How To Measure Hoodie Size?

How to measure hoodie size

Chest

First thing is first, you need a tape measure, duh. If that’s not available, a piece of string and a ruler will do just fine. Nothing fancy!

The person being measured should then stand up straight, with no awkward poses. Wrap your measuring tape of string around the widest part of their body.

For most people, that would be around nipple height or 1 inch below the underarm! You are aiming for a snug fit unless the client instructs you otherwise. Record your readings.

Pro tip: If you offer custom fitting services, you are likely to attract more customers. The magic is in addressing each person’s body type. You make them feel special, and we all love that!

Body length

Again, while the client is standing up, locate their shoulder. Go for the bony bit in case you don’t know where to place your tape measure.

From there, you wanna go all the way down to the waist or hip. That is typically where most people want their hoodies to end.

Our typical offering ranges from size XS to 4XL. Plus, you never have to worry about defects with our eagle-eyed QC team. Offer what the market needs and enjoy word-of-mouth marketing.

Sleeve length

Tell your client to lift one hand up such that they are at a 90-degree angle to the body. This is where that geometry class comes in handy.

Measure from the center of their neck, where two clavicle bones meet, all the way down to the wrist. Again, you wanna go with a snug fit here. Most people don’t wanna look like Dumbledore.

Expert insight: When offering sizing to customers, consider fabric properties such as stretching. Some clothes materials, such as Modal and Lyocell, will stretch, which affects the sizing.
