Your coat size is determined based on a number of factors. If you have a suit jacket that fits you well, refer to the size on the tag. If you do not know your coat size, please refer to our Tuxedo Size Guide.

If you have access to a measuring tape, have a friend measure from your armpit down the inner-side of your arm to just past the wrist bone. The resulting measurement is the insleeve size. If you cannot get your insleeve measurement, that's okay - the field is optional, but does help ensure that your tux is sized appropriately.

How do I get my Waist Size?

While not wearing a belt, have a friend measure around your waist, where your comfortable having your pants normally sit. Be sure to pull the tape measure very tight (trust us!) This measurement will be your pant waist size.

What is my jeans waist size?

The waist size you select when buying your jeans or the number printed on the size tag of your jeans. If your jeans size is 36-30, then "36" is your jeans waist size. The latter number, ("30" in our example), is your pant length (inseam).

You can find your inseam on your jeans size. For instance, if you wear a size 36-30 jeans, the latter number (in this example, '30') is your inseam. To get a measurement, have a friend measure from your pant-crotch, down the inside of your leg, stopping at where your pants end. This is your pant inseam measurement.

Have your friend measure from the top of your pants at your outer waist, down your outer leg, to the end of your pants. This is your pant outseam measurement.

Place the tape measure around the widest part of your hips, and continue wrapping down around the biggest part of your buttocks. We know it sounds silly, but this will ensure that your trousers are the perfect fit for you. This measurement is also typically 6" more than your waist measurement.

Have a friend wrap a measuring tape around the middle of your neck, where a shirt collar would lay. While the tape is around your neck, place two fingers against your neck beneath the tape - the resulting measurement is your neck size.

Have your friend place the measuring tape at the nape (center of the back of your neck, shoulder height - click to view) and guide it over your shoulder and down the outer edge of t your arm, stopping just past your wrist bone. The resulting measurement will be your sleeve length.

Arm length is typically relative to your height, though some people are exceptions to this rule and differ significantly in this respect. Sharing this information with us gives context to your sleeve measurement that will be helpful to our sizing staff.

Required, Even If You Arent Getting Shoes.
Our tuxedo shoe sizing runs similar to other mens shoe sizes. If you are unsure of your shoe size, check a pair of shoes that fit you well, the size is usually printed on the inside tongue of the shoe, or on the insole.

Measure from the top of your head to the floor while standing straight with your shoulders relaxed. Also, if your drivers license or state identification is current, you may also use the height information as an indication of your height.

If you do not have access to a scale at home, you can estimate by using your last recorded weight and take into consideration any changes your body has gone through since that time.
