How to measure for your shirt size :

Men : Men's shirt sizes are usually based on neck size and sleeve (arm) length.

Neck measurement : Using a cloth tape measure, have a friend measure around your neck (N) approximately 1" up from the base - where the neck meets the shoulders. Neck sizes are based in half inch increments ex.- 16, 16 1/2, 17, 17 1/2 etc. If the neck measurement falls between sizes (ex. 16 1/4) always size up.

Sleeve measurement : You'll need assistance for this one. (S) Standing up straight bend your right arm at a right angle - as if you were blocking in football. Place the head of the tape between the shoulder blades measure out and around the elbow straight to the wrist. On average you should come up with a measurement between 31 & 37 inches. If the sleeve measurement falls between sizes, for example 35 1/2 always size up, in this case to 36.

Combine the neck measurement and the sleeve length for the exact shirt size.
Example: A neck measurement of 16" and a sleeve measurement 35" is a 16 x 35.
Some Men's shirts use average neck and sleeve length for sizing.
Meaning: small, medium, large etc.
Use the following guide to determine your size:
Neck : sized in one inch increments on the half size. Always size up.
Extra Small: XS=13.5" / Small: S=14.5"
Medium: M=15.5" / Large: L=16.5"
Extra Large: XL=17.5" / 2XL=18.5" / 3XL=19.5" / 4XL=20.5" / 5XL=21.5"

Sleeve : sized in "odd" increments. Always size up.
1=31" / 3=33" / 5=35" / 7=37" / 9=39"

Combine the neck size and the sleeve length for the average shirt size.

example: A neck measurement of 16" and a sleeve measurement of 35" is an L5. A neck measurement of 15 1/2" and a sleeve measurement 32" would translate to an M3.

How to measure for your jacket size :




Men:
Method #1 : While standing have a friend place a cloth tape measure around your chest (C), under your arms, at its fullest part. Insert a finger between the tape and your body to allow for some "breathing room". Don't pull too tight!. This should be your jacket size.

Alternate method for average builds: Measure around the waist (W), don't pull too tight, and add 6 for the jacket size.

Method #2 : Most Accurate: Particularly helpful for body builders and bigger gentlemen.

Standing with your arms at your side have a friend place a cloth tape measure around your shoulders and and chest at it's fullest part (overarm). Take that number and subtract 6 or 7 to acquire your jacket size. Example: The overarm measurement is 50". Deduct 6". Your jacket size should be a size 44.

How to measure for your pants / trouser size :

Men : While standing straight, have a friend measure around your waist (W) at the top of your hip bone. Again, don't pull too tight to allow for eating and seating room. Also, if you know you have large hips in relation to your waist it may be advisable to size up as well.

 

Pants Length / Outseam : While standing straight & looking forward measure from the top of the hip bone down to "approximately" the bottom of the ankle bone. We ship a vast majority of our pants unhemmed. We can alter the pants length upon special request for an additional fee. However, if we hem the pants they are no longer return/exchangeable.
