Can Chinese M, L or XL convert directly to US sizes?
No. These are seller labels, and a letter may cover different measurements across brands, garment categories and fits. Keep the seller’s label and compare the actual measurements. This tool reports the measurable difference; it does not automatically add two sizes or promise a fit.
How to compare shirts, dresses, jeans and trousers
- Choose the relevant body point: chest/bust for tops, waist and hip for bottoms. Measure without pulling the tape tight.
- Identify whether the product table describes a body or a finished garment. A flat width is doubled only after the seller confirms that convention.
- Enter both values in the same unit. Compare the resulting room with the product’s fitting advice, fabric stretch and your own well-fitting garment.
- Repeat for the other important measurements, including shoulder, hip, inseam and garment length. Do not double lengths or shoulder widths.
Chinese labels and inches
| Seller value | Meaning | Converted reference |
|---|---|---|
| 胸围 52 cm | If confirmed flat chest width | 104 cm garment circumference |
| 腰围 80 cm | If full waist circumference | 31.4961 inches |
| 170/92A top | Reference height / body chest | 170 cm height; 92 cm chest |
| 170/76A trousers | Reference height / body waist | 170 cm height; 76 cm waist |
How do I find the US label?
Use the same brand’s published US chart and the actual product’s body ranges. A numeric waist in inches is a measurement, not a guaranteed US retail pants size. Without a named chart, an automatic CN-to-US result would be unsupported. This comparison works with any seller chart you have and keeps that uncertainty visible.
