How We Measure
Sizes vary between brands and models, and pre-owned items may have shrunk or stretched over time. That is why every listing includes actual measurements of the item, taken by hand. Compare them with a similar piece you own and that fits you well – it is the most reliable way to choose the right size.
How we take measurements
All measurements are taken in centimetres, with the item laid flat and zipped or buttoned up.
- Width (pit to pit) – straight across the front, from one armpit seam to the other.
- Length – down the centre of the back, from the collar or hood seam to the bottom hem.
- Sleeve length – from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff. For raglan sleeves (no shoulder seam) we measure from the collar seam at the centre back to the end of the cuff, and mark it as "raglan" in the listing.
Measurements are taken by hand, so please allow a tolerance of about 1–2 cm.
How to measure your own clothing
Take a jacket, hoodie or top that fits you well, lay it flat on a table and measure it the same way as described above. Then compare the numbers with the measurements in our listing.
