HOW TO MEASURE
To get the ideal fit of a Ruttloff shirt or jacket, it is helpful to correctly measure a corresponding favorite piece from your own closet. In this way, unnecessary returns are avoided, which is also good for the environment. By saving time and resources, the new handmade garment can get to you faster, too. In order to make measuring as quick and easy as possible, a small measuring guide is provided for you below.
