The Measuring Guide
Taking quality measurements is one of the keystones to creating the perfect garment, tailored to fit you like a second skin. We've outlined the best practices for getting close-to-perfect measurements on your own.
This guide can also help you determine your size within our Ready-to-Wear Collection for Men and Women. If you have any questions after measuring, we are always happy to assist before you place your order.
CHEST MEASUREMENT
This measurement is the foundation of each jacket and the number one place to start. Measure your chest at the broadest portion of your torso, upon taking a deep breath. Place the tape in the middle of the chest and wrap it around your body, passing under both arms until it meets the spot where you began, keeping the tape parallel to the floor. Again, leave enough slack in your tape to fit the width of two fingers.
WAIST MEASUREMENT
Place the tape measure at the center front of your torso and wrap it around the narrowest part of your waist until it meets the spot where you began. Be careful not to over-tighten the tape measure, but leave enough slack for the width of two fingers.
SHOULDER MEASUREMENT
Measure the shoulder width by starting at the seam where your sleeve meets your shoulder. Run the tape across the back of your jacket, taut, until it meets the matching seam on the opposing side. You may need a friend to assist you with this measurement, or this measurement can easily be taken from your favorite jacket.
SLEEVE LENGTH
Place the measuring tape on the bone at the center base of your neck and extend horizontally to the shoulder point. From there, run the tape vertically down your arm, extending as long as you wish your sleeve length to be. You can also take this measurement from your favorite jacket at home--just find its peak shoulder point, and measure to the finished sleeve end.
