CUSTOM MEASUREMENT GUIDE

Accurate measurements are the foundation of the refined fit, comfort, and sophistication that define every Gentleman’s Guru garment. Please follow this guide carefully to capture all 12 required measurements. Once completed, enter your details into the designated fields on the product page to finalize your order.

Professional Recommendations

• Expert Assistance: We highly recommend visiting a professional seamstress or tailor (often found at local dry cleaners). Alternatively, you may have another individual assist you using this guide.
• Gentleman’s Guru Specifics: Please do not use measurements provided by other menswear retailers. Their sizing methods may not align with the specific requirements needed to produce our custom garments.
• Exact Figures Only: Do not add “extra room” or “vanity inches” to your measurements. Providing exact body measurements ensures we can engineer the perfect tailored fit for you.

General Tips

• The Two-Finger Rule: Keep the tape snug but not tight; you should be able to fit two fingers behind it.
• Posture: Stand naturally. Do not suck in your stomach or puff out your chest.
• Level Tape: Ensure the tape measure remains parallel to the floor for all horizontal measurements.

Upper Body

• Chest: Measure around the widest part, under the arms and across the shoulder blades.
• Shoulder: Measure from one arm joint, across the back, to the opposite arm joint.
• Sleeve: Start at the shoulder curve, follow the arm down, and end 1" past the wrist bone.
• Bicep: Measure the widest part of the upper arm while the muscle is relaxed.
• Jacket Length: Measure from where the neck meets the shoulder down to your desired length. (Must be longer than the sleeve measurement).

Lower Body & Torso

• Waist: Measure where your pants naturally sit. Note: This is often different from your retail pant size.
• Belly: Measure 3" above the belly button, at the natural curve of the torso.
• Hip: Measure the widest part of the hips, including the fullest part of the buttocks.
• Thigh: Measure 2–3" below the groin area, wrapping fully around the leg.
• Pant Outseam: Measure from the natural waistline down the outside of the leg to your desired hem.
