Garment measurements, laid flat, in centimeters. A half-measurement reads doubled: 54 cm of half-chest makes 108 cm around.
How to measure yourself
Tour de poitrine
Le mètre passe sous les bras, sur la partie la plus forte, et revient à plat dans le dos. On respire normalement, on ne serre pas.
Tour de taille
À l’endroit le plus creux, au-dessus du nombril. Pour un jean taille basse, mesurez plutôt là où vous le portez réellement.
Longueur devant
Du haut de l’épaule, près du col, jusqu’au bas du vêtement. C’est ce que la colonne « longueur DVT » indique dans nos tableaux.
Longueur de manche
De la couture d’épaule au bord du poignet, bras légèrement plié. Sur un t-shirt, la manche courte se mesure de la même façon.
The house chart

Choosing well, by family
Jeans & pants
Our jean sizes are American inches: a 32 corresponds to a stated waist of 32 inches. The chart gives the half-waist measured flat — double it to get the actual circumference of the garment.
On a heavy 15 oz cloth, the waistband hardly relaxes: take your actual waist measurement, with two to four centimeters of ease. On raw, unsanforized denim, expect one to one and a half centimeters of shrinkage at the first wash: so it is better not to size down.
Between two sizes on a straight cut, take the larger. A waist can be taken in; a thigh that is too tight cannot be fixed.
Jackets, blousons & coats
A jacket is worn over something. Our measurements are those of the garment laid flat: add four to six centimeters of ease to your chest measurement if you wear it over a knit, more over a thick sweater.
It is the only family where we advise rounding up when in doubt. A shoulder that is too narrow restricts the arm and cannot be altered.
Shirts & overshirts
A shirt is chosen on the half-chest and the front length. Take your usual size to wear it tucked into your trousers.
An overshirt is a light jacket: if you plan to wear it over a thick T-shirt or a knit, go up a size. Do the same for a deliberately loose look.
T-shirts, sweaters & sweatshirts
Look at the front length as much as the chest: it is what decides the look. Our tops are cut straight, without shaping.
Washed cotton knits and jerseys move little, but a first wash at thirty degrees is safer than a hot wash, especially for length.
Beanies, belts & accessories
Beanies are one size. Belts are chosen by the waist measurement of the trousers you wear, not by your bare waist.
If in doubt about an accessory, write to us: we measure the piece and reply within the day.
