Use the measurement of a jacket that fits you, if you feel like: just measure the centre back seam of your jacket, without including the collar. Low your head a little and measure from the most prominent bone below your neck, to the back of your crotch (1 cm below your rear). 7/18 Back length End the measuring where you want your jacket to end ideally Wrap the tape measure around your wrist, just below your wrist bone. Relax your arms at your sides and wrap the tape measure around the largest point of both of your biceps. Continue to measure from your elbow to just below your wrist bone, hugging the shape of your arm. Relax your arms and measure them in two different sessions: start from where you ended the shoulder measuring, in other words the outside edge of the shoulder (where the sleeve of your shirt starts), and measure to your elbow. The tape shouldn’t be perfectly straight, but it should follow the natural curve of your back, touching the most prominent bone below your neck.

Measure your shoulder width from the outside edge of the left shoulder (basically where the sleeve of your shirt starts), to the outside edge of the right shoulder. 3/18 Shoulder width Make sure that the tape measure is not straight and that it hugs the natural shape of your back Don’t stretch your neck and don’t draw your chin downwards, stand relaxed. Measure the circumference around your neck, with the tape slightly beneath Adam’s apple, making sure not to pull the tape measure tight. 2/18 Neck circumference Pay attention not to pull the tape measure too tight Relax your arms at your sides and breathe normally, so as to get a correct chest measurement. Measure the circumference around your chest, with the tape beneath your armpits, in line with your nipples.
