Clothing size from a seller's chart

Lay it flat and measure armpit to armpit.

One size per line: size, chest, then length if listed. Copy the numbers from the listing's size chart.

How to get sizing right on LitBuy

  • Trust measurements, not labels. An XL from a Chinese seller can fit like a Western M or L. Compare the seller's chart with a garment you already own.
  • Check whether the chart shows width or circumference. Chest width is measured flat; circumference is twice that.
  • For shoes, measure your foot. Stand on paper, mark heel and longest toe, and measure in centimetres. Many listings use foot length in millimetres as the size.
  • Confirm at the warehouse. LitBuy photographs items when they arrive. If you need a measurement, ask LitBuy support before you ship. Our QC checklist covers what to check.
