General Guidelines for Choosing a Suit Size

What are the common mistakes you may make in choosing the sizes?

  • Choose the size only based on your height or weight.
  • Simply choose the size which you normally wear comfortably.

How to select the right size?

  • Measure your body size correctly.
  • Generally speaking, the suit sizes are slightly larger than the actual human body size. When men purchase clothing, the chest size of men’s suit should be 4-6 inches larger than the body size, and the suits's pants waist size between 0.8 to 1.6 inches larger than the body size. (The information above is just for your reference only)
  • It's best to choose a size slightly larger than your measured size.

For example, if your chest measurement is 40.9 inches, but our size chart doesn't include that size (40 inches and 42.5 inches are available), we recommend choosing a suit with a 42.5 inch chest measurement.

What Are the Steps to Customise Your Suit

You must realize the fact that there are thousands of suit manufacturers in the world. Inevitably, there may be slight differences in size standards because of the different measurement systems. All of these differences can lead to the clothes incorrectly fitting.

Custom Suit Measurement Guide

Chest Measurement:

Measure the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape horizontal and comfortably snug. Make sure the measurement goes all the way around.

Belly Measurement:

Measure around the fullest part of your stomach, keeping the tape horizontal and comfortably snug. Make sure the tape goes all the way around.

Shoulder Measurement:

Measure from the outer edge of one shoulder to the outer edge of the other, keeping the tape level for accuracy.


Jacket Length Measurement:

Measure from the highest point of your shoulder, near the base of your neck, straight down to the desired jacket hem. Keep the tape vertical for accuracy.

Trousers Waist Measurement:

Measure around the narrowest part of your waist, keeping the tape horizontal and comfortably snug. Make sure the tape goes all the way around.


Hips Measurement:

Measure around the fullest part of your hips, keeping the tape horizontal and comfortably snug. Make sure the tape goes all the way around.


Inseam Measurement:

Place the tape at the crotch and measure straight down the inside of your leg to where you want the trousers to end. Make sure the tape stays straight.

Outseam Measurements:

Place the tape at the top of your waist and measure straight down the outside of your leg to where you want the trousers to end. Ensure the tape stays straight.

You may also provide any additional measurements you wish.

Thigh Measurement: Wrap the measuring tape around the widest part of your thigh, keeping it level. Take a full-circle measurement for accuracy.
Sleeve Length Measurement: Place the tape at the outer edge of your shoulder and measure down to where you want the sleeve to end. Keep your arm relaxed and the tape straight for accuracy.
Neck Measurement: Wrap the measuring tape around the base of your neck, where the collar normally sits. Ensure the tape is comfortably snug for an accurate measurement.

If you need any further guidance, please contact our customer service at service@sweetearing.co.uk. Please ensure all measurements are taken while in a comfortable position. For the most accurate results, we recommend taking your measurements while wearing a thin shirt or light clothing, similar to what you would normally wear under a suit. Avoid thick sweaters or padded clothing, as they may affect the fit.
