Now shopping in German online stores with an intermediary is even easier! After all, our company will not only deliver your purchases from abroad, but will also help you determine the required size of clothing and footwear. Here you can study in detail the intricacies of size marking women's t-shirts, blouses, skirts, trousers, outerwear and even corsetry from a German manufacturer. Also, we present to your attention a table of correspondence between German and Russian sizes in this category.

The principle of working with an intermediary is very simple: you choose a product and place your order, and our company will professionally deliver it from Germany, Australia, Holland, Poland, Canada, England, USA, France, Poland, Italy, Japan, Korea or China.

In this case, you will certainly get ours.

The company is the official agent for the delivery of purchases from online stores and online platforms to countries around the world, including the CIS.

Catalogs of leading German manufacturers women's clothing are gaining more and more popularity among Russian consumers. Typically, such directories are distributed using regular mail. Their main target audience is women between the ages of about twenty and sixty. There is a minimum of men's and children's clothing in these catalogs. If the company has its own online store, then shopping for clothes from German catalogs is even more convenient. But here you may encounter the problem of inconsistency between Russian and German sizes. With optimal calculations for German sizes of blouses, sweaters, T-shirts, etc. you can check below.

If, when choosing tight-fitting T-shirts and blouses, there is often a problem with chest measurements, then when buying trousers and skirts it is almost impossible to do without a size table, which would indicate the volumes of the hips and waist. Unfortunately, just a comparison of Russian and German sizes will not give you a complete picture. Therefore, we provide you with another table, which gives information on the measurements of the waist, hips and leg length. This will help you in choosing the size of trousers, skirts and shorts.

The choice of outerwear: jackets, coats, blazers and also dresses, is not limited only to the waist and hips. There is not enough growth data for a full size table. The main thing is to find a match in the table below, having measured the main parameters in advance. Then the required German size will be indicated in the resulting cell.

The most basic parameter for all kinds of corsetry is the waist circumference. The narrowest part of the corset falls on it, focusing on the graceful lines female body... In order to choose the right clothes of a tight-fitting cut, or to determine the correct corset size for you, a special size chart was specially developed. In it, the sizes of clothes for women correspond to European standards.

With the help of a general table of correspondences between German and Russian sizes, it will be much easier for you to pre-determine the appropriate size for clothes. Do not forget that a lot depends on the individual characteristics of the figure that every woman has. Therefore, the sizes do not always match perfectly. We advise you to select clothes initially according to the detailed tables that you will find above, having previously measured the most critical parts of the body - hips, waist, chest. After that, you can without hesitation compare the obtained indicators with the dimensions that correspond to Russian standards.

German catalogs and online shops are a shopper's paradise. Reasonable prices, high quality clothes and fast delivery, compared to China or the United States, are conducive to shopping. It is also important what to pick up your the size quite simply, all things usually correspond to the seller's table.

V In Germany, the XS-XL international sizing system is widespread, but quality brands still use the German sizing system.

As easy as pie

Z Do you know your Russian size? Then it is very easy to define German. It is enough to subtract 8. So, if your Russian size is 44, then German will be 36. This rule is true for women's clothing - men's sizes absolutely exactly coincide with domestic ones for a standard figure (German 50 is the same as Russian 50- d). However, there are also exceptions. The size of bras and tops of swimsuits (and they are sold separately from swimming trunks in most online stores) is fully consistent with the Russian one.

Custom sizes

WITH In Germany, women's sizes are considered standard for a height of 165-172 cm. Sometimes they can be marked with the letter N. Sizes for petite women are marked with the letter K (EK), while their digital designation is half the standard. For example, women with a height of 155-164, for whom the standard German size would be 36, should choose 18K. Models for those over 173 cm are marked with the letter L (EL) and a number designation twice the standard size. For example, for a height of 182 cm and a German size 44, clothes in a size 88L are ideal.

V men's dimensional grid takes into account not only height, but also the proportions of the figure. Clothes of standard sizes are tailored to a figure in which the waist is narrower than the chest, and, like women, is marked with a letter N or just numbers. At the same time, it is designed for growth from 160 to 198 cm. Models for short men up to 186 cm with a slight difference in the girth of the hips and waist are designated by the letter U (from German Untersetzt - stocky). For tall (from 174 to 194 cm), narrow-shouldered and thin - S... Even for figures with a "beer" belly, a special cut is provided, expanding at the waist. Such things are marked with a letter B(from him. B auch - belly). So, a man 178 cm tall with short legs and a chest volume of 112 cm needs to stop at 28U.

