Made to measure • Sewn in Slovakia

Made to measure.To your measurements.

We don’t sew according to an S / M / L chart from the internet. We sew according to you. A few minutes of measuring today will save you disappointment when you unpack the parcel — and give you a piece that fits exactly as it should.

Why we don’t sew to a size chart

There’s no universal “L”. Every brand has a different cut, different tolerances and a different goal. What fits you from a chain store may not fit with us — and vice versa. That’s why we don’t guess sizes. We sew to your exact measurements, in our own workshop in Slovakia.

No guesswork

You know exactly what you’ll get — not “I hope it’ll fit”.

Maximum comfort

Nothing to adjust, pull or loosen during training.

A precise cut

Same measurements, different goal — whether slim-fit or oversized, we know what matters.

You save resources

The time and money you’d spend returning a badly fitting piece.

What you’ll need

Nothing complicated. But accuracy is key — invest an extra 5 minutes in measuring, it’s worth it.

Tailor’s tape measure

A soft, flexible tape. Never use a metal retractable tape — it’s inaccurate for body circumferences.

Mirror

Ideally a large one in which you can see your whole body. It helps you check that the tape is level.

Thin clothing

Measure yourself in underwear or thin, close-fitting functional clothing. A sweatshirt adds extra centimetres.

  • Assistant (optional): if you have someone to help you, the measurement will be even more accurate — especially for the back and inside leg length.
  • When to measure: ideally in the morning, when your body is in a neutral state, not right after training.

4 key measurements

Stand in front of a mirror, adopt a natural stance (don’t tense your muscles) and let’s measure.

Illustrative diagram — the numbers correspond to the measurements below.

Meranie obvodu hrudnika 01 · CHEST

Wrap the tape around the widest part of your chest — over the nipples, under the armpits and across the shoulder blades on your back.

You should be able to slip one finger under the tape — that’s your allowance for movement and breathing.

Meranie obvodu pasu 02 · WAIST

Find your natural waistline — the narrowest part of your torso, usually 2–3 cm above your navel.

Don’t suck in your stomach. Keep the tape horizontal all the way round.

Meranie obvodu bokov 03 · HIPS

Feet together, measure around the widest part of your hips and bottom.

This point is often lower than most people think.

Meranie vnutornej dlzky nohy 04 · LEG LENGTH

From crotch to ankle. Ideally on trousers that fit you well, laid out on a flat surface.

If you’re measuring directly on your body, ask someone for help.

Right between two sizes?

Decide based on the cut and purpose. For slim-fit and compression clothing (e.g. sports leggings), go for the larger size — a piece that’s too tight will restrict your movement. For an oversized cut (sweatshirts, T-shirts), you can choose the smaller size if the shoulder seams fit and the length is still right.

Not sure? Send us your measurements — we’ll advise which option makes the most sense for that piece.

FAQ

Do I have to come in person to be measured?

No. You take the measurements yourself at home following the guide above. All you need is a tailor’s tape, a mirror and a few minutes.

What if I measure myself inaccurately?

Since this is made-to-measure production, the accuracy of your measurements directly affects the final fit. Follow the guide step by step and, if in doubt, measure twice. If a problem still occurs, write to us — we deal with every case individually.

Do all products have a size chart?

For most products you’ll find it directly in the description. If it’s missing for a particular piece, send us your measurements and we’ll advise which option will fit you best.

What if my measurements change over time?

Your body changes with training and time. We recommend updating your measurements before each new order — don’t rely on what you measured a year ago.

No compromises
