Men's Tartan Trousers Sizing Guide

Your guide to sizing for stock and custom made tartan trousers

Guides banners mens trousers2 935x340


Our tartan trousers are carefully tailored to ensure the very best fit and finish. You can specify if you want classic cut or slim fit trousers, waist adjusters for those evenings when you eat too much, turn ups and any other special details. We are always happy to receive extra measurements such as thigh circumference for those with rugby players legs or the width of the bottom hem. Trousers can be left unfinished if you prefer to have them taken up locally. We can cater to most requests please just ask!

To ensure that you get the perfect fit, be sure to follow our measuring tips and advice:

Please don't be tempted to read the size from a label inside an existing pair of trousers as measurements vary from shop to shop. For the most accurate measurements, use a tailors tape measure and have a friend or family member measure for you. Ensure you have nothing in any of your pockets and that you stand tall and relaxed while getting measurements taken. All measurements should be provided in centimetres or inches.

If you require any further assistance with sizing, our tartan team will be more than happy to help - get in touch or book a measuring appointment with one of our tailoring consultants.
