Measurement chart for armour
Please take the measurements including the padding and clothing you will wear under your
armour (tunic, chain mail, shoes, trousers et cetera). Not all measurements are relevant for
all types of armour. It is recommended to ask someone else to take your measurements for
you. Try to stand or sit straight but relaxed, unless asked to do otherwise. The measurement
tape should not be drawn too tight.
If something in this measurement chart is unclear, please send us an e-mail on:
