The Confident Way to Find Your Parka Size
This guide walks you through simple steps to measure and compare, so you can order the size that fits you best from day one.
How The Parka Fitting Process Works
Why the Right Fit Matters So Much
The right fit is more than numbers on a chart. It gives you freedom to move, space to layer, and comfort that lasts through every season. Clear measurements make sure your parka feels right from the very first wear.
Confident Fit, Guided by Bobby
Sizing is simple with Bobby’s guidance. You’ll know your size before you order, feel confident in your choice, and enjoy comfort that carries through every season. Every stitch is guided by years of cultural knowledge, so your parka is comfortable and carries meaning too.

How to Measure Yourself
You can double-check your size in minutes with a soft tape and a mirror or a friend. Remember: your body measurements will be smaller than the chart, since each parka includes built-in ease for layering, comfort, and movement.
1. Parka Length
Decide how far down you’d like your parka to fall. Measure from the top of your shoulder straight down to that point.
2. Shoulder Width
Run the tape straight across your back, measuring from the edge of one shoulder to the other. This ensures your parka sits right and moves with you.
3. Chest Width
With your arms relaxed, measure around the fullest part of your chest. Keep the tape snug but not tight, and parallel to the ground.
4. Sleeve Length
Start at the top of your shoulder and measure down to the point where you’d like the cuff to end (usually at or just past your wrist). Keep your arm relaxed at your side.
5. Hip Width
Measure around the fullest part of your hips, keeping the tape level and comfortable.
👉 Tip: If you’re between sizes, choose the larger. Parkas are designed with built-in ease so you can layer, move freely, and stay warm.
