Real garments vary a lot by brand and cut — vanity sizing, fit, and country all shift the numbers. When you can, go by the actual chest, waist, and hip measurements on the maker's size chart rather than the label alone.

How it works

Every region numbers clothes differently. A women's US 8 is a UK 12 and an EU 40; a men's medium chest of 40 inches is an EU 50. This tool keeps a standard chart for each so you don't have to memorize the offsets.

Choose whether you're shopping for women or men, tell it which system your known size is in, and pick that size. It reads across the row and shows you the US, UK, and EU equivalents plus the S/M/L label.

Women's sizes run on a numeric scale that steps by two; men's tops are driven by chest measurement, which is why the men's options show the chest inches alongside the letter.

Frequently asked questions

Why does a US 8 become a UK 12?

The UK and US women's scales simply start from different points, with the UK number running about four higher. It's a labeling difference, not a difference in the actual garment.

Are men's and women's charts different?

Yes. Women's sizes use a numeric scale that maps to a body's bust, waist, and hip. Men's tops are built around chest measurement, so this tool switches charts when you change the gender.

Can I trust the S/M/L result?

It's a good rule of thumb, but S/M/L is the loosest label of all and varies most between brands. When precision matters, go by the numeric size and the maker's own measurements.
