How to choose your size

Measure a garment you already wear, not your body. Our size charts give the measurements of the garment laid flat. That is the mistake people make most: someone reads “59 cm”, thinks chest circumference, orders two sizes too large, and ends up with a sweater we cannot take back.

How do I measure my size?

Lay a sweater you wear often flat on a table and measure the width from armpit to armpit. Compare those centimetres with the size table on the product page — not with the size on your own label, which varies from brand to brand.

Take a sweater you wear often and whose fit suits you. Lay it flat on a table without stretching it. Measure the width just below the armholes, seam to seam.

Compare that figure directly with the A — Half chest row of our chart. If your sweater measures 55 cm under the arms, look for 55 in that row.

The B — Body length row is measured from the highest point of the shoulder to the bottom hem. It matters mainly if you like your sweaters on the short or long side.

What is the difference between the cuts?

Our garments come from Stanley/Stella, and three different patterns run through the collection:

• Changer 2.0 (unisex) — the straightest cut, from XXS to 5XL. It is the one used for the Club, Hockey, Tennis and Padel sweaters in their unisex version.
• Alma (women) — shorter and closer to the body than the unisex cut, from XS to XXL. The same person does not necessarily take the same letter in both.
• Mini Cruiser and Mini Changer (children) — the hoodie and the crew neck, from age 3-4 to 12-13.

A size M in Alma is therefore not a size M in Changer. Look at the centimetres, not the letter.

Which size do I take between two sizes?

If you fall between two sizes, take the larger one — except in the Alma cut.

The reason is simple: a sweater is worn over something else. A size that fits over a t-shirt becomes tight over a fleece, and you feel that margin on the first cold day.

The Alma cut is the exception because it is already fitted: it is designed to sit close to the body, and the size up costs it its line. Stay with your usual size.

How do I choose a size for a child?

Our children's sizes are written as “9-11 / 134-146 cm”. The age is only a guide, and often a misleading one: a nine-year-old does not necessarily have the standard size of a nine-year-old.

Measure their height standing against a wall and take the matching range in centimetres. If the child is growing fast, the upper range saves buying twice.

Why does the right size matter more here?

We hold no textile stock: each piece is made after your order, in your size. That is what avoids unsold garments and waste, but it has a consequence — a made-to-order garment cannot be returned, except if it is faulty.

So take the two minutes. If in doubt, write to [email protected] before ordering: we answer faster than an exchange takes.
