The advantages of the Aliexpress trading platform are known to most Russian buyers: a variety of choices, relatively low prices, unique Asian products that are nowhere to be found. However, when choosing clothes, there is often confusion: the Chinese sizes of the Aliexpress clothes are completely different from the Russian ones.

The truth is that every buyer of clothes or shoes at Aliexpress expresses the risk of receiving goods of a different size. But, firstly, the magic of this Internet site is strong, and not everyone is able to resist it. Secondly, we can see daily examples of successful purchases in social networks and on thematic forums - therefore, you can adapt to the oddities of the site.

How to take measurements to choose the right size

Product parameters in the product description on Aliexpress are excellent help for the buyer. If the seller uses generally accepted European designations, using these numbers you can find out the exact size of the thing. To choose the size of clothes on Aliexpress, take measurements in one of the ways: on the body using a tailor’s meter or by measuring a similar thing from your wardrobe.

The most common notation:

Height - height. Weight - weight. This parameter matters if you are going to choose clothing size for children up to a year on Aliexpress. You should not rely on it when buying clothes for adults.
Length - product length. The phrase pants / dress / clothes length has the same meaning.
Width - product width. You can find in the description of wide t-shirts and other fitted clothes.
Bust, Chest - chest girth.
Waist - Waist.
Hips, Buttock - hip circumference.
Thigh - girth of the leg (one hip).
Cross shoulder - the width of the shoulders. The distance between the shoulder seams of the product.
Neck - neck circumference.
Neckline - T-shirt or top neckline.
Sleeve length - the length of the sleeves.
In a circle - full, circular girth.

Correspondence tables of Chinese and Russian clothing sizes

Each product on Aliexpress, with the exception of the Free size or One size format, has a dimensional grid. But with the same labeling, clothes from China are on average one to three sizes smaller than Russian ones. To understand in which system the seller indicated the size, pay attention to the comments on the table.

Children's size comparison chart

To make it easier for customers to determine the size, "American Express" is indicated by the American labeling of children's clothing and additional parameters: weight, height, age of the child, and so on. The letter M stands for months - the child's age in months. The T mark indicates the Toddler category - children from two to five years old.

The size	Age	Height
3M	3-6 months	up to 60 cm
6M	6-9 months	up to 65 cm
9M	9-12 months	up to 75 cm
12M	12-18 months	up to 80 cm
18M	1-1.5 years	up to 90 cm
2T	2 years	up to 100 cm
3T	3 years	up to 110 cm
4T	4 years	up to 120 cm

IMPORTANT! Often you can find a disclaimer in the table or description of the product, from which it follows that the values \u200b\u200bare approximate and that the size needs to be specified in the store. It is also worth noting that in Asian countries they love supermini skirts and a shortened 7/8 sleeve. Thus, the tables will only help you better navigate, but it is better to write to the seller.

Be that as it may, but the most popular places for online shopping are Chinese sites. TaoBao, Aliexpress, Ebay, Focalprice, etc. Each title sounds like music. Here is a good choice, a lot of interesting offers, and, best of all, low prices. But almost every buyer at the first order of clothing is faced with disappointment: the size indicated in the description is several times smaller than the Russian ones. Today we have prepared a cheat sheet for you, according to which you can easily navigate in the features of not only Asian, but also European sizes!

To any lot, a description of its length, girth and dimensions is always given. Sometimes the data is indicated in centimeters, sometimes in inches, and periodically simply using the symbols XS, S, M and L. If you are avoiding the mass market and have always preferred a domestic manufacturer, then for starters we will carry out educational program for matching Russian and American sizes, so as in the future we will resort to the designation of the latter.

What are the sizes?

So, Russian indicators are our data in centimeters, divided by two. That is, if your chest circumference is 92, then you should choose clothes with a tag 46 (92 divided by 2 \u003d 46). In American labels (and most European), the letters S, M and L are used, with the addition in the form of the prefix X (eXtra). eXtra Small (XS) - Small (S) - Medium (M) - Large (L) - eXtra Large (XL) - eXtra eXtra Large (XXL), etc. All letter designations have Russian equivalents. S - 44 size, M - 46 size, L - 48 size and further by analogy.

But we can also meet European brands of clothes, where instead of letters numbers are used (36, 38, 40, etc.), which initially can be confusing, and we will begin to search for the data we are used to, surprised that somehow the thing sits not really, or rather - frankly hanging. The thing is that European sizes differ from Russia by six positions. That is, plus the numbers +6 indicated on the tag, and in the end you will get the necessary data. For example, Euro 38 - Russian 44.

Russian size	US size	European size
40	XXS	34
42	XS	36
44	S	38
46	M	40
48	L	42
50	XL	44
52	XXL	46

And since with the introductory part, I hope everything is clear, we will begin to study the realities of the Asian market.

Asian realities

The first thing we strongly advise is to arm yourself with a ruler and some wardrobe item from your daily life. Clearly measure the length of a T-shirt, dress or trousers and write in a notebook. So you will know in advance how long the ordered sweater will end, and whether it will be able to warm your stomach, or simply cover your chest.

If the product description has a clear table with dimensions, you can roughly imagine the final result. Just in case, convert your measurements to inches. 1 inch - about 2.5 cm. Please note that it is better to order a size larger, since hemming clothes is always easier than stretching.

