How We Measure

When we take our measurements, we use a flat surface and a measuring tape. All measurements are taken in centimeters. Please see our images  and informative text below  to understand our method. Some companies may use different methods than ours, so be sure to measure the same way as we do.

We have divided our products into bottoms and tops. We use these ways of measuring for all types of bottoms and all types of tops. Meaning the same goes for pants, jeans, shorts and the same goes for shirts(long and short sleeve), jackets & t-shirts.

BOTTOMS
We use this way of measurement for all bottoms, All measurements are in centimeters and measured on a flat surface. The thigh measurements are taken 10 centimeters down from the crotch straight across the pant leg.

Waist - Measured straight across, not forcing the pant in any way. Let front and back part of pant find it´s natural position. This is different from pant to pant and depends on how the front and back parts differ.

Inseam - Measure from the center of the crotch to the bottom of the hem. Following the inside seam.



Front Rise - Measure from the top of the front to the center of the crotch.



Back Rise - Measure from the top of the back to the center of the crotch.



Thigh - Measure 10 cm down from the crotch and then straight across the thigh.



Leg Opening - Measure straight across the hem.

TOPS - We use this way of measurement for all tops. Width is taken straight across from armpit to armpit. Shoulder width from the top of the shoulders and straight across. Length is taken from the seam at the neck to the bottom of the back. Sleeve length is taken from armpit to the end of the sleeve. Including cuff if it´s a garment with cuffs.
