02 / The measuring method

A favourite shirt is a useful starting point.

Button it, lay it flat and smooth the fabric without stretching. Use a flexible tape measure and keep the same units throughout.

A reference illustration, not a scale drawing. Use the selected chart’s own measuring points.

Use the selected chart’s measurement basis and units. For sleeve, collar or length guidance, contact our team with the style name.

01
Chest
Measure straight across just below the armpits, from one side seam to the other. This is a flat width. Double it only when comparing it with the men’s shirt chart’s full chest circumference.
02
Shoulders
Measure across the back from the edge of one shoulder seam to the other.
03
Sleeve guidance
For sleeve fit, contact our London team with the style name. We can help you establish the relevant measuring points for that piece.
04
Length guidance
Contact our team for the appropriate length reference for the style you are choosing. Compare measurements only when they use the same starting point and endpoint.

03 / The fit notes

Tailored regular. Chosen with care.

Our signature men’s woven shirts have a tailored regular fit. Check the individual product description as fabric, construction and style can affect how a garment wears.

If you are between sizes, have broad shoulders or want a more relaxed feel, our usual guidance is to consider the next size up. Check the confirmed chest and shoulder references alongside the product’s fit notes. If a measured shirt already matches the fit you want, there is no automatic extra size to add.

A Claudio size you already wear comfortably is a useful starting point. Still check the current style’s fit notes and chart.

Different pieces need their own reference.

Women’s shirts and jackets

Use the separate women’s chart for the garment you are choosing; do not transfer a men’s letter size automatically.

Jackets and blazers

Compare a similar jacket and follow the category chart’s measuring positions and units.

Chinos and footwear

Use the dedicated footwear chart, or contact our team for style-specific chino waist and inside-leg guidance. Do not derive either size from a shirt measurement.

Polos and special cuts

Read the individual product fit notes. Some styles have a closer cut or different fabric behaviour.

04 / Questions, answered

A better fit starts with the right question.

A few useful distinctions before you choose.

Do Claudio Lugli shirts run small?

Our signature men’s woven shirts use a tailored regular cut. Compare a similar shirt that fits you well with the relevant garment chart, then check the product’s fit notes. If you are between sizes, broad-shouldered or want a more relaxed feel, consider the next size up.

Should I measure my body or a shirt?

Use the chart that matches what you measured. Comparing a well-fitting shirt with a garment chart is a useful starting point. If you measure your body, use the body chart. A body circumference and a flat garment width are different measurements.

Do I double the chest measurement?

Only when converting a measured flat garment width into a full circumference for a chart that asks for it. If the chart shows flat width, compare it directly with your flat shirt measurement. Do not double a body measurement or a chart value that is already a circumference.

What should I do if I am between sizes?

Our usual guidance is to consider the next size up if you are between sizes, broad-shouldered or prefer more room. Check all the relevant measurements and the product notes. Contact our team if the measurements point to different sizes rather than relying on one number.

Can I use the same size for every Claudio Lugli garment?

Do not assume every category or style uses the same fit. Use the category guidance for women’s shirts, jackets, chinos or footwear, and the individual product notes for polos and special cuts. Your usual Claudio size is a starting point, not a universal conversion.

What if the size I order is not right?

Eligible online purchases can be returned within 28 days of receipt, subject to our Returns Policy. Exchanges depend on stock and the policy’s conditions. Read the current returns process before sending an item back, or contact our team for help with a different size.
