Xxl what size is a men's jacket? How to determine your pants size

The most accurate way to determine the size of trousers is to try them on. Unfortunately, there is no try-on option when you order clothes from an online store. When purchasing online, you need to know exactly what your markings are, otherwise the pants will take up an eternal place in the closet, because no one wants to experience discomfort when wearing a piece of clothing.

Solve the problem and accurately determine the dimensions men's pants The table will help, because it is easy to compare international and Russian markings. In addition, the table contains sizes in inches, which is useful if you are buying English-made trousers.

Instructions for the table

size table men's trousers easy to use and will help you accurately choose the size of your pants without trying on. You can use it in two ways. The first option is a comparison of Russian and international sizes, as well as English markings in inches. Let's say your Russian size is 48. Look at the Russian size range with the number 48 and see that it corresponds to the international marking M or waist circumference in inches W 33-34.

You don’t need to do any complicated calculations, and you can choose the exact size of your pants using the table in a minute. All you have to do is find models in the online store that have your markings and make a purchase. If previously you didn’t know how to find out the size of your pants, then you can stop at comparing the markings.

Waist circumference

For more precise definition size, you will have to pick up a flexible centimeter and measure your waist circumference. There are two measurement options here. The first is measuring old trousers, the second is measuring the waist. In the first case, take old trousers, pull them across the width at the waist and measure the distance between extreme points. After this, multiply the result by 2, get the waist circumference in centimeters and compare it with the dimensions of the table. Waist circumference 81-86 corresponds to Russian size 46/48, English marking 32/34 or international designation M.

If you are measuring old trousers, either do not stretch them too far in width when measuring, or subtract one size since the trousers are already stretched. Without doing this, you will buy trousers that will fit you too loosely and the belt will not be used as an accessory, but for its intended purpose.

Determining size by height

As for choosing a size based on height, you need to measure the length of the inner seam of the trousers. Manufacturers indicate it in inches or centimeters, but there may also be a designation in words, for example, Short is a seam length of 76 cm or 30 inches. To select a size based on your height, measure the seam length on old pants or ask your wife to measure your leg from groin to floor.

The size chart for men is a lifesaver for those who want to shop in online stores. It is easy to use, and the likelihood of buying the wrong type of pants is minimized.

A table of men's trouser sizes will help you choose the right marking, which indicates:

  1. Russian size,
  2. Waist and hip circumference,
  3. Marking of England, Italy, USA and Europe.

A size chart for men is a good help when purchasing, because with its help you can reduce the likelihood of purchasing the wrong size to zero. In the table, everything is simple: take your waist circumference and select the trouser size according to it, taking into account the marking of the country of the clothing manufacturer. There is a second option - look at the size on your old trousers and select the markings of another manufacturer to match it.


Russian sizes are numbered from 44 to 70, the English marking is marked UK and the size range is 32-62, and the sizes in the USA are marked US and are marked 34-64. There are also international sizes, they are designated by Roman numerals from XXS to 5XL. All this is clearly visible in the size table.

Selecting the markings of trousers

For example, you wear trousers with the English marking UK 36, but want to buy trousers made in Italy. In this case, the Italian marking 46 is suitable for you, but if the trousers are made in the USA, then order US size 38. Everything is simple, because using the table and comparing the markings you can easily select any size of men's pants.

It is somewhat more difficult to find out the markings of pants if the size in old trousers is worn out and invisible. In this case, you will have to pick up a measuring tape and measure your waist (preferably your hip circumference). The waist is wrapped with a tape parallel to the floor, while the stomach should not be protruded or retracted, and the tape itself should not be pulled too tightly.

Suppose your waist has a girth of 94 cm. We look at the table and see that the girth corresponds to the Russian marking 52, UK 40, US 42 or the international standard L.

We figured out how to find out the size of pants by waist, all that remains is to decide on the length of the pants, because everyone’s height is different. Manufacturers indicate the length of the pants on the trousers, and not the height of the person, so you need to measure the old trousers along the length or measure the distance from the waist to the floor. An assistant will not be superfluous here; if he is not there, but you want to make a purchase right now, then proceed in the following way.

Take a tape measure; at the beginning there is a bend that you need to press with your foot to the floor. After this, stretch the tape measure to the waist and look at the length of the pant leg. This option is suitable only as a last resort; it is better to have your wife or friend try you on, this way it is easier to accurately determine the exact marking of the trousers by length.

Pants are an indispensable part men's wardrobe and should be in the closet of any representative of the stronger sex. At the same time, every man knows how difficult it can sometimes be to choose men's trousers of the right size, especially when you have to buy them without trying them on, for example, when shopping online.

