Understanding Sizes

US vs UK Clothing: UK sizes are typically 2 sizes smaller than US for women (US 8 = UK 12), same numbers for men

Asian Sizes: Generally run 1-2 sizes smaller than US/EU equivalents, especially for tops and outerwear

Shoe Size Systems: US women's shoes are 1.5 sizes larger than UK, men's are 0.5 larger. Asian uses cm foot length

Plus Sizes: Extended sizes (XXL, XXXL, 4XL, 5XL) follow same regional patterns but with wider measurement ranges

Tips & Strategies

Brand Variations: Always check individual brand size charts as fits can vary significantly between manufacturers

Shoe Shopping: Measure feet in evening when they're naturally swollen, and measure both feet as one may be larger

Between Sizes: Size up for comfort, especially for online international purchases where returns may be difficult

Customer Reviews: Read reviews about fit before purchasing from international sites, especially for Asian brands

Material Matters: Stretchy fabrics (cotton blends) allow smaller sizes, while stiff materials (denim) require larger sizes

Return Policy: Check return/exchange policies before buying from international sites, especially for shoes and fitted items

Size Inflation: Clothing sizes have gotten larger over time (vanity sizing), so vintage or designer items may fit smaller

Why do clothing sizes vary between countries?

Different countries developed sizing standards based on their population's average body measurements and cultural preferences, leading to significant variations.

How accurate are online size converters?

Size converters provide general guidelines based on standard measurements, but brands vary. Always check specific brand size charts and customer reviews for best results.
