How to Choose Your Size
Start With Your Measurements
Measure your body, then compare your numbers with the relevant chart. For tops, start with chest. For pants and shorts, start with waist. For women’s bottoms, check both waist and hip.
Think About the Fit
Rugby clothing can vary by style and use. Training gear, jerseys, outerwear, and casual layers may feel different depending on fabric, cut, and how you plan to wear them.
If You Are Between Sizes
If your measurements sit between two sizes, choose the smaller size for a closer fit or the larger size for more room to move or layer underneath.
Check the Product Details
Always review the individual product page before ordering. A product description may include fit notes, fabric details, or style-specific guidance that can help you decide.
Measuring Tips
- Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape straight and flat.
- Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your waist, keeping the tape straight and flat.
- Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips, keeping the tape straight and flat.
- Head circumference: Measure around the head where the headguard will sit, keeping the tape level.
- Footwear: Compare your usual shoe size with the footwear conversion table and check the product page for any style-specific fit notes.
For the best result, use a flexible measuring tape and measure over light clothing. If possible, ask someone else to help so the tape stays level and accurate.
