Hoodie Size by Height and Weight: How to Use Them

Lots of people search for a hoodie size by height and weight. They are a decent starting point, but they leave out the measurement that matters most.

What height tells you

Height mostly tells you about length: how long the body and sleeves should be. If you are taller than average, check the length and sleeve measurements on the size chart as well as the width.

What weight tells you

Weight gives a rough idea of width, but two people at the same weight can have very different builds. Broad shoulders and a slim waist fit differently to the opposite.

What to use instead

Chest measurement. Wrap a tape around the fullest part of your chest and compare it with the size chart. See how to measure chest size for a hoodie.

Then adjust for fit

Stay with your size for a regular fit, size up for relaxed or oversized. See relaxed fit vs regular fit.

Check the garment measurements

Brands cut differently. Compare the hoodie's actual measurements with one you own and love.
