Waterproof Bike Jacket Sizing Guides
Please be aware that jackets made for cycling are small in sizing & fit. YOU MUST MEASURE to get the correct size. The size you measure to will probably be a larger size than you normally buy.

Jacket/Vest Fit
To get the right size jacket you must measure.
CHEST MEASUREMENT..To do this place a tape measure around the chest and make sure the tape is level all the way around. Measure the circumference at the widest part of your upper chest just under your arm pits.
WAIST MEASUREMENT..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 place the tape measure around your waist at your crease point (usually the narrowest part of your torso).
HIP MEASUREMENT…place the end of the tape on your waist. Let the tape run down the length of your body – take the hip measurement 18cm down from this point.
SLEEVE MEASUREMENT…To help with size choice you can take a sleeve length measurement from the boney point on at the head of your should joint down the outside of your arm to the top of your hand. Look for your wrist lines made when you move your hand up & down.
Take the measurement in centimetres. If you don’t have a tape measure use string or wool then lie this along a ruler.
Size Choice
Consider how you would like to use your jacket when selecting size. A fitted jacket can be hard to wear with lots of layers underneath it. If you want to layer under your jacket or feel like you have room to move consider whether you should go up a size. If you measure between sizes also think about this.
