5 Important Things About Measuring and Ordering:

1. If you know the size that fits you well, order that size. But if in doubt, don't guess - determine your correct size by carefully following the measuring instructions on this page.
2. To insure accuracy, have someone else take your body measurements. Hold tape straight and snug, but not tight.
3. Carefully read the description of the item you want to order to determine if the style is right for your build, and if it is available in your size and the color you want.
4. When ordering, be sure to give all sizes requested.
5. If you should fall between sizes, order the next larger size for that item.

How to measure for your correct sizes:

Chest Size: Place tape measure around fullest part of chest, keeping it up under arms and around the shoulder blades. Number of inches is your size.
Waist Size: Place tape measure around waist over shirt (not slacks) at height you wear slacks. Keep one finger between tape and body. Number of inches is your size.
Seat Size: Place tape measure around fullest part of hips over a comfortably fitting pair of slacks (pockets empty). Number of inches may aid in determining your size.
Inseam Size: Lay well-fitting slacks flat with crease at back and front. Lift one slacks leg, and measure from crotch along inseam to the length preferred. Number of inches is your size.
Neck Size: On a shirt that fits you well, lay collar flat, measure collar from center of collar button to far end of collar buttonhole. Number of inches is your size.
Sleeve Size: Place tape measure at center of back of collar, along arm, behind elbow, to far end of cuff. Number of inches in length is your size.
Knitted Shirts: Take chest measurement over undershirt.
Sweatshirts: Take chest measurement over clothing you will normally wear underneath.
Sport Coats and Outerwear: Your correct height is important in determining sleeve length. See chart below to determine if you are a Short, Regular or Long. Be sure the item you want is available in the length you want and your chest size. Measure chest as instructed in the diagram on this page.
Tall Sizes: We have some items specially cut longer for taller men. If you are 5'11 ½″Lto 6'2 ½″Ltall, look for Tall Sizes in outerwear, shirts, pajamas, robes and underwear. If you are over 6'2 ½″Ltall, see information for extra-tall..
