Don’t Have Grading Specs? No Problem. Tell us how much you want your design to grow per size in the following areas:
- Collar to Shoulder: Measure from the middle of the collar down to the tip of the shoulder.
- Shoulder to Sleeve: Measure from the tip of the shoulder down to the bottom of the sleeve.
- Shoulder to Shoulder: Measure from the corner of one shoulder across to the other shoulder. This is crucial, as shoulder widths can vary even among people wearing the same size.
- Upper Arm Width: Measure across the middle of the upper arm, from one side of the sleeve to the other. This is important for ensuring the sleeve fits well around the biceps.
- Forearm Width: Measure across the middle of the forearm, from one side of the sleeve to the other.
- Chest Width: Measure from the bottom of one armhole across the chest to the bottom of the opposite armhole.
- Waist Width: Measure where the natural waist would fall, typically a bit lower than halfway down the jacket, from one side across to the other.
- Front Length: Measure from the middle of the collar down vertically to the bottom of the jacket.
- Hip Width: Measure from one bottom corner of the jacket across to the other.
- Sleeve Hole Width: Measure the width of the sleeve hole by placing the measuring tape at one corner of the sleeve hole and pulling it across to the other side.