Baby clothes

D For children under 3 years old, the size of the clothes is determined by one parameter - height. Graduation from 50 to 104 cm with a step of 6 cm. For older age, the size also depends on height, but when choosing shoulder products, the girth of the chest is taken into account, and when choosing trousers or skirts - the waist and hips.

German manufacturers usually do not deviate from the standard parameters, however, before ordering, it is still worth checking the dimensional grid.

Attention: the article is for informational purposes only and may contain inaccuracies. Please write about any errors in the comments.

People's legs differ not only in size, but also in fullness, lifting height, foot width, and so on. Therefore, shoe manufacturers use different types of shoes. It is better, of course, to know your last and the manufacturer whose products are ideal for your foot size.

Leather is considered the most ideal material for shoes, as it can adapt to any foot. And when buying shoes from the catalog, you can be sure of the quality of the products. But one point is important here - if you order shoes from manufacturers of other countries, its size also changes.

So, for example, the German shoe size has a slight difference from the Russian one, and for correct selection pairs, you need to look at the shoe size matching table for that country.

To determine the German shoe size into Russian (a table of size ratios will help with this), you need to find out the width and height of the shin, as well as the height of the heel

German sizes do not differ much from Russian ones. But it is worth knowing a few nuances that will help you quickly and accurately determine the correct foot size.

The difference in the German size is that not only the foot and leg lift are measured, but also the width and height of the lower leg, and the height of the heel.

Therefore, when selecting or translating a German shoe size into Russian, in addition to the table of foot sizes, the following parameters must be taken into account:

Schaftweite - The widest part of the bootleg.
Schafthohe - Shows the height of the shin from the heel to its widest part.
Absatz - designation of the height of the heel.

What you need to know to determine German shoe size

To quickly determine the correct German shoe size, you first need to know your foot measurements. To purchase any shoe, measure the length of the sole. If the shoes are tall (for example, boots), then you also need to know the height and width of the lower leg.

The leg width is indicated by the corresponding letter:

F - normal leg width;
G - means wide leg;
J - too wide shoes;
K is the widest shoe.

German shoe size may differ from other European sizes by the absence of the H designation between G and J. English size the table shows big sizes like H, J, K, and the G character stands for medium width. Translated into Russian, it can be attributed maximum size to numbers 10, 11, 12.

How to take measurements correctly to determine shoe size

You can find out the German shoe size, to determine it and translate it into Russian, if you measure the length of your foot, and then select the line corresponding to the resulting figure in the size table.

An adult can take measurements only once, remember them and apply them with every shoe purchase. And children need to measure their feet in front of each new purchase, since their leg is constantly growing, and accordingly the size changes.

You need to correctly measure the foot using the following method:

put a sheet of paper on the floor and put your bare foot on it;
circle the leg with a pencil;
measure in length from the heel to the highest point (for example, it could be the end of the big toe).

It should also be borne in mind that if the shoes are to be worn on the toe, then the leg should be in the sock when taking measurements.

To determine the correct size, you need to measure both feet. And if one foot turns out to be larger than the other, then it is worth choosing shoes for the larger foot.

To measure the lower leg, you need to find its widest part, outline and measure the width. Then you need to measure the length of the lower leg from the heel (from the floor) to the intended line.

For example, for a 37 foot size, the width of the lower leg of a person of normal build will be approximately 34 cm, and the height to the edge of the bootleg is 38 cm.

But this size is very difficult to calculate with non-standard body proportions, since with the same 37th size for a full person, the parameters will be much larger than those indicated.

How to choose the right shoes so as not to be mistaken with the size

Since in different countries there are different designations of sizes, many people often make mistakes when buying shoes over the Internet. To avoid such mistakes, it is necessary to carefully study the following issues before purchasing:

The manufacturer of which country made the shoes.

Usually, all manufacturers in the same country have the same shoe last, corresponding to the size chart of that country.

What shoe sizes are valid in a given country.

Even if countries are close by, the size of the shoe in them can vary significantly.

When determining the size of the shoe, the material from which it is made is also important.

What is the material of the product.

Genuine leather will stretch a little when worn, and synthetic materials do not have this property.

How to measure your leg correctly.

Instructions for taking foot measurements should be followed closely. It is better to measure in the evening, since the leg is trampled and enlarged during the day.

