Proper Fitting Clothes | Knowing Your Body Measurements | Fit Guide
EDIT: Audio is muted in the non talking portions of the video since YT flagged the bg music. All the steps are still displayed and is audible.
It's important to have proper fitting clothes. Here's a quick video I made on how I measure my body for the proper fit. This sizing guide will help with you figure out your body measurements, that way you will always find the right size when it comes to most basic clothing you find at any retailer (H&M, UNIQLO, J. Crew, etc.).
First you need Body Measurement Tape: bit.ly/Body_Mea...
Measurements should be taken directly on your body:
Chest - Measure over the fullest part of your chest.
Arms - Measure from the top of your shoulder down to your wrist.
Waist - Measure at the most narrow part of the waist.
Hips - Measure around the fullest part of your hip.
Legs - Measure from the inseam region which is from your crotch to your ankle.
Focusing on these 5 areas will help you find your correct size at most retailers.

Chest measurement: make sure you're breathing normally, and taking the measurement at the biggest point in your breath cycle. (lung volume changes chest size) Hips: feet should be together, having feet apart will make an artificially large hip measurement 😊

What I find confusing is that us guys have 3 different measurements when it comes to buying pants: 1 - waist (typically measured from ~ belly button - mine is 74cm or 29") 2 - hips (widest point lower than your belly button/pelvis - mine is 82cm or 32") 3 - backside/ass circumference (peak/fullest point - mine is 92cm or 36") When ordering, it's sorted by 'waist size' but your pants sit on your 'hip measurement' rather than waist. I'm always like, which measurement do I stick to before buying online?

Always size up, never down. So hip measurement, if that is bigger. The area that is loose can always be shrunk by a tailor or you add a belt.

The arms, chest will actually cover it to give you want idea and unless you're going for a suit it may not matter for most clothing. I'm sure you could look up how to do it though. My guide was mostly for regular clothing sizing charts.

Start the end of the tape measure on the outside edge of the shoulder. This is where the horizontal part of the shoulder meets the vertical part of the arm. Measure up over the curve of the shoulders and to outside edge of the other shoulder. It'll be easier with another person to help you.

Most companies will not display their t-shirt length so you will not need to know your back length. That's why I did not include it. If you're curious here is how you measure your back. Bend your head forward to find the most prominent bone in the back of your neck and measure from here down the spine to the bottom of your back waist.
