CASHMERE SWEATER SIZING GUIDE
The sizing of our Cashmere Sweaters and Cardigans refers to a Gentleman's chest measurement. Our garments are designed to give a comfortable 'Classic' fit with approximately 4 inches of additional space over the chest area.
Therefore, we advise ordering the comparative size to your own chest measurement. The measurement should be taken just under the arms and closely around the body. For instance, if your chest measures 44 inches (112cm) we would advise ordering a size 44 Cashmere Sweater. You will find that this measures 48" giving you the previously mentioned extra room for comfort.
If you prefer a more fitted garment we recommend that you order a size smaller than your chest measurement to suit your preference.
If you wish to place an order but are unsure of your size, why not measure your favourite sweater? Lay it flat and measure across the chest from armpit to armpit. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you require any further clarification on sizing before placing an order.