Even if everything is done correctly, do not rush to buy. You need to check all the nuances. You can also use the advice below.

To find out how German shoe size translates into Russian, the table is optional. Before buying online, you can try on a pair of shoes from the same manufacturer in any store, from the catalog of which you need to make an order. If there are no products of this manufacturer in the city, you can simply try on any German shoes.

Knowing your correct size, you can not be afraid to order shoes from any catalog of German manufacturers. However, it is worth remembering that it is best to buy leather shoes, since it is not only of high quality, but also much more comfortable to wear, and the material fits the leg well.

When choosing a size for yourself, you can use it constantly, and when choosing shoes for a child, you can always use these size matching tables.

How to determine the German shoe size in Russian (+ size table):

Tips for the correct size of shoes - in this video:

The Germans are extremely scrupulous in everything, even in terms of clothing sizes. And their sizing system is a retail nightmare. But our recommendations and these tables will help you make the right choice.

Let's try to understand this system - there are two types of height distribution:

165-175 cm (Gr 1 to 5), 175-185 cm (Gr 6 to 11), 185-195 (Gr 12 to 16) and 195-205 (Gr 17 to 20)
160-170 cm (Gr 1 to 5), 170-180 cm (Gr 6 to 11), 180-190 (Gr 12 to 16) and 190-200 (Gr 17 to 20)

Some things are of the first type, and some of the second. For each type, we provide a table on the website.

Within each growth, sizes are distributed by volume.

Pants in FLECTARN colors

Everything is simple here. Determine your height, measure your waist, check your hips, measure the inside and outside seams of your pants. If you do everything carefully, then it is impossible to make a mistake.

The size in this table does NOT apply to trousers in colors TROPENTARN(deserted). When choosing trousers in a tropentary, you should reduce the size by 5 cm.For example, the table indicates the height of 175-185, which means when choosing a tropantary you should change this column to 170-180 cm.If your height is 171 cm, then you should choose the waist circumference among sizes with Gr.6 to Gr.11. And we DO NOT look at the posts with the seam length.

Parkas & Shirts

When choosing the size of the Bundeswehr parka, it must be borne in mind that there is a tradition in the German army to wear short sleeves. Therefore, if you directly follow the German size chart, then many buyers will find the parkas short in the sleeves. For this reason, we have changed the table. If in the German system there was an increase of 175-185, then according to our table it will be an increase of 170-180. Although ... as you like ...

If you are sure of your size or you like the German tradition, then do not look at this table or add 5 cm to the height.For example, we have indicated a height of 160-170, which means that the original should be 165-175.

ATTENTION: clothing measurements are shown, but not body measurements. Armpit width is NOT related to chest girth. These are different values.

Sleeve length from the middle of the neck at the back (where the collar is sewn to the back) to the edge of the cuff.

Sleeve length from the sewing line of the sleeve to the edge of the cuff.

Armpit width.

Back height from hem to seam where the collar is sewn to the back.

Width between shoulder seams.

Membrane suits of the Bundeswehr (flektarn) are not gradated in height. The suits are designed for an average height (up to 178 cm) and have only five sizes, of which the Gr.V size is not found on sale (with rare exceptions).

Pants are often short, even for people of average height. Since they are designed to be worn with membrane gaiters and high-top boots / boots. The sleeves are usually short due to the German tradition of sewing military uniforms.

If length is a matter of principle, then choose one size larger than necessary.

Bundeswehr overalls.

Tank overalls in gray(except for flektarna), as well as for shirts (tunics) moleskin, the dimension is completely different. If you are used to wearing Gr8 parkas or trousers, then Gr8 overalls will not work for you.

In this talitza, we indicate the chest circumference indicated on the original tags, but we write our own height, which we recommend, since it is customary for Germans to wear short trousers on overalls. That is, for Gr5, for example, a height of 175-185cm is recommended, but on a person with such a height, trousers of this size will be very short. Therefore, we write the height we recommend in the table.

Bundeswehr shirts indicate the size of the collar (neck girth). For the convenience of our customers, we have translated the sizes and indicated the sizes of the American system (S-M-L-XL ...). Additionally, measure the length of the sleeve from the shoulder line to the edge of the cuff on your shirts. When ordering, choose according to the American size, and in the comments to the order, indicate how long the sleeve should be from the shoulder line. By the shoulder line we mean the seam with which the sleeve is attached to the shirt.

The girth of the palm is measured at the widest point of the palm, excluding the thumb.
