To ensure your jacket fits perfectly, it's important to consider both your chest size and the appropriate length. Refer to our comprehensive measurement table below for guidance:

  • Chest: Measure your chest circumference accurately.
  • Waist: Note the waist measurement for a comfortable fit.
  • Shoulder: Shoulder width is crucial for freedom of movement.
  • Sleeve: Determine sleeve length for adequate arm coverage.
  • Front Length: This indicates the length from the base of the collar to the hem, excluding tails.
  • Back Length (excl. tails): Measure from the base of the collar to the back hem, excluding tails.
  • Back Length (incl. tails): This measures the full length from the base of the collar to the back hem, including tails.
  • Half Back: Measure from the center of the back to the shoulder seam.
  • Collar: Collar height is essential for neck comfort.

Once you have your measurements, select the appropriate jacket size from our range. If you have average height relative to your chest and waist measurements, choose regular (R) length. For shorter individuals, we recommend short (S) length, and for taller individuals, long (L) length.

If you're unsure which size to choose, we recommend selecting the size closest to your measurements. Please note that we offer exchanges to ensure your satisfaction. Alternatively, for a truly tailored fit, consider our bespoke tailoring service, although this option may involve longer lead times and additional costs.

For bespoke orders, please select the MTM option at the bottom of the size selection. Our aim is to provide you with a jacket that not only fits perfectly but also reflects your individual style and preferences.
