Stand straight against a wall without your shoes. Make a mark level with the top of your head. Measure from this point down to the floor.
Measure around the base of the neck where a collared shirt would fit, or measure a collar band on a shirt that fits you well.
Measure the fullest part of your chest/bust. Hold the tape firmly, but not tightly. Be sure the tape is level and straight across your back. Stand naturally.
First, remove your belt. Then, measure over shirt (not over pants) at 1/2" to 1" below the navel. Hold the tape firmly but not tightly. If pants are worn under a protruding abdomen, measure where pants are typically worn. Note: For women, please refer to the hip measurement as the
key point of measure for fitting pants.
For shirts and covering garments such as coveralls - measure midsection over clothing around the fullest part of the abdomen. Note: Include both “A” and “B” measurements if ordering multiple garments.
Stand with your heels together. Measure around the fullest part of the hips. Hold the tape measure straight and level.
Standing straight, measure the distance from the crotch to just below the ankle bone. OR - using similar style pants that fit you well: lay garment flat with front and back creases and smooth. Measure along the inside seam of one leg from the bottom of the hem to the crotch.
Bend the elbow slightly. Start at the center back of the neck and measure across the shoulder to the elbow and down to the wrist bone.
Measure from base of neck (front) down around crotch and back up to the bottom of the collar. (For coveralls only)
Measure the circumference of the head at it’s widest diameter, approximately 1/8" above the ears.
