Choosing your size

Measuring One of Your Pants

Materials:

A measuring tape (preferably) or a standard metal tape measure.

Method:

Button up the pants and lay them flat, then measure just below the waistband, from the left side to the right side.

It’s important to place the measuring tape at the base of the waistband, as shown in the illustration.

The value in centimeters that you find corresponds to your size. If you fall between two sizes, choose the larger size!

You will find a conversion chart below to help you choose.
