What Is Clothing Size Converter?

A clothing size converter translates between US, UK, and European sizing systems for general apparel. Clothing sizes are not standardized globally — a US medium is not the same as an EU medium. Women's sizing differs dramatically between regions: US 6 ≈ UK 10 ≈ EU 36. Men's sizing tends to be more consistent (often based on chest measurements) but still varies. This converter provides standard equivalence tables from XS through 5XL for both men's and women's clothing, using widely accepted industry mappings.

  • Ranges from XS to 5XL.

Technical Guide

Clothing size systems: Women's: • US 0 ≈ UK 4 ≈ EU 32 • US 4 ≈ UK 8 ≈ EU 36 • US 8 ≈ UK 12 ≈ EU 40 • US 12 ≈ UK 16 ≈ EU 44 The US-UK offset for women is approximately 4 sizes (UK = US + 4). The EU-US offset is approximately 30 (EU ≈ US + 30). Men's sizing is generally based on chest circumference in inches (US/UK) or centimeters (EU). A US/UK medium (38-40 inch chest) corresponds to EU 50-52. Letter sizes (XS-5XL) provide a simplified international reference, though the actual measurements they represent vary significantly between brands. Fast fashion brands tend to run larger; European luxury brands tend to run smaller.

Tips & Best Practices

  • 1
    Women's: US + 4 ≈ UK size. US + 30 ≈ EU size.

    Men's: US and UK sizes are often the same (chest inches). EU = US + ~10.
  • 3
    Asian sizes (JP, KR) typically run 1-2 sizes smaller than US/EU.
  • 4
    Always check the brand's specific size chart — "vanity sizing" varies widely.
  • 5
    When in doubt between two sizes, order the larger one.
