Jacket Measurement
Showing Gems Jacket Measure
Jacket Chest
- Measure around the fullest part of the chest keeping the tape measure level, and well under the arms.
- You should only just be able to feel the tape measure on your chest.
- Stand normally, do not inflate your chest.
- Make sure your index finger is able to fit between the tape and your chest.
Jacket Waist
- Measure around your stomach at the level of the bottom of your ribcage.
- As a guide this measurement will be where you are the widest.
- Allow some room for breathing /movement
Jacket Length
- Lift up the collar on your jacket and measure from the collar seam down the centre back seam to the bottom of the jacket following the contours of your body.
- If you are unsure of the perfect length it is generally accepted to be where your knuckles are with your arms naturally hanging down.
Sleeve Length
- With your arm in line with your body, measure from the top of the sleeve to the cuff.
- The sleeve should go to the base of your thumb (located at the wrist joint).
- We also recommend that you err on the side of generosity with your sleeve length
