How to Measure
To ensure you select the correct size from Patrick's range, follow these measurement instructions carefully. All measurements should be taken whilst wearing minimal clothing for accuracy.
- Chest Measurement: Wrap a soft measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape parallel to the ground. Keep the tape snug but not tight, and ensure it passes straight across your back. Record the measurement in inches or centimetres.
- Waist Measurement: Measure around your natural waist (the narrowest part), typically just above your hip bones. Keep the tape comfortably loose without pulling, and stand in a relaxed posture. This measurement is crucial for trouser and shorts sizing.
- Inseam/Leg Length: Wearing shoes with a minimal heel, measure from the inside of your ankle (where a trouser naturally sits) up to your groin along the inside seam of your leg. Alternatively, measure your full inseam by standing on a hard surface with legs slightly apart, then measuring from your crotch to the floor and subtracting 1 inch for the natural break of a trouser.
- Shoe Fit: Measure your foot length by standing on a piece of paper with your heel against a wall. Mark the longest point of your toes and measure from the wall to the mark in centimetres. Measure both feet, as they may differ in size. Purchase shoes that fit your larger foot.
- Timing: Take measurements in the afternoon or evening when your feet are slightly swollen from daily activity. This ensures a more accurate fit, as feet naturally expand throughout the day.
- Cross-Reference: Once you have your measurements, refer to the appropriate size chart below. If your measurements fall between two sizes, consider your preference for fit and the specific product description, as some styles may run tighter or looser than others.

Product-Specific Sizing Notes
Patrick produces a diverse range of athletic and casual products, each with its own fit characteristics. Understanding these nuances will help you select the ideal size for your needs.
Trainers & Footwear
Patrick's trainers are designed with a supportive, true-to-size fit. The brand's heritage trainers feature a classic silhouette that suits most foot shapes. If you are between sizes, consider that Patrick trainers offer excellent ankle support, which may feel snug initially; most customers find they break in comfortably within a few wears. For those with wider feet, Patrick typically cuts their shoes with a medium width, so if you have particularly wide feet, you may wish to size up half a size for added comfort.
T-Shirts & Tops
Patrick's t-shirts and tops are cut with a contemporary, slightly fitted silhouette that flatters without restricting movement. If you prefer a roomier fit, consider sizing up from your usual chest measurement. The brand's athletic wear is designed to sit close to the body, providing mobility for sporting activities. Check individual product descriptions for details on cut and fit, as some styles may feature a more relaxed or technical fit.
Tracksuits & Jogging Bottoms
Patrick's tracksuit bottoms and jogging trousers are designed with a tapered leg and sit at the natural waist. Always refer to the inseam measurement on the product page, as leg lengths can vary between styles. If you are taller than average, ensure that the inseam reaches your ankle bone with approximately half an inch of natural break. For those purchasing from outside the UK, note that Patrick's inseam measurements are provided in both imperial and metric units for clarity.
Sizing Tips
- Measure in the afternoon: Your feet naturally swell throughout the day due to activity and gravity. Measuring or trying on shoes in the afternoon or evening will ensure a more accurate fit than morning measurements. This is particularly important when purchasing footwear, as a shoe that fits perfectly in the evening may feel tight in the morning.
- Account for half sizes: Patrick offers sizes in both full and half increments, particularly in their footwear range. If your foot measurement falls between two sizes, it is generally better to choose the larger size, especially for athletic shoes or trainers that you plan to wear with socks. A slightly roomy shoe is more comfortable than one that is too tight.
- Check product-specific reviews: Before purchasing, read customer reviews for the specific style you are considering. Reviewers often mention whether a particular shoe, top, or pair of trousers runs true to size, small, or large. This real-world feedback is invaluable when shopping online, particularly if you are unfamiliar with the brand's specific fit.
- Consider layering and sock thickness: If you intend to wear thick socks or thermal underlayers with your Patrick footwear or clothing, factor this into your sizing decision. A shoe that fits perfectly with lightweight socks may feel tight with winter socks. Equally, a top that fits well alone might be snug when worn over thermal layers.
- Both feet may differ: It is common for one foot to be slightly larger than the other. When purchasing footwear, always ensure your shoes fit your larger foot comfortably. Wearing socks of appropriate thickness will help you assess the fit accurately.
- European versus UK conversions: Patrick's sizing uses a hybrid approach, offering UK sizes that align with European standards. If you usually purchase European sizes, refer to the EU column in the shoe size chart. UK shoe sizes differ from US sizes, and the conversion varies depending on whether you are shopping for men's or women's footwear. Always double-check the correct column when converting.
- Contact Patrick's customer care: If you are still uncertain about the correct size after consulting the charts and product descriptions, Patrick's Customer Care Team is available to provide detailed, personalised guidance. You can reach them at +44 (0)1727 883694 or fill in an online form on the Patrick UK website. They will help you find the perfect fit for any product in the range.
- Brand-specific fit considerations: Patrick is known for athletic, contemporary tailoring. If you prefer a looser, more relaxed fit, you may wish to size up from your standard chest measurement. However, if you enjoy a fitted silhouette that emphasises your physique, Patrick's sizing is ideal for sizing true to your measurements.
