1. How to Measure (Senior- & Caregiver-Friendly Method)

Measure With Confidence — Or With a Caregiver

For the most accurate sizing, use a soft measuring tape. If mobility is limited, we recommend measuring with a caregiver or family member.

Basic Measurements Needed

• Chest/Bust: Measure around the fullest part

• Waist: Measure around natural waistline

• Hips: Measure around the widest area

• Inseam / Seated Inseam:

  • Standing users: Measure from inner thigh to ankle

  • Wheelchair or seated users: Measure from hip crease to the footrest

• Arm Length: Shoulder to wrist

• Shoulder Width: From shoulder bone to shoulder bone

Caregiver Tip

Use the “two-finger rule” — clothing should allow two fingers between the body and fabric for comfortable mobility.
