Is XL in China the same as XL in UK?

Question

I want to order some clothes from a chines on line site. Last time I ordered some of their XL was tight which is strange because I'm a L so I was wondering what is the difference between Chinese XL and UK XL. Or if you can change my UK L into chines size. TY

Answer 1

it depends on the clothes' home

Answer 2

I've ordered some clothes from there and they always fit a bit snug.  I usually wear a small/medium (US sizes) but when I get things from China I order medium/large depending on the measurements and what it is, dress, skirt, shirt, etc.  I would get the measurements and/or probably go at least one size up.

Chinese are smaller people and their sizes reflect that.

Answer 3

No, I don't think so, a size 164 there is maybe....a ten or twelve here. But that's for children. It's best if you ask for dimensions and things Chinese and American clothes aren't the same, I think a Chinese XL would be smaller.

Answer 4

Try XXXL. The chinese sizes are much smaller then UK sizes. They base their sizes on the average Chinese which is pretty small, so you need to get at least 3X larger then your ususal in their size.
