Sizing for Men’s and Women’s Clothing
It can be difficult to shop online for clothing because you can’t try it on before you buy it. And, even if you know your general size, sizes can vary so much between brands and styles. This guide will help you understand sizing for both men’s and women’s clothing so that you can shop with confidence.
Sizing for Men’s Clothing
The standard sizing for men’s clothing is based on the chest measurement, or how many inches around the chest the garment is. For example, a size 42 men’s shirt has a 42-inch chest.
The general sizing for men’s shirts are as follows:
-Small: 38-40 inches
-Medium: 42-44 inches
-Large: 46-48 inches
-Extra Large: 50-52 inches
However, it is important to remember that these sizes can vary depending on the manufacturer and the style of clothing. For example, a men’s button down dress shirt will have a different sizing than a men’s t-shirt.
Sizing for Women’s Clothing
Clothing sizes in the United States are different than those found in most other countries. If you’re shopping for clothes while in the States, it’s important to understand how sizes work. With a few simple measurements, you can determine your size in both women’s and men’s clothing.
To start, get a tape measure and find your height in inches. Then, measure your bust, waist, and hips. Once you have these numbers, refer to the size chart below to find your American dress size.

4′ 10″ 32″ – 34″ 24″ – 26″ 34″ – 36″

Determining Your Own Size
When it comes to finding the right size, it is important that you take into account your own measurements. There are a few things that you need to keep in mind when you are determining your size. First, you need to know your bust, waist, and hip measurements. Second, you need to know your weight. Third, you need to know your height. Lastly, you need to know your body type. With all of these factors, you will be able to better determine your size.
Use a measuring tape
The best way to find your size is by using a measuring tape. Measure around the fullest part of your chest and waist, and consult the size chart below to determine which size you should purchase. If you fall in between two sizes, we recommend ordering the larger size for a better fit.
##Size Chest Waist
S 34-36 28-30
M 38-40 32-34
L 42-44 36-38
XL 46-48 40-42
XXL 50-52 44-46
Find your size in a chart
There are a variety of ways to find your clothing size, but the most common method is by using a size chart. This can be either a general chart that includes measurements for all sizes, or a specific chart for the brand and style you’re interested in.
To find your size using a general size chart, start by taking your measurements. You’ll need to measure your bust, waist, and hips, as well as your height. Once you have your measurements, consult the size chart to see where you fall on the sizing spectrum.
Size charts can vary depending on the retailer or designer, so it’s always best to double-check before you buy. And don’t forget – if you’re in between sizes or you need some extra room in a certain area, most retailers offer petite and plus-size options.
Trending Sizes
The average waist size for women in the United States is 38.7 inches, or about 97.8 centimeters (cm) (1). This number has been slowly but steadily increasing over the past few decades. In fact, the average waist size for women in the United States was about 34 inches, or about 86.4 cm, in 1960 (2). So, what size is a 29?
“Slim Fit” Sizing
The true meaning of “slim fit” or “tailored fit” clothing is a garment with a more specific, fitted silhouette. With less room in the chest, waist, and hips, slim fit garments are designed to flatter guys with slimmer builds. In terms of dress shirts, you can expect a slim fit shirt to hug closer to the body throughout the chest and waist. The sleeves will also be narrower and fitted closer to the body.
“Athleisure” Sizing
“Athleisure” sizing is a new trend in the fashion industry, and it refers to clothing that is designed to be worn both for athletic activities and for everyday casual wear. This type of sizing is usually based on measurements of the bust, waist, and hips, and it can vary significantly from traditional sizing standards. For example, a size 29 in athleisure sizing would correspond to a size 8 or 10 in traditional women’s clothing sizes.
Plus-Size Sizing
29” Sometimes called “missy” or “regular” size, 29” is actually the number most commonly used in the U.S. for women’s plus-size clothing. In misses sizing, a 29” waist would generally be a size 14 or 16, but in women’s plus-size clothing, a 29” waist would generally be closer to a size 20 or 22.
Children’s Sizing
There is no standardization for children’s clothing sizes, so a “size 29” can mean different things depending on the brand or store. However, general size categories for children’s clothing are usually determined by age group. For example, size 29 would generally fall into the 4-5 years old category.
There are also a few other ways to estimate what size 29 would be. One way is to use a child’s height and weight to find their approximate size on a size chart. Another way is to take measurements of the child’s chest, waist, and hip circumference and compare those numbers to a sizing chart.
If you need more help determining what size 29 would be, you can always ask a salesperson at the store or contact the customer service department of the company you’re interested in purchasing from.
