How to Measure Yourself
To find your ideal Smith and Jones size, follow these simple steps. For the most accurate measurements, wear minimal clothing and use a soft measuring tape. All measurements should be taken whilst standing with your arms relaxed at your sides.
- Chest/Bust: Wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest or bust, keeping the tape parallel to the ground and snug (but not tight). Do not pull the tape taut. Record the measurement in inches or centimetres.
- Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your waist, typically just above your hip bones. Keep the tape relaxed and level. This is especially important for trousers and jeans sizing.
- Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and bottom, approximately 7-8 inches below your natural waistline. Keep the tape parallel and comfortable.
- Shoulder Width (optional): For jackets and coats, measure from the outer edge of one shoulder bone to the outer edge of the other shoulder bone, across the back.
- Sleeve Length (for shirts): Measure from the centre back of your neck, across your shoulder, and down your arm to your wrist bone. Alternatively, measure from your shoulder seam to your wrist.
- Foot Length (for shoes): Stand on a sheet of paper and mark the length from your heel to your longest toe. Measure this distance in centimetres. Measure both feet, as they may differ slightly.
- Timing: Measure yourself in the afternoon when your feet and body are at their largest. This ensures you purchase the correct size, as feet naturally swell throughout the day.

Product-Specific Sizing Guidance
Jeans & Denim
Smith and Jones denim is designed for durability and contemporary style. Our jeans are graded in standard UK and US waist sizes, with inseams available from 28” to 34”. Denim shrinks slightly with washing, so we recommend measuring a favourite pair of jeans laid flat and comparing to the product measurements. Our raw and selvedge denim options may require one wash before wearing for optimal fit. Always check individual product descriptions for specific care instructions and pre-shrinking information.
Coats & Jackets
Outerwear from Smith and Jones is designed with layering in mind. Jackets and coats should fit comfortably over a shirt or jumper without pulling across the chest or shoulders. We recommend choosing a size based on your chest measurement, allowing for 2–3 inches of ease for comfortable movement. For tailored blazers, refer to your standard jacket size. For casual bombers and windbreakers, sizing may be more relaxed; check product descriptions for specific fit guidance.
Shirts & Dress Shirts
Smith and Jones dress shirts are available in both standard XS–XXXL sizing and neck-size options (measured in inches, such as 15”, 16”, 16.5”). For the best fit, measure your neck and chest. The neck measurement should be snug but comfortable enough to fit one finger beneath. Sleeve length is critical for formal shirts; measure from the centre back of your neck to your wrist bone. Many Smith and Jones shirts offer tailored sleeve lengths for precision fit.
Jumpers, Knitwear & Cardigans
Knitwear from Smith and Jones is designed for comfortable layering and everyday wear. Choose your size based on chest measurement, keeping in mind that jumpers offer more relaxed fit than tailored pieces. If you prefer a closer fit, you may size down; for a more oversized aesthetic, size up. Knitwear may relax slightly with wear and washing, particularly in natural fibres such as cotton and wool. Always refer to care instructions and consider the specific fibre content when choosing your size.
Shoes & Trainers
Smith and Jones footwear is sized in standard UK sizing. For trainers and casual shoes, most customers find their standard UK size provides the best fit. For formal shoes and boots, we recommend measuring your foot length in centimetres and comparing to our shoe size chart. Some styles may run slightly narrow or wide; always check individual product reviews and fit guidance before ordering. Consider that feet swell during the day and after exercise, so measure in the afternoon for accuracy.
Belts & Accessories
Belts from Smith and Jones are sized by waist measurement. Measure around your natural waist where you normally wear a belt, then refer to the size chart. Most belts should sit comfortably at the third or fourth hole when fastened. Width varies by style; refer to product descriptions for specific information. Gloves are available in XS–XXL and unisex sizing, with measurements based on hand circumference.
Sizing Tips
- Compare Your Own Garments: The most reliable way to ensure a good fit is to compare Smith and Jones sizing to your favourite existing clothes. Lay a garment you love flat on a table and measure the chest (or bust), waist, and length. Compare these measurements directly to the product description rather than relying solely on size labels.
- Measure in the Afternoon: Bodies change throughout the day, with feet and torsos typically at their largest by evening. Always take your measurements in the afternoon or early evening to ensure you purchase the correct size. This is especially important for footwear and waist-measurement items like trousers and belts.
- Account for Your Preferred Fit: Smith and Jones offers both tailored and relaxed silhouettes. If you prefer a closer, more structured fit, choose your true size. If you like roomier, more casual garments, consider sizing up. Check product descriptions and customer reviews for guidance on the intended fit of each style.
- Check Product-Specific Descriptions: Some Smith and Jones pieces may run slightly large or small due to fabric, cut, or construction method. Always read the product description carefully and look for customer reviews mentioning fit. Many products include specific guidance such as “runs small” or “cut for a relaxed fit.”
- Consider Layering for Outerwear: When ordering coats, jackets, and jumpers, remember that these pieces should fit comfortably over a shirt or additional layer. If you intend to wear them with heavy knitwear, you may want to size up. Always allow 2–3 inches of ease across the chest for comfortable movement.
- Know Your Shoe Width: Most feet are considered standard width (E fitting for men's, D/E for women's), but some people have naturally narrow or wide feet. If you have known narrow or wide feet, check product descriptions to see if Smith and Jones offers the style you want in your specific width. Reviewers often mention width accommodation in their comments.
- Use International Size Conversions with Caution: Whilst the size conversion charts provided are accurate, brand-specific variations do exist. If ordering from international retailers or using unfamiliar sizing systems, always verify against the specific size guide rather than making assumptions based on general conversion formulas.
- Take Advantage of Free Returns: If you are uncertain about sizing, Smith and Jones typically offers free returns on UK orders. Order your preferred sizes, try them on at home, and return items that do not fit as expected. This removes the guesswork from online shopping.
- Remember That Sizes Vary by Style: Even within the Smith and Jones range, different styles may fit slightly differently due to the cut, fabric, or intended aesthetic. A formal shirt may fit differently from a casual linen shirt. Always refer to measurements and specific product guidance rather than assuming all small items fit identically.
Frequently Asked Questions About Smith and Jones Sizing
What if I am between two sizes?
If your measurements fall between two sizes, consider the type of garment and your personal preference. For tailored pieces such as blazers, choose the smaller size for a sharper fit. For relaxed items such as jumpers and casual shirts, the larger size offers more comfort. Always refer to the specific product description, as different styles within Smith and Jones have different fits.
Do Smith and Jones sizes run large or small?
Smith and Jones sizing is designed to run true to size. However, this can vary by individual style and fabric. We recommend checking the specific product measurements and customer reviews before ordering. Most customers find that Smith and Jones clothing fits as expected when matched against the provided size charts.
Are Smith and Jones shoes true to size?
Smith and Jones footwear is sized in standard UK sizes and is generally true to size. However, some styles—particularly dress shoes and formal footwear—may require a break-in period. We recommend measuring your foot length and comparing it to our shoe size chart. If you have wide feet, ensure you are purchasing a style available in wide fittings, or consider sizing up by half a size.
How should I measure my foot for shoes?
Stand on a flat piece of paper and mark the length from your heel to your longest toe.
