Which L.L.Bean size am I?
Measure your waist and find the closest number in the chart. For example, a waist of 74.9 cm matches L.L.Bean size 10 most closely. If you sit between two sizes, the larger one is usually the safer choice for a comfortable fit.
How to measure for a L.L.Bean size
Use a soft tape measure, keep it level and snug without pulling it tight, and measure over thin clothing or underwear.
- Chest: around the fullest part, under the arms, with the tape level all the way round.
- Waist: around the narrowest part of your torso for tops, or where your trousers sit for bottoms.
- Hip: around the fullest part of your hips and seat, feet together.
- Inseam: from the crotch down the inside of the leg to where you want the hem, or copy it from trousers that fit.
L.L.Bean sizing questions
Is the L.L.Bean size chart in cm or inches?
L.L.Bean publishes its chart in inches. This page shows every measurement in both centimetres and inches, so use whichever your tape measure reads.
Does L.L.Bean run small or large?
It depends on the garment and on you, which is why the chart matters more than the label. L.L.Bean size 10 is made for a waist of about 74.9 cm. Compare that with your own waist measurement rather than the size you usually wear elsewhere.
What if I am between two L.L.Bean sizes?
Check which measurement matters most for the garment: chest for tops, waist and inseam for trousers. If you are still between sizes, go up for a relaxed fit or down for a closer one.
Where does this L.L.Bean size chart come from?
It comes from L.L.Bean's own published size guide at llbean.com. Brands update their charts from time to time, so check the brand's page before an important order.

clothly measures you from one photo, then compares your numbers with this chart and any other brand you shop, and shows the garment on a model built to your body.
