How each measurement is taken on a top (1)(2)(3)(4)

Tops

Tees, sweatshirts & outerwear

  1. 1
    Body lengthFrom the highest point of the shoulder, straight down to the bottom hem.
  2. 2
    Shoulder widthStraight across from one shoulder seam to the other.
  3. 3
    Pit to pitStraight across from armpit seam to armpit seam. This is a one-side measurement, so double it for the full chest.

Bottoms

Pants & shorts

  2. 6
    InseamFrom the crotch seam down the inside of the leg to the hem.
  3. 7
    OutseamFrom the top of the waistband down the outside of the leg to the hem.

Finding your size

A

Start with a piece you love. Lay a top or pair of pants that fits you well on a flat surface and measure it the same way.

B

Compare on the product page. Open "Sizing" on any product with measurements. Your selected size is highlighted, and you can switch between inches and CM.

C

Sizes vary by brand. An M from one label can fit like an L from another, so trust the measurements over the tag.
