To measure your chest: Raise your arms slightly and measure just under your arms. Be sure to cross over the shoulder blades and the fullest part of the chest. Suit sizes are equal to your chest size. For example, if you have a 38" chest, you would wear a size 38 suit.
To measure your collar: Place the measuring tape around the fullest part of your neck and keep the tape snug but not tight. For a comfortable fit, place 2 fingers between the tape and your neck. Round up to the next 1/2".
To measure your sleeve: Stand in a normal relaxed position with arms down at your side. Start the tape at the center back of your neck under the collar. Pass the tape squarely over the top of shoulder then down the arm to the desired length. Most people prefer the cuff to fall 1" to 1 1/2" below the wrist bone.
Trousers are hemmed with a 36" inseam, except for the Highland Pants, which are unhemmed. For the waist size, trousers are measured in inches. However, please note that some most of our trousers ride higher on the waist than modern pants do and most people find that they need to move up one size from their usual.
The men's clothing we offer runs true to size, so if you wear a size 42 modern suit, you will wear a size 42 frock coat. The primary exception is the Rifle Frock Coat which is cut very large to accomodate a rifle. Therefore, most people who do not intend to carry a rifle take one size smaller than usual.
