Getting the right fit is key to feeling confident and comfortable on the tennis court. To help you pick the perfect size in Love Tennis apparel, we’ve put together this simple guide to taking your measurements accurately at home.
What You’ll Need:
- A flexible measuring tape (like a sewing tape)
- A mirror (optional, but helpful)
- A notepad to record your measurements
- A friend to help (optional, but can make measurements easier!)
Step 1: Measure Your Bust/Chest
- Wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest/bust.
- Make sure the tape is snug but not tight, and that it’s parallel to the floor.
- Breathe normally and record the measurement in inches or centimeters.
Step 2: Measure Your Waist
- Find the narrowest part of your waist — usually just above your belly button.
- Wrap the tape around this area, keeping it comfortably snug.
- Record the measurement.
Step 3: Measure Your Hips
- Stand with your feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks.
- Ensure the tape stays level and doesn’t dig into your skin.
- Write down this number.
Step 4: Measure Your Inseam (for shorts or pants)
- Measure from the top inside of your leg (crotch area) down to your ankle or where you want the shorts/pants to end.
- You can do this measurement while standing or sitting.
Step 5: Measure Your Arm Length (for long sleeves)
- Place the tape at the center back of your neck, stretch it over your shoulder, and down to your wrist.
- Keep your arm slightly bent for accuracy.
Tips for Accurate Measurements:
- Wear lightweight or form-fitting clothing while measuring.
- Stand straight but relaxed.
- Don’t pull the tape too tight or let it hang loose.
- Measure twice to ensure accuracy.
- Compare your measurements to our Love Tennis Size Guide for the best fit.