Today we will tell you how to correctly determine your size of men's trousers and accurately choose the model that suits you.

How to determine your pants size

If, as a rule, there are no problems with Russian sizes, then when buying clothes from foreign manufacturers, most people get confused by incomprehensible markings. Most often, other digital or letter designations are used on clothes made by foreign companies.

They are quite easy to understand. You can do this using a table of trouser sizes for men.

In order to correctly determine the size of trousers for men using this table, you need to know your measurements or your Russian size. In this case, the first “landmark” is considered more accurate, since your size could have changed over time last purchase. In addition, it is possible that your parameters correspond, for example, to standard size 50, and the manufacturer mistakenly sewed a label with the number 52 on your trousers.

That is why it is advisable to start any purchase by taking appropriate measurements. To purchase trousers, you need to know your waist and hip circumference, as well as the length of the legs along the inseam.

You can find out the necessary parameters in two ways.

  1. If you have an assistant, ask him to measure the width of your waist, as well as your hips, in the area where your buttocks protrude most. Then, using a measuring tape, you need to measure the distance from the groin to the end of the intended trouser leg. You will not be able to take these measurements yourself, since you must stand straight during fitting. Also, when taking measurements, you should not pull in your stomach, bend over, bend your knees, etc.
  2. In the event that there is no one to help you, you can do differently. Open your closet and choose trousers that fit you well and suit all your needs. Lay them on a flat surface and measure the width of the waistband, as well as the hips, that is, the place where the trousers “sit” on the buttocks. Multiply each number by two. Then also measure the length of the inseam of one of the legs. We do not multiply this indicator, but leave it in its “pristine” form.

Now you know all your parameters and can easily navigate the size tables.

At the same time, do not forget in any case that when purchasing, not only the size of the trousers is important, but also the height they are designed for. As a rule, the markings on them look like this: 52/170, where the first indicator indicates the size, and the second indicates the man’s height. Russian height markings on trousers are set in increments of 4 centimeters. You can also find out which size is right for you using the tables.

When buying sweatpants, you don’t have to use a table of men’s trouser sizes, but determine it using the formula: waist circumference/2+6. That is, if your waist is 97 cm, then, after rounding, it turns out that your size is 54. Looking at the table, you can see that this is the correct result.

However, this method of calculating sizes is only suitable when buying sports pants that are fastened with an elastic band and can forgive a mistake of 2-3 centimeters when determining the required size marking.

How to buy trousers from foreign manufacturers

Here you can also use the table above to guide you. However, when purchasing imported trousers, you may encounter a different type of size marking - W30L32.

In this situation, you can determine your size in two ways:

  1. method: Convert your parameters from centimeters to inches by dividing the numbers by 2.54. This way you will get the necessary indicators. W is the waist circumference, and L is the length of the legs along the inseam.
  2. method: Check your data (in centimeters) with a special table of men's jeans sizes.

Size chart by height

When determining your foreign size of men's trousers, keep in mind that size markings may depend not only on the country where they were sewn, but also on the manufacturer.

The problem is that many, especially small companies engaged in production men's clothing(trousers, jeans, shorts...) often deviate from the standard sizes in their lines.

Therefore, the surest way to buy the “right” trousers is to study the size charts of their direct manufacturer. Most often, such information can be found on the company’s website or online stores where its products are presented.

What should be the ideal trousers for men?

  • Men's trousers should not tightly fit the buttocks, but at the same time, it is considered wrong for them to hang on a man like a curtain on a curtain rod. Look for the “golden mean”;
  • It is unacceptable for the pockets on your pants to become very protruding;
  • Classic trousers should barely cover a man's heel in length. That is, when he stands straight, the heel of his shoe should be visible. In this case, it is necessary that the trousers “go” exactly along the man’s leg and do not form an “accordion” of several folds at the bottom. Also, socks should not be visible when walking;
  • When buying trousers, you need to take into account your body shape. A tall and thin man should choose a model with cuffs and without arrows. But for short representatives of the stronger sex, on the contrary, it is better to buy pants without cuffs and with clearly defined arrows. Overweight men it is advisable to opt for enough wide pants, which should not have arrows.

Take it to yourself:

And, of course, when putting on classic trousers, we must not forget that, unlike jeans, they oblige a man to have appropriate shoes and a “top”. It is no longer acceptable to wear a T-shirt or a “fancy” pullover with them. And of course, trousers should always be clean and well ironed.
