How to measure
-
A
Chest
Around the fullest part of the chest, under the arms, level and snug.
-
B
Waist
Around the natural waistline, just above the navel; keep it slightly loose.
-
C
Collar
Around the base of the neck; slip one finger under the tape for room.
-
D
Sleeve Length
From the shoulder tip down to the wrist, elbow slightly bent.
-
E
Shirt Length
From the top of the shoulder by the neck down to where the shirt should end.
For the truest fit, measure over the kind of layer you'll actually wear, and keep the tape flat.
