Our underwear size chart works the same way as any other size chart, which means the first step is knowing your measurements; for that, all you need is your trusty measuring tape. Remember that not all underwear charts are the same, so knowing your measurements is necessary when shopping for underwear.

Using a flexible measuring tape, measure just under your belly button where your waistband usually hits. Keep the measuring tape flat against your body and parallel to the floor.

This is the widest part of your butt region. Close your eyes and sensually rub your hands down your sides while imagining you’re a sexy lady. Stop and open your eyes when you get to the sumptuous curves of her hourglass figure. Those are your hips!

The inseam runs from the crotch of your underwear to the bottom of the leg. To measure, place tape along the inside leg, from the crotch seam to the opening.

If you want a snug fit: size down, and relaxed fit: size up.
