Base-layer bottoms run slimmer next to skin; rain/insulated bottoms use the same waist size with added room. If between waist and hip, use hip for relaxed pants and waist for fitted styles.
How to Measure
- Chest / bust Arms relaxed at sides, measure around the fullest part under the armpits, keep tape level.[12](@ref)
- Waist Measure around the natural waist at the narrowest point, usually just above the hip bones.[3](@ref)
- Hip / seat Stand with feet hip-width apart, measure around the widest part of the hips/seat.[2](@ref)
- Arm / sleeve With arm slightly bent, measure from center back of neck, across the shoulder, to the wrist bone.[12](@ref)
- Inseam From the crotch seam down the inside leg to the ankle; for boots, measure to the floor.[3](@ref)
- Hand / glove Measure palm circumference around the knuckles without the thumb; check model-specific cuff notes separately.
Use a flexible tape, measure over lightweight clothing, and avoid pulling the tape tight. For layering, remeasure while wearing your usual base layer.
Fit Types
Suggested Layering by Condition
General rule: a base, mid, insulated and rain piece in the same body size will stack for most conditions. If you regularly wear two heavy midlayers under a soft shell, size the soft shell up one. Never size a rain shell down to force insulation underneath—it compresses loft and reduces warmth.[6](@ref)
Should I size up for layering?
If you only add a base layer, stay true to body size. For fleece plus insulation plus shell, size outer pieces up one. Soft shells with multiple midlayers also benefit from one size up.
My chest and waist suggest different sizes—which do I use?
For jackets and tops, use chest. For pants and belts, use waist. For one-piece suits, choose by the larger of the two and note alterations.
Do these numbers match the garment tag?
No. Tables show body measurements. Actual garment circumferences vary by fabric stretch, style and fit type; check the product page for model-specific notes.
What if I am between inseam lengths?
Choose regular if within 0.5 in; choose tall if you wear hiking boots or prefer full coverage, short if ankle break is preferred. Untaped hems can be altered.
Do base layers shrink?
Merino blends may relax slightly when wet and recover after drying; synthetics stay stable. Follow cold-wash, flat-dry care labels. If between sizes in merino, choose the closer size for next-to-skin use.
Best Use: All Conditions
Built to keep your feet warm and protected in cold, muddy, and icy conditions, the HD Mud Boot is constructed of heavy-duty and insulating neoprene for added warmth, vulcanized rubber overlay for added durability, and an EVA sole for all-day comfort. The interior is lined with a premium grid-fleece for added warmth, enhanced air circulation, and fast dry time. A combination of the boot’s flexible upper and ¾ shank strike the balance of comfort and support.
Designed for heavy use in muddy conditions, the patent-pending boot tread design, inspired by self-cleaning mountain bike tires, features optimally shaped and spaced lugs that disengage mud, so you don’t get weighed down. Pair that with the optimized fit of the ankle to minimize heel lift, and you have a solid system to traverse through sticky clay and deep mud.
Features include durable woven pull loops, which make the boot easy to put on but also allow you to fold the boot upper down for a more rapid air-out. On the heel is an integrated kick-off tab for easy removal. The boots fit true to size with midweight socks, upsizing is recommended if you measure between sizes.
With the combination of 7mm insulating neoprene, grid-fleece interior, and vulcanized overlay, they are comparable to 1000+ gram insulated boots. Product testers reported all-day comfort in a broad range of temperatures from 50 to -20 F while active, and 70 to 15°F while in the stand.
