MEASURING
It is very important to check the description and the size chart for each garment to ensure the best fit and to take into
account your own personal preference with regards to looseness or tightness of your clothing. Find your most comfortable
fitting garment style for each item to measure.
Choose your own T-Shirt/Hoodie/Blouse/Vest/Pants you like to wear in terms of fit. Lay the garment flat on the table face up
and take the measurements using a tape measure. Do not use rulers.
For T-Shirt/Hoodie/Blouse/Vest
Chest: measure the width across the chest of the shirt - 1 inch below the armhole (multiply by 2).
Body length: measure from the center back top of neck to the hem.
Bottom: measure the width at the bottom of the shirt (multiply by 2).
For Pants
Waist: measure the width on waist line of the pants (multiply by 2).
Hips: measure the widest part between the waist and the crotch of the pants (multiply by 2).
Inseam: measure from the crotch to the bottom of the pant leg.
