Sizing

Go by the measurements, not the label. Every listing includes flat garment measurements — pit-to-pit, length, waist and more where relevant.

The easiest way: lay a similar piece you own and love flat, measure it the same way and compare. Treat any size conversion as a starting point with a margin of one size in either direction.

  • Mens M / Womens S — clothing, tops and bottoms alike, is listed in an international letter size, converted from the label. Mens / Womens tells you which cut the size refers to.
  • EU 40 — footwear is always listed in European sizes.
  • One size — bags, accessories, eyewear and jewellery; dimensions are listed on the product page.

On every product page you’ll also find the labeled size — the size exactly as printed on the label, e.g. IT 44, FR 40 or 32/46.

Use these charts as a starting point — and always check the measurements on the product page. More on sizing in our sizing guide.

Unlike womenswear, menswear shares one numeric scale across Italy, France and Germany. UK and US jacket sizes both equal the chest measurement in inches. Note that Japanese menswear (e.g. Yohji Yamamoto, Undercover, Julius) is cut smaller — a JP 3 ≈ M on the label often fits like a slim M or S.

Italian tailored trousers are sometimes labelled with the jacket size instead (a “50” trouser ≈ W34). When in doubt, go by the waist measurement in cm on the product page.

Often, yes. Pieces from the ’80s–’00s typically run one to two sizes smaller than the same number today. Japanese menswear is cut smaller too, and Italian designer shoes often run about half a size small.

Many vintage Italian labels carry a double size like 24/38: the first number is the waist in inches, the second the Italian size — the one that converts.

By hand, with the garment laid flat:

  • Chest — straight across from armpit to armpit
  • Length — from the base of the collar down to the hem
  • Shoulder — straight across, seam to seam
  • Sleeve — from the shoulder seam to the end of the sleeve
  • Waist — buttoned, straight across the waistband
  • Inseam — from the crotch to the hem

Illustrations for every measurement are in our sizing guide.
