Measuring Tips
Chest
Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape level and comfortably loose.
Waist
Measure around the narrowest part of your torso, or use the jeans waist point when the product calls for it.
Hip
Measure around the widest part of your hips while standing naturally with your feet close together.
Sleeve & Inseam
For sleeves, measure from the base of the neck over the elbow to the wrist. For inseam, measure a well-fitting pant from crotch seam to hem.
Footwear
Stand on paper, mark heel and longest toe, then measure the distance. Repeat on both feet and use the longer measurement.
Accessories
For gloves, measure from the middle fingertip to the base of your palm. For hats, measure where the hat naturally sits.
Fit Notes
Size charts are a starting point, and fit can vary by product style, layering preference, material, and intended use. A fitted base layer, insulated jacket, hiking shoe, or technical pack may all feel different even when the size label is the same.
Always check the product details, fit description, and available size notes on the item page before choosing your final size.
Between Sizes?
If your measurement falls between two sizes, choose based on how you like the product to fit. Pick the smaller size for a closer fit, or choose the larger size if you prefer more room, plan to layer, or need extra movement.
For footwear, use the longer foot measurement. If you are between footwear sizes, sizing up may provide a more comfortable fit.
