Compare the same measurement

Use chest for a shirt or dress; waist for trousers or jeans. Read the seller’s measurement instructions first.

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

  1. Choose the relevant body point: chest/bust for tops, waist and hip for bottoms. Measure without pulling the tape tight.
  2. Identify whether the product table describes a body or a finished garment. A flat width is doubled only after the seller confirms that convention.
  3. 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.
  4. Repeat for the other important measurements, including shoulder, hip, inseam and garment length. Do not double lengths or shoulder widths.

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.
