Size guide
The chest measurements shown in the top row below are body measurements, not garment measurements.
Garments are designed with additional room for comfort and ease of movement and may measure 1-2 inches larger than body measurements.
The second and third row below show garment flat measurements, taken across and down the garment when laid flat.
Comparing the garment measurements to a similar item already owned can help you choose the best size.
