Fit & measurements
Find your true size
Every body measures a little differently, so we size by chest, waist and hip girth rather than guesswork. Use the reference table below alongside the measuring guide to check yourself before you order.
Size chart
All measurements are body girth, in centimetres, with 1cm of ease already built in.
| Size | XS | S | M | L | XL | XXL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EUR | 34 | 36 | 38/40 | 42 | 44 | 46 |
| Chest | 80–84 | 85–89 | 90–95 | 96–101 | 102–108 | 109–115 |

Between two sizes? Go by your chest measurement first for tops, or hips for bottoms, see the notes below.
How to measure
Use a soft tape, wear light clothing, and keep the tape level all the way around.
Chest
Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, level across the back. Keep it snug, not tight, and read the measurement where the tape meets.
Waist
Find your natural waistline, usually the narrowest point of your torso. Don't hold your stomach in, keep the tape level and comfortably snug.
Low hip
Stand with feet together and wrap the tape around the fullest part of your hips and seat, straight and level front to back.
Note: all size ranges include 1cm of ease for comfort.
