MEASUREMENT INSTRUCTIONS 

Suits Are Ordered Based on Jacket Size Measurement (customer’s chest).

HOW TO TAKE MEASUREMENT FOR YOUR SUITS, JACKETS, COATS, BLAZERS OR TUXEDOS

 Check inside any of your suit's inside pockets. Every so often, the size of that suit is indicated inside. If you are unable to find it, please follow these procedures to ascertain your correct size. If the measurement you are using is in centimeters, you would have to divide the total number of centimeters by 2.54 to change it to inches.

To measure your chest: Raise your arms slightly and measure just under your arms. Be sure to cross over the shoulder blades and the fullest part of the chest. Suit sizes are equal to your chest size. For example, if you have a 38" chest, you would wear a size 38 suit. To confirm your suit size, measure your waist or the waistband of a comfortable, well fitting pair of pants and add 6 inches. Suit sizes through 46" will have a pant size of 6" less. From 48" and up, the pant size is 5" less. Example: Suit size 42 jacket comes with 36" waist trousers.

HOW TO TAKE MEASUREMENT FOR YOUR PANT(S)

Check inside any of your pants' waistband. Usually, the size of the pant is written on the waistband. If you are unable to find it, please follow these procedures to get your correct size. If the measurement you are using is in centimeters, you would have to divide the total number of centimeters by 2.54 in order to be converted into inches.

WAIST MEASUREMENT:

Measure around your waistline where you normally wear your pants, keeping your forefinger between your body and the measuring tape or, better yet, measure the waistband of your most comfortable pair of pants. Pants sizes are equal to your waist size. For example, if you have a 38" waist, you should wear a size 38 pants. To measure your inseam: Using a pair of pants that fit you well, measure from the top of the inner pant leg seam to the opening at the bottom of the pant leg. The number of inches is the inseam length, rounded to the nearest half inch. Suit sizes through 46" will have a pant size of 7" less.
Example: Suit size 48 jacket comes with 42" waist slacks.
