Blazer Size and Fitting Guide
Men's Fitting Tips
All of our men’s blazers are a classic/regular fit based on standardized measurements. If the gentleman would normally wear a classic fit jacket in a 44R then that is the size he should order in his blazer. Please note, tailored or slim fit jackets are not available. Comfort in the fit of the shoulders is key. Fullness in the waist line can be addressed by a local tailor or seamstress.
How to measure for your MENS JACKET SIZE :
Method #1 : While standing have a friend place a cloth tape measure around your chest (see attached image), under your arms, at its fullest part. Insert a finger between the tape and your body to allow for some "breathing room". Don't pull too tight!. This should be your jacket size.
Alternate method for average builds: Measure around the waist (see attached image), don't pull too tight, and add 6 for the jacket size.
Method #2 : Most Accurate: Particularly helpful for body builders and bigger gentlemen. Standing with your arms at your side have a friend place a cloth tape measure around your shoulders and and chest at it's fullest part (overarm) (see attached image). Take that number and subtract 6 or 7 to acquire your jacket size. Example: The overarm measurement is 50". Deduct 6". Your jacket size should be a size 44.
Length : Use the following guide to determine men's jacket length.
Men's Jacket Length Scale 5'7" & Under Short - S 5'8" to 5"11" Regular - R 5'11.5" to 6'3" Long - L 6' 4" to 6'8" Extra Long - XL or X
How to measure for your MISSES JACKET SIZE :
The uniform industry only offers garments in “Misses” sizes. Most women who wear “Petites" will find garments to run long and large. Most women who wear "Women's" or "Plus” sizes will find the garments run small. You will need to order a larger size in Misses than you normally would in women's or plus.

**For best fit we recommend measuring the fullest part of your bust/chest with a cloth tailors tape. Bra size is not a reliable or accurate method for determining bust or shirt size.
