Significance and Use

4.1 The use of the body measurement information in Tables 1 and 2 will assist manufacturers in developing patterns and garments that are consistent with the current anthropometric characteristics of the population of interest. This standard, should in turn, reduce or minimize consumer confusion and dissatisfaction related to apparel sizing (also refer to ISO 3635).

4.2 Three-dimensional avatars depicting each of the adult men’s sizes were created by Alvanon, Inc. and included in this standard to assist manufacturers in visualizing the posture, shape, and proportions generated by the measurement charts in Tables 1 and 2 (see Figs. 1-3).

Scope

1.1 These tables list body measurements of adult male figure type, chest sizes 34 through 52 in Short, Regular, and Tall. Although these are body measurements, they can be used as a baseline in designing apparel for adult men in this size range when considering such factors as fabric type, ease for body movement, styling, and fit.

1.2 Units—The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.

1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
