Some observations and lessons learned about sizing

2024-08-12

In this article, we will only take the sizing of underwear as an example.

S, M, L, XL ...... are widely used in countries all over the world as the international common way of labeling sizes, but due to the difference in human races, S, M, L are often not common in different countries. For example, for Americans who wear size M, Asia size M is too small. We have gained some general experience from past trade dealings, Asian sizes and American sizes can be used in the following way to correspond.

US SIZE XXS XS S M L XL XXL
CN/ASIA SIZE S M L XL XXL 3XL 4XL

For some products that are only available in stock, it is appropriate to reduce the Asian size by two sizes as the US/European size. Of course, the actual size and elasticity of the product should also be taken into consideration. Suppliers like LoDanve factory, which produces standardized products in uniform sizes, can be assured by simply applying the above rules.

Nowadays, with most people actively pursuing a healthy body and lifestyle, there are still many people who are in an obese or over-obese condition, including myself. Therefore, besides producing products in standard sizes, you can also easily customize plus size underwear at LoDanve, and we can even provide you with private customization. Plus-size products are not a simple modification of an off-the-shelf design to make it bigger, we will likewise adhere to the aesthetic pursuit in the design of our plus-size products, which amounts to a whole new design process.

Controlling the accuracy of sizing during the actual production process can also be challenging. Due to factors such as the dyeing process, darker (e.g. black) materials sometimes have less elasticity than lighter colors of the same material. The resulting undersizing is often not noticed until after production is over, which can be costly. We avoid this problem at the material selection stage.

Choose LoDanve and your products will be more accurate.
