How to Choose the Right Men’s Clothing Sizes

Related:

When shopping online, it can be challenging to determine if an outfit will fit you well or not. Most manufacturers in the United States use American size standards allowing you to select a suitable size if you are familiar with the one you usually buy.

However, if you don’t have a clue about your clothing size, you can learn that right here.

With a flexible tape measure and a pair of extra hands, you can find the perfect size of jeans, pants, suits, and shirts. Different brands have their own sizing standards, and that’s why your measurements are the best standard for finding a good fit.

Checking the size labels on your clothes won’t always work because your ideal size could be different across various manufacturers.

How to Take Body Measurements for Men’s Clothing

Related: How to Measure Your Body for Clothing Sizes

Your body type, posture, and physical size will determine if you get an accurate measurement. You should stand upright but relaxed as someone else takes the body measurements.

  • Chest measurement – Keeping the tape horizontal to the floor, measure the widest part of the chest. The tape should also go under your arms and around your back. You can have at least an inch of ease depending on the fit you want in your shirt or coat.
  • Waist measurement – This is the circumference of your natural waistline, below your ribs. If you want a snug fit, you can be shirtless or wearing a close-fitting vest as the measurements are taken.
  • Hip measurement – Like the previous measurements, measure around the widest part of your buttocks while keeping the tape parallel to the ground.

After recording the measurements, the next step is to compare the values with what’s in the charts. This is the easiest way to get an accurate size for your outfits.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do I know my men’s size?

The best way to find the right size for your clothing is by comparing your body measurements with the charts. Alternatively, you can measure your clothes to determine a suitable size.

2. What size is 44 in men’s clothing?

It’s equivalent to a UK size 44 and an XXXL in international sizing.

3. What size is XL in men’s?

An XL in US sizes is the best for men, with a chest measuring 44 – 46 inches and a waist of 38 – 40 inches.

4. What size is 42 in men’s?

This is an extra large size for men whose chest measures about 42 inches.

5. Is 2XL the same as XXL men’s?

2XL is half a size larger than XXL in men’s clothing.

6. What does pant size 32×32 mean?

It means that the waist is 32 inches and the length is 32 inches as well.

7. How do you read men’s shirt sizes?

The values on the back of your shirt represent the neck and sleeve size, respectively, usually represented as x/x.

Conclusion

Finding a fitting pair of pants, jeans, or a shirt can feel overwhelming if you don’t know where to start. Fortunately, with accurate body measurements, you can select the perfect outfit size even when you can’t try it out first.

You shouldn’t assume the sizing labels on your existing clothes are the perfect size for all brands because different lines come with different sizing standards.
