Correspondence tables by clothing type

At Harold, our selection includes several European brands and mainly brands with Scandinavian inspiration. These brands may fit differently compared to French or international standards, notably Les Deux and Samsøe Samsøe.

However, this is not an absolute rule: some models fit normally.

To avoid any confusion, we try to specify as much as possible on each product page the specifics of the item (size, cut, ...). If you have any doubt or question, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Clothing

(T-shirts, shirts, polos, sweaters, jackets, coats)

Tops

To choose your tops well, measure your bust: place a tape measure under your armpits, flat and without tightening, then refer to the measurement in the chart.

Top selection

(Chinos, jeans, shorts, cargos)

Stockings

To measure, place the tape measure around your natural waist, at the level where you usually wear your pants, then refer to the chart.

Selection of stockings

(Blazers, pants, and vests)

The costumes

Generally, the sizes of our suits are expressed in "Italian size".

Tips:

- To find your suit blazer size, simply measure your chest circumference. The equivalences between systems (FR, IT, UK/US) are all based on this.

- For three-piece suit vests, generally plan for one size larger than the blazer.

Selection of suits

The shoes

The shoe size corresponds to the length of the foot in centimeters. To measure, place your foot on a sheet of paper, trace the outline, and measure the distance from the heel to the longest toe.

Shoe selection

Accessories

Belts

Belts are measured in centimeters, from the buckle to the middle hole. To choose, base yourself on your waist size or your pants size.

Selection of belts

Gloves

Gloves are measured around the hand, just below the finger joints, excluding the thumb (palm width).

To choose the right size, base yourself on the circumference of your hand and consult the corresponding chart. Contact us if needed.
