How to Take Measurements for a Perfect Fit

For most of these measurements, you will require someone to help measure and read the measurements. Remember, you will be (or should be!) wearing other garments under this protective Nomex Insulated Hood, so consider this when measuring for the best fit.

Remember to ask someone you are comfortable with and to respect everyone’s comfort levels. It is beneficial to discuss the measurement process briefly beforehand to ensure everyone is comfortable and you are able to get an accurate measurement.

Chest: 

• Stand in a straight, natural position
• Lift your arms up, parallel to the ground
• Using a tape measure, wrap the tape around the fullest part of the chest
• Then, drop your arm down naturally to your waist and take the measurement from the side

Sleeves:

• Hold arms parallel to the floor
• Bend your arm slightly into the chest, towards the collarbone, to test the range of motion
• Start the tape measure at the base of the neck, then measure across to the shoulder
• Continue the tape measure down to the elbow, then down to the wristbone
• Measurement should end where you want the garment to sit at the cuffs, ensure your arms will be fully covered and protected while endings before extra fabric becomes a nuisance or hazard
