Fit Guide
Fit, made simple
Great fit shouldn’t feel like a puzzle. HUMANCHIC pieces are designed to look polished, move easily, and stay comfortable in real life—work, weekends, and travel.
Before you buy, do two quick things:
1. Check the Fit type (Classic, Tailored, Relaxed, Athletic)
2. Compare your measurements to the garment chart
Because we’re made-to-order, choosing the right fit upfront saves time and avoids returns.

1) Choose your fit type
Classic Fit (Default)
Best for: everyday wear, most body types, easy layering
Feel: balanced—neither tight nor oversized
If you’re between sizes: choose the size that matches your chest/bust measurement.
Tailored Fit
Best for: sharper look, clean lines, office-to-after
Feel: closer through the torso, more structured silhouette
If you’re between sizes: size up for comfort, especially if you prefer breathing room at the waist/hips.
Relaxed Fit
Best for: off-duty, travel, campus, easy movement
Feel: more room through the body, effortless drape
If you want a cleaner look: choose your true size.
If you like a roomier vibe: size up.
Athletic Fit
Best for: broader shoulders, fuller chest, more room where it matters
Feel: accommodates upper body or thighs without looking boxy
If you’re between sizes: choose based on your largest measurement (chest/hips).
2) How to measure (takes 60 seconds)
Use a flexible measuring tape. Keep it snug, not tight.
Chest/Bust: around the fullest part
Waist: around your natural waist
Hips: around the fullest part of your hips/seat
Shoulder: shoulder tip to shoulder tip
Sleeve: shoulder seam to wrist
Inseam (if applicable): crotch seam to hem
Pro tip: measure a favorite item you already own and compare it to our garment measurements. That’s the fastest way to get it right.
3) What matters most by item
T-Shirts
Focus on: chest/bust + length
· Prefer a cleaner look? Choose Classic.
· Want more ease? Choose Relaxed.
Polos
Focus on: chest/bust + shoulders
Polos should sit neatly at the shoulder. If it pulls at the chest, size up.
Hoodies
Focus on: chest/bust + sleeve length
If you plan to layer, go Classic or size up once.
Jackets
Focus on: chest/bust + shoulders + sleeve
Jackets need shoulder comfort. If shoulders feel tight, size up.
Skirts (Women)
Focus on: waist + hips
If your waist and hips fall into different sizes, choose based on hips for comfort and movement.
Tote Bags / Clutches & Small Bags
Fit isn’t the issue—function is. Check the dimensions and what it holds (laptop, tablet, daily essentials).
4) Between sizes? Use this rule
· If you want closer, sharper: choose the smaller size (Tailored).
· If you want more comfort or layering: choose the larger size (Classic/Relaxed).
· If one measurement is clearly larger (chest/hips): choose the size that fits your largest measurement.

5) Made-to-order note (important)
Each piece is produced when you order it. That reduces waste and keeps our catalog lean.
It also means sizing carefully is the best way to ensure a smooth experience.
