Rep Sizing Guide
Chinese sizing runs different. Here's how to nail it every time.
4 min read · Updated 2026
General Rules
- Most Chinese sellers use Asian sizing: size up 1-2 from your Western size
- Always check the size chart on the listing (your agent can translate)
- Ask your agent to measure the item in the warehouse, most do this for free
- Weight ≠ quality, but heavier blanks (300g+) usually mean thicker material
Category Sizing
T-Shirts
| Asian | Western | Chest (cm) |
|---|---|---|
| S | XS | 96-100 |
| M | S | 100-104 |
| L | M | 104-108 |
| XL | L | 108-112 |
| XXL | XL | 112-116 |
Oversized fit? Go 2 sizes up. Regular fit? Go 1 size up. Measure your best-fitting tee for reference.
Hoodies & Sweaters
Same 1-2 size up rule. Check shoulder measurement, dropped shoulders (oversized) may not need sizing up as much.
Check length to avoid crop-top surprises. Measure your torso length.
Pants & Jeans
| US Size | CN Waist | EU Size |
|---|---|---|
| 28 | 71 cm | 44 |
| 30 | 76 cm | 46 |
| 32 | 81 cm | 48 |
| 34 | 86 cm | 50 |
| 36 | 91 cm | 52 |
Measure waist in cm. Inseam is often shorter than Western pants, check length. Denim shrinks slightly after first wash.
Shoes
- Most rep shoes are TTS for popular batches
- Jordan 1, Dunk, AF1: TTS or half size up
- Yeezy 350: Half size up (runs small)
- New Balance: TTS
- Measure your foot in CM and compare to the seller's size chart
- When in doubt, go half size up (easier to add an insole than return)
How to Measure

Armpit to armpit (flat)

Pro tip: Measure your best-fitting garment flat on a table. Compare those measurements to the seller's size chart. This is more accurate than body measurements.
Doesn't Fit?
- Return window: most agents allow free returns within their warehouse (3-7 days)
- Always check QC photos for measurements before shipping
- Ask your agent to measure specific dimensions if the size chart is unclear
- Exchange is usually free, you just pay the price difference if any
