How To Measure Waistcoat
Our step-by-step guide will help ensure a perfect fit for your new tartan waistcoat! If you need further assistance, please get in touch.
Before You Start...
- Always ask someone to measure you, never be tempted to measure yourself!
- Please take all measurements in inches.
- Please use a loose tailors tape measure, not a stiff DIY tape measure. These are cheap to buy either locally or online.
- Stand relaxed (do not breathe in), with your feet together and look straight ahead at all times.
- Ensure the tape measure is level all the way around for each measurement, it shouldn't be sloping or slanting.
- If you need our assistance, please get in touch for further assistance.
Chest
- Measure high under the armpits, at the widest point around your upper body (relax your arms down to the side before recording the measurement).
- The tape measure should include the shoulder blades.
Tummy
- Measure the widest point of the tummy, which is usually at navel height.
- Add 1 inch for movement, or take a loose measurement.
- PLEASE NOTE, THIS IS NOT YOUR WAIST SIZE.
- This measurement ensures that the garment(s) we send you can be fastened around your tummy. It's not something other companies ask for, but it's very important!
