For the Most Precise Result
- Use a flexible fabric measuring tape and keep it parallel to the floor.
- Have another person take your shoulder and sleeve measurements for accuracy.
- Wear light clothing similar to what you intend to wear beneath your jacket.
- State all measurements in centimetres or inches clearly.
- Specify if you intend to layer heavy knitwear beneath your leather jacket.
