not too tight.
- Record the measurement in inches or centimeters.
2. Waist Measurement
- Measure around your natural waistline, which is usually just above your belly button.
- Ensure the tape is parallel to the floor and not twisted.
3. Shoulder Width
- Measure from the edge of one shoulder to the other, across the back.
- This helps determine how well the garment will sit on your shoulders.
4. Sleeve Length
- Start at the center of the back of your neck and measure down to your wrist.
- For short sleeves, stop at the elbow or desired sleeve length.
5. Torso Length (for Jerseys)
- Measure from the base of your neck down to your waist.
- This ensures the jersey length covers your torso adequately without being too long or short.
How to Measure for Jackets
1. Bust/Chest Measurement
- Similar to shirts, measure around the fullest part of your chest. Add extra room if you plan to layer clothing underneath.
2. Arm Length
- Measure from the shoulder seam down to your wrist for full sleeves or the elbow for cropped styles.
3. Jacket Length
- Measure from the base of your neck down to where you want the jacket to end (e.g., hip level).
How to Measure for Pants, Trousers, and Shorts
1. Waist Measurement
- Measure around your natural waistline, keeping the tape snug but comfortable.
2. Hip Measurement
- Measure around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks.
3. Inseam Measurement
- Measure from the top of your inner thigh down to your ankle for pants or knee for shorts.
4. Thigh Measurement
- Measure around the widest part of your thigh. This is especially important for athletic pants that require flexibility.
5. Out Seam Measurement
- Measure from the top of your waistband down to the bottom hem of the pant leg.
Tips for Taking Accurate Measurements
- Use a Soft Measuring Tape: Avoid using rigid rulers or strings. A soft tape conforms better to your body shape.
- Wear Fitted Clothing: Take measurements over thin clothing or directly against your skin for precision.
- Stand Naturally: Avoid sucking in your stomach or puffing out your chest. Stand relaxed and breathe normally.
- Double-Check Measurements: Re-measure each area to ensure accuracy.Â
