MAN / WOMAN

Finding the right size is easy. If you wish to buy a garment which covers the upper body, you must check your measurements in the TOPS table. If, on the other hand, you are interested in buying a pair of trousers, jeans or Bermuda shorts, you must look at the TROUSERS tables. Depending on the garment you intend to buy, there are several measures to be taken in direct contact with the body. Should the measurements taken not correspond exactly to a size in the table, we advise you to choose the slightly larger size in order to have greater freedom of movement.
N.B.:
The margin of production tolerance, in respect of the size, can be +/- 3%.
Cotton garments can undergo a natural size variation up to 5% after washing, even when this is correctly carried out according to the instructions on the internal label.

For Kid’s items we have created a single summary table to find the right size. The advice is the same as for adult items: should the measurements taken not correspond exactly to a size in the table, we advise you to choose the slightly larger size in order to have greater freedom of movement.

The circumference of the head must be measured with a soft tape measure, positioned approximately 2.5 cm above the eyebrows and 1 cm above the ears. For a correct choice it is advisable to always round up to the next centimetre. The adjustable one-size-fits-all items fit a wide range of sizes (see table).

UK and US sizes show the diameter of the headgear in inches, with a slight deviation.

 The EUR size refers to the last identified in Paris points. One Paris point equates to 2/3 of a centimetre; therefore, a last measuring 280 mm, equal to 28 cm, corresponds to a EUR size 42 (28x3=84 / 84:2=42). UK sizes refer to the English barleycorn Points system with a precise arithmetic progression. One English point corresponds to 1 barleycorn (1/3 inch), the size guide for adults starts from a value 0 which conventionally equates to 25 barleycorns (8 + 1/3 inches), therefore, if the shoe’s last is 280 mm long, equal to approx. “11 in”, it corresponds to a UK size 8 (11x3=33/33-25=8).
The US MAN size refers to the American Points system which follows a different arithmetical progression. Like the English point, the American one corresponds to 1/3 inch, but the American size guide starts from an initial value which conventionally equates to 8 + 7/12 inches, therefore, for the same length of the last, the American size is slightly higher than the English one (generally 0.5 more). The US WOMAN size is conventionally one number more than the US MAN one.
The Mondopoint system, defined by the ISO 9407:2019 standard, describes the essential characteristics of a footwear measuring system based on the length and width of the foot in mm. As concerns the length, the value for each size is approximately 10 mm less than the size of the last.
