measuring for men

To ensure the best fit, we recommend you measure yourself with a soft tape measure and, if possible, have someone help you. We have standardized sizing within our private label brands, to help you shop with confidence.

Helpful Hints for Measuring

• All measurements are body measurements, not garment measurements.
• All measurements are in inches.
• Hold the tape measure firmly, but not tightly.
• For best results, take measurements over undergarments.
• When measuring circumferences, tape measure should be parallel to the floor.
• Stance should be natural with arms at your side.
• Match your measurements to the appropriate size chart.
