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 For: Whitetail – Cold to Frigid Conditions
Proximity combines industry-leading technologies to ensure you remain undetected during close-encounter situations and stay warm in cold-weather conditions. Using proprietary technology, the ultra-quiet Proximity Series pairs a low-sheen brushed fabric with a windproof SynthaCell® foam coating for increased protection and warmth retention.
Developed from the ground up, Proximity is engineered with purpose-driven features for stand hunting in cold to frigid conditions. Features include a patent-pending removable hood, safety harness port, hand-warmer holders, and pit vents. Leveraging body-mapped 3DeFX+® insulation, Proximity strategically positions heavier insulation in more vulnerable areas, with lighter insulation where extra breathability is needed.
The outer-layer fit comfortably layers over a safety harness, insulated mid-layer, and base layer—while its articulated design, high-stretch fabric, and streamlined forearms allow you to shoot without interference or restricting mobility.
