Available sizes for all of our products are shown on
the individual product pages in our online catalog.
Each manufacturer has their own specific size
availability of 'tall' and 'short' sizes, waist
sizes etc (for example one pant style may come stock
in a 33" waist, another may not). Because we carry
many different brands, there is no single size chart
to cover all items.
If you would like specific size charts for any brand
please let us know, we will be happy to email or fax
them to you. In general, we recommend ordering the
same size you normally do when buying clothing.
While there are subtle sizing differences across
brands, the manufacturers adhere to an acceptable
'range' when sizing their garments. Our sales reps
have extensive experience with the fit of our
products and will be able to help you in determining
what to order.
For most orders, we are happy to send you a range of
sizes to try-on before you order. We ship these
items to you as samples so all it costs you is the
freight to ship them back to us.
Measuring is also a good way to determine what sizes
to order. If you prefer to measure, below find some
tips we hope you will find useful.
▪
Always keep the tape measure straight but not tight.
▪ Allow for 'slight' shrinkage on garments that are
not pre-washed.
▪ Stand straight and relaxed.
▪ Wear shoes when measuring for pants.
▪ If an individual falls between sizes, order the
larger size.
▪ An individual should not measure themselves.
BUST:
Measure around shoulder blades, under arms, to the
fullest part of the bust. Note that 'bust size' does
not mean 'bra size'.
WAIST: Stand in a relaxed position, measure around
narrowest part of natural waist.
HIPS: Measure around the fullest part, normally
about seven inches below natural waistline.
INSEAM: Stand with legs straight and slightly apart,
feet flat. Hold one end of the tape to the base of
the crotch. Straighten tape down the inside of the
leg to the top of shoe.
NECK:
Measure around the middle of the neck. Tape should
be snug but not tight.
CHEST: Measure around shoulder blades, under arms,
to the fullest part of the chest.
WAIST: Stand in a relaxed position, measure around
narrowest part of natural waist.
SLEEVE: Bend elbow and measure from the center of
the back of neck, across the shoulder and down the
arm to the wrist bone.
INSEAM: Stand with legs straight and slightly apart,
feet flat. Hold one end of the tape to the base of
the crotch. Straighten tape down the inside of the
