Quick Answer

Men's jacket sizes usually lean on chest and height, while women's jacket sizes usually use chest and hips. If you are between two sizes, pick the larger one.

How to Calculate Jacket Size

  1. Measure your body with a soft tape measure.
  2. Select the fit type that matches the jacket label.
  3. Compare your measurements to the closest chart row.
  4. Choose the larger size if you are between two rows.

Formula

Jacket size = closest chart match based on chest, height, and hip measurements

The calculator looks for the best fit row rather than forcing a single arithmetic formula.

Worked Examples

Example 1: A 68 in height and 38 in chest men's fit lands around M.

Example 2: A 36 in bust and 40 in hips women's fit lands around S or M, so the larger size is safer.

Example 3: A 72 in chest/height combination usually pushes the result toward the bigger chart row.
