Measurement Instructions & Sizing Accuracy
Accurate measurements are essential for proper tek gear sizing across our athletic apparel line. We recommend measuring yourself while wearing lightweight undergarments for the most precise results.
Taking Your Measurements
For chest measurements, wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape parallel to the floor. Waist measurements should be taken at your natural waistline, typically one inch above your hip bones. Our athletic apparel is designed with these standard measurement points to ensure consistent sizing across all product categories.
Hip measurements require the tape positioned around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks. For inseam measurements, measure from your crotch to where you prefer your garment to end, whether that’s mid-thigh for shorts or ankle length for full pants.
Size Chart Categories & Fit Types
Our sizing system divides into distinct categories to accommodate different athletic activities and personal preferences. Each category within our tek gear sizing framework addresses specific performance needs and body movement requirements.
Tops Sizing Categories
Performance tops include fitted, regular, and relaxed options with chest measurements ranging from 32 inches in XS to 54 inches in 3XL. Compression tops run approximately one size smaller than regular fit tops to provide muscle support during high-intensity activities.
Bottoms Sizing Specifications
Athletic bottoms feature waist measurements from 26 inches to 46 inches across our size range. Compression shorts and leggings incorporate four-way stretch materials that accommodate a broader measurement range while maintaining supportive fit. According to federal fitness guidelines, proper-fitting athletic wear supports safe and effective exercise performance.
International Size Conversions & Regional Fit
Our tek gear sizing guide includes comprehensive international conversions to serve our global customer base. Size variations between regions reflect different body proportions and cultural fit preferences common in various markets.
US to European Sizing
European sizes typically run one to two sizes smaller than US equivalents. A US Medium (chest 38-40 inches) converts to European size Large (chest 96-102 cm). We provide centimeter measurements alongside inch measurements for accurate international ordering.
UK and Canadian Conversions
UK sizing closely mirrors US sizing with minor variations in specific measurements. Canadian sizing follows US standards but includes metric measurements as primary references. Our size charts display all regional equivalents to eliminate confusion during the selection process.
Fit Recommendations & Size-Between Guidance
When your measurements fall between standard sizes in our tek gear sizing system, we provide specific recommendations based on garment type and intended use. Different athletic activities require varying degrees of fit precision for optimal performance.
Compression Wear Sizing
Compression garments should fit snugly without restricting circulation or causing discomfort. If measurements fall between sizes, choose the smaller size for maximum compression benefits. Loose compression wear loses its effectiveness for muscle support and recovery.
Layering Considerations
Base layers require closer fits while outer layers benefit from additional room for movement and airflow. When selecting sizes for layering systems, size up on outer garments to accommodate underlayers without creating bulk or restriction. Research from NIST standards confirms that proper layering enhances thermal regulation during athletic activities.
Tek Gear Sizing Questions & Fit Guidance
Tek gear sizing runs true to standard US athletic wear measurements. Our Medium tops fit chest measurements of 38-40 inches, consistent with major athletic brands.
We recommend checking our detailed size charts rather than assuming size equivalency across brands, as cut and fit can vary significantly between manufacturers.
For compression wear and fitted tops, choose the smaller size for proper performance benefits. For relaxed fit items and outerwear, size up for comfort and layering capability.
Our size charts include specific between-size guidance for each product category to help you make the best choice.
Compression garments are designed to fit snugly and typically run one size smaller than regular athletic wear. Check your measurements against our compression-specific size charts.
Proper compression fit should feel secure without cutting off circulation or causing discomfort during movement.
Our size charts reflect measurements taken from production samples and are accurate within 0.5 inches for consistency. All measurements undergo quality control testing.
Minor variations may occur due to fabric stretch and manufacturing tolerances, but sizing remains consistent across our product lines.
