Mens Custom Fitted Measuring Guide
At Tusk Linen Co (TLC) we care, we want your clothing to be Comfortable, Cool and Trendy. The best way to do that is by having your clothing Custom Fitted for You.
If you take measurements of yourself as follows it will be the first step to a Perfect Fitting Garment
Made for You with TLC …..
Shirts & Jackets
For the Perfect Fitting Shirt or Jacket we need the following measurements. It is best to have somebody help you and to take the measurements with a Tailors Tape Measure.
Neck
Take the measurement from the centre of where the collar would be.
Just below the Adams Apple so it is snug but not to tight.
Dont allow your shirt collar to strangle you enough room to fit a finger between neck and tape.
Chest
Put your hands down by your side and relax.
The measuring tape should be put over your shirt, up under your arms and across your shoulder blades.
This should be the fullest part of your chest
The tape should be held firm but not tight.
Waist
This measurement should be taken with a shirt on and holding the tape firm against the body but not tight.
Your natural waist is usually the smaller measurement above your hips around the belly button.
Hips
Make sure your pockets are empty & place the tape around the fullest part of the hips over the trouser seat with your pants on.
Hold the tape firm but not tight.
Shoulder
Put your best fitting shirt on that is a comfortable fit.
Take your full Shoulder measurement from where the seam joins the back left side to where the seam joins the back right side.
Keep the tape firm but not tight.
Shirt Length
The length of your shirt can make you appear trendy or dorkish. Similar to a tie being too long or too short.
The shirt length can vary & it is more often a personal preference.
The best way is to measure a shirt the you like the length of on you.
The tape measure should be held at the front of the body/shirt with the top of the tape starting from the shoulder seam.
Measure the length you require.
Jacket Length
The Jacket length can vary & it is more often a personal preference.
The best way is to measure a Jacket length is by holding the tape at the front of the body from the shoulder seam and taking the measurement at the knuckle where the thumb joins your hand.
Of course you can make this measurement to suit yourself.
Sleeves
With your arm straight and your hand in a loose fist
Place the tape at the top of the shoulder seam.
The measurement should be taken from the shoulder seam to the knuckle of the little finger.
Deduct 5cm from this measurement.
Dont forget to deduct 5cm.
Cuff
Measure your actual wrist size
If you wear a medium thickness watch add 1 cm to the measurement
If you wear a thicker watch add 2 cm to the measurement.
Measure both wrists
Biceps
Let your arm relax down by your side and have your Bicep measured at its fullest point.
This is usually fairly close to your armpit.
Make sure the tape is not too tight but firm.
Dont flex even though you want to.
