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.
Misses : Misses
shirts are generally based on bust size (B). Please use

The guide (above)
can be used for determining women's jacket and vest sizes as
well.
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.
Length :
Use
the following guide to determine men's jacket length.

Women :
Women's
jackets are generally based on bust size (B). Use the
guide located in the shirt section (above) to determine your
size.
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.
Men's Adjustable
Pants have
a 3" range of adjustment.
