Size Guide
Measure once. Order once.
How to measure
Measure a garment you already own and wear often, laid flat, rather than measuring your body. It is the more reliable method and it tells you how a piece will actually sit on you.
Chest
Lay the garment flat and measure across from armpit to armpit. Double the figure.
Length
From the highest point of the shoulder seam straight down to the hem.
Waist
Measure across the waistband edge to edge with the trousers flat. Double the figure.
Inseam
From the crotch seam down the inner leg to the hem.

Substitute the real measurements for your garments before publishing. Accurate tables are the single most effective way to reduce size-related returns.

Measuring your foot
Stand on a sheet of paper in the evening, when the foot is at its largest. Mark heel and longest toe, measure the distance, and compare with the table above. Measure both feet and use the larger.
Between sizes?
Knitwear — size up. Cashmere and merino relax slightly with wear, and the intended line is clean rather than tight.
Linen — stay true to size. Linen already carries volume in the cut.
Footwear — for loafers and mules, size down if you are between. For sneakers, size up.
Still uncertain? Send your usual size in [MARCA DE REFERENCIA] to support@calvieri.com and we will tell you which size to take.
