Leather Jacket Size Guide

Leather Jacket Size Guide

Answer first: measure your chest (men) or bust (women) at the fullest point, over light clothing, and match it to the charts below. At Hide Atelier the chart is only your starting point — on every product page you can edit the chest, waist, shoulder, sleeve and length, and your jacket is made to the numbers you confirm.

How to measure

  1. Chest / bust: tape under the arms, around the fullest part, keeping the tape level.
  2. Waist: around your natural waistline.
  3. Shoulder: seam to seam across the back of a jacket that fits you, or across your back.
  4. Sleeve: shoulder point to wrist, arm slightly bent.
  5. Length: base of the collar to the hem.

Between sizes?

  • Size up for biker/moto styles (usually worn over layers) and for shearling-lined jackets.
  • Slim cafe racer styles are cut tight — size up if you are between sizes.
  • Or skip the dilemma: edit the measurements on the product page and get exactly your fit.

Your measurements, your jacket

Every Hide Atelier order takes your own measurements — chest, waist, shoulder, sleeve and length — on the product page itself. Country size is only the starting reference; the garment is made to the measurements in your order. Ordering something fully bespoke? The Custom Leather Jackets page takes your measurements with your design.
