Steppin’ Out sizing

A great fit starts with the right size. Whether you’re looking for a shirt, trousers, jackets or a men’s coat: with the right measurements, it’s easy to choose a style that sits neatly and feels comfortable. On this page, you’ll find out how to measure yourself and what to look out for when finding your ideal size.

Which sizes does Steppin’ Out use?

Steppin’ Out uses different size formats depending on the garment type. You may come across EU sizes (48, 50, 52), international sizes (S, M, L and XL), inch sizing for trousers (W32 - L32) and specific collar sizes for shirts (39, 40, 41). As the fit can vary by style, we recommend always checking the size chart on the product page for the most accurate guidance.

How do you determine your clothing size?

If you’re unsure about your size, taking measurements is always the best starting point. Ideally, use a flexible tape measure and measure directly on the body or over thin clothing. Keep the tape straight and close to the body, without pulling it tight. Still not sure? You can have yourself measured by a tailor.

How to measure your size

• Chest
  Measure around the fullest part of the chest, just under the arms.
• Waist
  Measure your waist at the narrowest point of your midsection, usually just above the navel.
• Hips
  Measure around the fullest part of the hips and seat.
• Sleeve length
  Measure from the centre of your neck, over the shoulder and down the arm to the wrist.
• Inside leg length
  Measure from the crotch straight down to the ankle.

Frequently asked questions about sizing

How do I know which size I am?

Measure yourself and compare your measurements with the size chart on the product page. This gives you a clear idea of the size that best suits your build.

What should I do if I’m between two sizes?

That depends on how you prefer your clothes to fit. Choose the smaller size for a closer silhouette, or the larger size if you want a bit more freedom of movement.

Can I order two sizes and return one for free?

We recommend measuring carefully in advance. That way, you can make the right choice more easily and help reduce unnecessary returns.

Do all garments fit the same?

No, the fit can vary by item and by style. That’s why it’s best to always use the size chart for the specific product as your reference.

How tightly should I measure?

Measure calmly and naturally. The tape should sit neatly against the body, but shouldn’t be pulled tight.

I don’t have a flexible tape measure. How can I still measure myself?

Use a piece of string or cord, then lay it against a ruler or tape measure. This still allows you to determine the measurement accurately.

What matters more: size or fit?

Both matter. Size determines whether a garment fits properly, while the fit affects how it drapes and how it looks.
