Sizing Information for
machine-knits &
Bretons
Size exchanges can be a nuisance
but can, hopefully, be avoided if
you follow our sizing guidelines. If
possible, select a similar style of
knitwear or T-shirt which you
currently wear and feel comfortable
in, and measure across the chest,
from underarm to underarm, as
shown in the image above. Double
this measurement to arrive at the
actual garment size. Then compare
the measurement of your garment,
in inches, to the ones shown on
each product page.
Please do not confuse the
measurements we show on each
page with a person’s body
measurement; the measurements
listed are the actual dimensions of
our knitwear and Breton shirts.
A size 44 Guernsey sweater, for
example, will measure 44 inches all
round, but this does not fit a 44
inch chest, it will be suitable for
someone with a chest
measurement of 40 or 42 inches.
Please do take the time to measure
your own garments before you
order, to prevent size exchanges.
We keep our costs to a minimum,
to offer the best possible price, and
will have to pass on the cost of
return postage for exchanged
items.
