Size Guide
Use this guide before ordering Tight 5 Sevens apparel. Our products come from several print partners and garment manufacturers, so fit can vary by style.
Best method: measure a shirt or hoodie that already fits you well, then compare it with the garment notes below. If you are between sizes, choose the larger size for a relaxed fit.
How to measure
- Chest or bust: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape level and comfortably loose.
- Waist: Measure around your natural waistline.
- Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips.
- Flat garment width: Lay a favorite garment flat and measure straight across, one inch below the armholes. Double that number to compare it with body-chest measurements.
- Body length: Measure from the highest shoulder point to the bottom hem.
