How do you measure what size topcoat to wear?

Chest

- Measure around the fullest part of the chest, with the tape measure passing under the armpits and around the shoulder blades.

- Ensure that the tape measure is snug, but not too tight.

Sleeves

- Bend your arm slightly at the elbow, with your palm facing toward your chest.

- Measure from the base of the sleeve to the cuff, running the tape measure along the top of your arm.

Length

- Stand up straight and relaxed.

- Measure from the base of the collar to the desired hem length.

Back

- Measure the length down your spine from between the shoulder blades to where the topcoat will end.

Once you have taken these measurements, you can compare them to a size chart provided by the topcoat manufacturer to find the best fit.
