Every Vertura garment is designed for an active woman's body from the start, not as an after thought - even our accessories (which so often are labelled 'one size fits all').

While there is no such thing as an 'average woman', it's also true the unisex sizing is nearly always based on male average measurements.

We design for active women's shapes, so leave room for strong shoulders and muscular thighs, cutting a shape that flatters and functions (because both matter). That means shaping the torso to allow for the bust and waist, leaving more room through the hips and thighs and using a shorter leg length.

If you are between sizes

On the technical range, go for the larger of the two. On printed cotton, size down if you prefer it less relaxed.

How to measure

These are body measurements, not garment measurements. The garment will differ depending on style and fit.

• Bust — around your bust at the widest point
• Waist — around your waistline at the narrowest point
• Hips — around your hips at the widest point
• Leg length — from the top inside of your leg to the floor, in bare feet

Technical range

Baselayers, fleece, legwear and insulation.

Printed cotton

Our printed tees, tops and hoodies are made on our print partner's blocks, which are cut to a slightly different standard from our own technical range. If you own something from each, this is why your size may not be identical.
