SIZE GUIDE

The Papu online store has measurement drawings for all products, where you can check the measurements of each product. The easiest way to compare sizes is to compare the measurements in the drawing to a similar garment from your own wardrobe.

Try to choose a garment from your wardrobe that is as similar as possible to the one whose size you're checking.

In every size chart you'll find the measurements for each size for the different parts of the product, marked with letters in the images. Please note: the size charts are indicative, and the actual products may differ by 1–2 cm from the given measurements.

Our products containing elastane are stretchy. If you're unsure between two sizes, we recommend choosing the smaller size for a snugger, more fitted result.

Products made from 100% cotton, Ecovero or lyocell, on the other hand, do not stretch. This is important to consider when choosing your size, as these materials don't stretch with wear. For non-stretch garments, pay particular attention to the measurement drawings and choose a size that gives you enough room to move.

So always remember to check the product's material and think about how you want the garment to fit – snug or relaxed – so you can find the best possible size and fit for you!

When choosing the right size, it's important to allow for possible shrinkage, as certain materials may shrink in the first wash. Products made from cotton, cotton-elastane blends, linen, lyocell and Ecovero may shrink by about 5% during the first wash.

Allowing for shrinkage is especially worthwhile for close-fitting and non-stretch garments, so that they don't become too small or uncomfortable after washing.

Remember to follow the washing instructions and, whenever possible, wash the garment gently to keep shrinkage to a minimum.

Every country has its own sizing system, and sizes can vary significantly between brands and regions. This can cause confusion and uncertainty when choosing the right size.

Here you'll find a clear chart to help you compare clothing sizes. The chart includes the most common sizing systems. Whether you're buying a new dress, shirt or trousers, this guide will help you make sure the size you choose is just right for you!
