What Is a Clothing Size Converter?
A clothing size converter translates garment sizes between different national sizing systems. Shopping internationally or online from foreign retailers requires understanding how US, UK, EU, and Asian sizing relate to each other. This tool converts sizes for shirts, pants, dresses, jackets, and other garments for both men and women, helping you avoid ordering the wrong size.
How Clothing Sizing Works
US women's sizes typically run 0-16+, UK sizes are generally 4 sizes higher (US 6 = UK 10), and EU sizes are approximately 28-30 sizes higher (US 6 = EU 36). Men's shirt sizes may use S/M/L or collar measurements. Sizing varies significantly between brands, so these conversions are approximate guidelines rather than exact matches.
How to Use This Converter
Select your gender, garment type, and the sizing system you know. Enter your size and click Convert to see equivalent sizes in all other systems. A comprehensive size chart is also displayed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do clothing sizes vary between brands?
There is no universal sizing standard. Each brand defines its own fit. Vanity sizing (labeling clothes with smaller numbers than actual measurements) also causes inconsistency.
How do I convert US to EU women's sizes?
Generally, add 30 to the US size. US 6 = EU 36, US 8 = EU 38, US 10 = EU 40. This is an approximation and may vary by brand.
What does S, M, L, XL mean in measurements?
These letter sizes vary by brand but generally: S fits chest 34-36 inches, M fits 38-40, L fits 42-44, XL fits 46-48 for men. Women's letter sizes correspond to different number ranges.
