how to measure a garment

For us, your satisfaction is very important, so we have created this guide with the purpose that the jacket you order fits perfectly to your body and avoid possible changes in size.

Before taking the measurements of your garment is necessary that you place on a flat surface like a table, desk or your bed, because if not fully extended the measures provided may be incorrect.

Sleeve Measurement

The most common errors to provide the weight and height are:

  • Provide a lower body weight than they actually have.
  • Provide a higher body weight than they actually have.
  • Provide body weight without really knowing what your current weight.

For greater accuracy is also recommended that you provide your body measurements.

We need the following body measurements:

  • Back measurement
  • Arm measurement
  • Waist measurement
  • Chest measurement
