How to Measure Your Body
Collar Measure around the base of the neck where the collar sits. Allow one finger's width for comfort. This is the most crucial measurement for choosing the right size.
Chest Measure around the fullest part of your chest, under your arms. The tape should be horizontal and not too tight.
Sleeve With your arm slightly bent, measure from your shoulder to your wrist. You can use a well-fitting shirt as a reference.
Waist Measure around your natural waist, at the narrowest point of your torso. This is particularly relevant for tighter fits like Slim.
Fit Charts
The Regular fit offers a classic and comfortable drape, with room in the chest and waist. Suitable for daily wear, office, and for those who prefer freedom of movement. It is the most versatile fit in the Baccus catalog, suitable for most body types.
