Important when choosing the size of clothing

How to measure yourself in the chest? Use a tailor's tape measure to measure the circumference of the fullest part of the chest. Take the measurement in underwear, a thin T-shirt, etc. - a thick sweatshirt may distort the result.

How to measure yourself at the waist? Forget about measuring with a tape measure, unfortunately it will not work. Take a tailor's tape measure and measure the circumference of your waist where you usually wear pants. Check whether the trousers you are viewing have waist adjustments or an elastic waist system and take this into account when measuring and selecting the sizes.

How to measure yourself in the hips? Some manufacturers give an additional value in the size charts - this is the circumference of the hips. Use a tailor's tape measure to measure the circumference at its widest point. Take the measurement in underwear - trousers, e.g. with holster pockets, may distort the result.

How to measure the length of the leg? Lay your pants flat and measure the distance from the crotch to the bottom of the leg with a tape measure or tape measure. Remember the result and compare it with the leg lengths shown in the table. This way you will decide whether to choose a standard, short or extended size.

Important when choosing the size of shoes

For work shoes where we spend most of the day, choosing the right size is especially important. Here are our tips:

Put on the sock that you will wear with your shoes (especially if you use thicker socks, e.g. hiking socks), then place your foot on an A4 sheet of paper placed on the floor and outline its shape. Compare the length of the section between the edge of the heel and the farthest toe with the manufacturer's size chart.

Note that the toecap in work shoes reduces the possibility of the shoe 'shattering'.

The time of measurement is also important - in the evening the rate is higher than in the morning, so we recommend measuring at the end of the working day.
