The Perfect Fit, Every Time

Our made-to-measure process starts with accurate measurements. Use this guide to take yours correctly, or let our FitQuiz walk you through it.

How to Take Your Measurements

1 Use a soft measuring tape (the kind used by tailors). A rigid tape will give inaccurate results.
2 Wear well-fitting underwear or minimal clothing so the tape sits against your body.
3 Stand in a relaxed, upright posture — do not suck in your stomach or puff out your chest.
4 Have a friend take your measurements where possible — self-measurement can introduce errors.
5 For each measurement, make sure the tape is snug but not tight. You should be able to slide two fingers under the tape.
6 Take each measurement twice and use the larger value if they differ.
7 Not sure? Our FitQuiz will guide you through each measurement step by step.
