Measurements:
Chest
Outline your chest with a tape measure and breathe normally. Notice the variations as you breathe and record the highest number.
Waist
Place yourself in front of a mirror with your waist clearly visible. Slightly tilting the torso to the side, visualise the formation of a crease, which indicates the position of the natural waist. Wrap the waist.
Hips
Outline with the tape measure the "wider" region below the waist, running parallel to the highest part of the glutes.
This item has a active fit.
Each Shackleton piece is cut for the conditions it’s made for. See below our guide to our three fits: Active, Regular and Relaxed.
Active Fit
Cut close to the body for freedom of movement without excess fabric. It’s built for high-output days and efficient breathability.
Regular Fit
Our classic Shackleton cut, true to size with room to move and to layer. It’s a considered shape that works as well in the field as it does during travel.
Relaxed Fit
Generous through the body, with space for warmth and layers underneath. It’s made for cold days and layered comfort.
