CHEST

Chest circumference

The measurement of the chest in its maximum extension during normal breathing, measured with the person standing, passing the measuring tape horizontally around the torso over the scapula bones (the shoulder blades) and just under the armpits.

ARM

Sleeve length from shoulder (arm straight)

The distance from the most protruding point of the shoulder to the wrist (on the end of the Ulna bone), measured with the arm relaxed at the person's side.

WAIST

Waist circumference

The circumference measured horizontally around the waist, just above the highest point of each of the iliac crest bones, during normal breathing, on the person standing, with a relaxed abdomen.

HIP

Hip circumference

The measurement taken horizontally around the hips, at the most protruding part of the buttocks (the peak when viewed from the side), or the most protruding part of the hips if more pronounced than buttocks.

INSEAM

Crotch to ground

The distance between the lowest point of the trunk and the soles of the feet (without shoes), measured perpendicular to the ground, with the person standing straight, feet shoulder width apart, and the weight of the body evenly distributed on the two legs.

BREAST

Breast circumference

The maximum circumference of the chest, measured on the breast, in an upright position during normal breathing. The tape should be positioned under the armpits and around the scapula bones (shoulder blades), and then placed over the maximum projection of the breast (i.e. NOT horizontally).
