Knowing how a particular item is going to fit you is key and the best way to achieve this is by correctly measuring your body.
Here is our quick guide to measuring yourself to help you get the perfect fit from our range of products at Fosters. To ensure you get accurate results, take these measurements in thin fitted clothing.
- Chest
Hold the tape around the fullest part of your chest keeping it parallel to the floor and straight around your back. - Waist
To find your waist you need to measure between your lowest rib and the top of your hip bone. - Hip
Measure around the widest part of your hips to ensure a comfortable fit. - Inside leg
Measure from the top of your inside leg down to your ankle keeping the tape pulled tight.
