Clothing
sizes in the United States
are different than those found in most other countries. If you are a buyer
from another country, it might be useful to know the differences in US sizes.
This page is designed to be a useful tool in converting local sizes to
approximate US sizes. We try to keep the data as accurate as possible, but we
cannot guarantee that it is absolutely correct. Sizes of clothing vary between
manufacturers and even between different designs by the same manufacturer. You
should use these charts for approximation only.
