The sizes of jackets (size charts)

The sizes of jackets

Normally jackets labels show two parameters:

-the size (chest girth in inches);

-the height (maximum height of a person the jacket would fit for).

The sizes of jackets:

All the parameters mentioned in common size charts are for people of standard body complexion.

It's recommended to check the web pages of particular brands for more detailed charts.

Important: the girths and lengthwise sizes are measured using the tape measure, that should be tight enough on the body, but not deforming it.

Standard and nonstandard sizes:

Standard size charts are made for people with following parameters:

-women: from 165 (cm) up to 172 (cm) height;
-men: up to 189 (cm) height, when the chest is 15-20% wider than the waist.

Nonstandard size charts labeling:

-U: for stocky men, when the chest girth is 2-5% bigger than the waist circumference;
-B: for obese men, when the waist circumference is 5-20% bigger than the chest girth;
-S: for tall men, when the waist circumference is 1-5% smaller than the chest girth;
-K, EK: for short women from 157 (cm) up to 164 (cm) height;
-L, EL: for tall women from 172 (cm) height.

Important: if there are no special indications on the label, it means the garment is made for standard body parameters.
