Movement Underwear Sizing Guide

Movement goUnders are designed to be worn for movement and exercise. They are a firm fit to keep the underwear in place… so measuring is important.

How to Measure for Correct Size

Movement goUnders are made from Re-Activate Nylon/Elastane and Micro Mesh which have a great four way stretch so that you will be comfortable and able to move freely. 

To get the right size you need to know your waist & hip measurements. The best way to measure is with a tape measure. If you don’t have a tape measure use a piece of string or some wool then lay this out along a ruler.


How to find your waist measurement
Firstly you will need to find your waist. To find the natural crease line of your waist stand straight with hands at the side.  Then bend sideways running the hand down the outside surface of the leg.  This movement will produce a crease at the waist so place your measuring tape on this crease.  Return to standing straight and wrap the measuring tape around your body at your waist point.  Take care to keep the measuring tape at the same height all the way around your body.

Your hip measurement is found…  approximately 18cm down from the waist.  From where you took your waist measurement let the measuring tape hang down the length of your body.  At approximately 18cm wrap the tape around.  Everyone has a different shape so try to find the widest part of your body.

Common Questions

I measure between sizes.

We would recommend the larger size. The fabric of goUnders provides a good amount of stretch and compression. The larger size will be more comfortable to wear and still provide the firmness needed to hold the underwear in place. 

My hip & waist measurements are different sizes.

goUnders are designed to be a firm fit so we would suggest going with the larger of the two sizes you measure at, especially if the larger size is your waist measurement.
