how to measure

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 & avoid possible changes.

Also show you how to correctly measure yourself in case that you need a special design.

Current height & weight
weight and height

For us is very important that you gives us your current height & weight as this information allows us to recommend the right size for you, so we can detect possible errors in the measurement provided.

The most common mistakes by given height & weight are:

  • Provide a lower body weight than the one you actually have.
  • Provide a higher body weight than the one you actually have.
  • Provide the body weight without really knowing your current weight.
Back measurement
back measurement

To measure your back is important for someone to help you because if you do it yourself is usually not done correctly. This is because the position you have to perform the measurement, because if you do it by yourself modified the shape of your back. The proper way to do that is standing completely upright without stretch or bend the shoulders then someone else with the help of a tape measure should measure the distance from shoulder to shoulder in the back as show in the back as shown in the image.

The most common mistake by taking measure are:

  • Measure beyond the back around the shoulders.
  • Measure oneself ( to do this is to shrug & the resulting measure will be a much less tan real).
Chest measurement

When you’re measuring your chest you should have someone else to help you again. The proper way to perform this measuremenQuienes Somost is standing fully erect, you have slightly lift the arms enough to pass the measurement tape under your armpit, then the person to help you measures the distance around your chest loosely or too loose leaving the tape as shown in the picture.

The most common mistake when making the chest measurement is:

  • Measure just one side & not around the chest.
Waist measurement

When you do your waist measurement you should have someone else for help. The procedure must be performed as follows: standing, fully upright, the person to help you, place a tape measure around your waist loosely or leave it very loose as how to display the image.

The most common mistake when taking the waist measurement is:

  • Measure only one side and not around the waist.
Measuring arm
arm measurement

To finish with body measurements in the measurement of your arm, ask for help to another person. The proper way to perform this measurement is standing fully erect, then the person to help you, measure the distance from the shoulder to the knuckles, as shown in the image.

The most common errors when taking the measure of the arm are:

  • Measure beyond the shoulder or the knuckles.
  • Take steps with a bent arm.

For greater accuracy is also recommended you provide some measures of your clothes fit snugly to your body.

We need the following measurements of your garment:

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