Cortech sizing & how to measure

Measure yourself once, then match it to Cortech's chart on any product page. Here is exactly what to measure for each kind of Cortech gear.

  • Chest

    Measure around the fullest part of your chest, under the armpits, keeping the measuring tape parallel to the ground.

  • Waist

    Measure around your natural waistline, around the top of the hip bones, inline with the navel while keeping the measuring tape parallel to the ground.

  • Hips

    Measure the circumference, from pelvic bone to pelvic bone, at the widest part of your hips below the waist.

  • Height

    With no shoes on, stand with your back against a wall and your feet together. Measure from the floor to the top of your head.

  • Arm (Shoulder to Wrist)

    Standing up straight with your arms at your sides, measure from the Acromion or summit of your shoulder, down to your wrist bone, along the outside of the arm.