If there is no such table, and you are given only S, M or L sizes to choose from, it will not be superfluous to write to the seller and specify what sizes are indicated, American or Chinese? Asian designations are 1-2 sizes smaller than the usual American ones!

It is important to remember the differences when buying shoes. In this case, foreign designations are commonly used (5, 6, 7, etc.). I note right away that most often the largest female size of shoes you like will be 39, so those with 40 and 41 on Chinese sites have almost nothing to catch, unfortunately. In men, the situation is more promising.

In order to make it easier to remember, you can still write down your sizes in the same notebook in various calculus systems. Believe me, it will take a minute, but then you can easily navigate in the world of not only online, but also offline shopping, especially abroad.

Also useful for girls (and their men) will be a table of matching ring sizes. After all, the choice of jewelry on Chinese sites is really amazing, and finding an engagement ring there, for example, is a very good idea.

Underwater rocks

Now let's talk a little about dirty tricks. Start with regular, or one size, which is especially common when buying underwear or hosiery. One size is the usual characteristics of an Asian girl. That is, it is always either XS, or, at best, S. In terms of tights, size 2 or 3 (that is, not for long-legged beauties). The only option for those who do not fit the Chinese idea of \u200b\u200bstandard is to look for products with elastic. For example, regular size leggings are also suitable for girls 46 and 48 in size. As you can see, not everything is lost!

And finally, I’ll tell you about a trick, which, alas, is almost impossible to predict. About negligent sellers. This rarely happens, but it happens. You may not get what you ordered. Since your size, for example, ran out of stock, and the seller decided, without warning, to send you what is left - most often very small sizes. In this case, feel free to open a dispute and demand your money back!

Well, we, in turn, will try to always provide you with useful information and guide you in the world of foreign online shopping. Enjoy your shopping!

Hello, many people ask me How to determine the size on Aliexpress clothes, shoes for men, women, children in Chinese Aliexpress in Russian. I have been ordering in this online store for a long time and nowhere in more than one seller I have not seen uniform size standards. Since I switched to shopping on the Internet a long time ago, I’m tired of seeing these snickering faces of businessmen - owners of local stores, who are bidding on prices for similar goods like Aliexpress.

The biggest problem A purchase or order on Ali is the inability to try on a thing. In this article I have given the main dimensional grids and Chinese sizes, European, American (USA) for different countries.

Many of my friends to be afraid order things and shoes with Aliexpress, as afraid to make a mistake in size. BUT this is a big nonsense, every seller in the product description has dimensional grids either in millimeters or in sanitary meters, and you just have to measure yourself with an ordinary sticky meter or ruler and compare the results with the seller’s size chart on Aliexpress. How to properly measure yourself about this further ...

ATTENTION: the dimensional grids and tables presented below are suitable for Chinese online stores Joom (Jum) and Pandao (Pandao).

BUT there is my golden rule: use the measurement tables and dimensional grids given by the seller in the description of each product and read the comments and reviews of your fellow citizens under the products (easily determined by the language of writing and the flag of the country). The more the number of stars and orders from the seller, the better (determined in the figure below), and if there are comments and reviews below the goods of real buyers along with the photo, you can safely order! If in doubt, then proven way it is to contact the seller directly and ask for the information you are interested in. For communication, I used a Google translator, in which Russian is well translated into international - English (USA), and did not constitute a big problem in understanding (advice: build simple sentences for communication).

Chinese sellers, as well as around the world, usually indicate sizesin the form of letters, see below in the figure:

* i: to enlarge, click on the picture.

Designation: Translation:

XXL (extra extra large) simply huge.
XL ( extra large ) - is considered very large.
L ( large )- big.
M (medium) - medium.
S (small) - small.
XS (extra small) is very small.

Determine the size of aliexpress in Russian according to the table

Before you look at the rest of the tables for measuring clothes and shoes, you should familiarize yourself with the small subtleties of the designation, for example, the Roman numeral X is added to the larger sizes incrementally and, accordingly, the more they are in front, the size will increase in arithmetic progression. XXL is greater than XL, and XXXL is greater than XXL and so on. It happens so as not to make a fuss of X, they are simply replaced with 5XL, 6XL, 7XL, I noticed this among sellers selling large-sized dresses, shirts, shirts, trousers, that is, they specialize in stores for fluffy and full forms. And usually special words are indicated in the description: fat women big size, large-size extra large, plus size womens, ladies fashion large sizes, their meaning is easy to understand, for example big size- translates as very large size. It should be noted that the Chinese brothers are a nation that is usually thin and short in stature, according to this, on the ru site. aliexpress.com, you often come across a little thing.

English words and signs that can come in handy when communicating with the seller: shoulder (shoulder width), sleeve (arm length is the distance from the shoulder to the wrist), chest / bust (chest volume), waist (waist volume), hips (hip volume) , neck (neck girth for jackets with a collar and blouses).

It may be that the designations are presented in the great Chinese language, but there will also be no problems with this. Use the picture below.

But before you look at the comparative tables for a start, measure yourself, since the measurement method for men and women is different, look at the figures below.

Size chart of women's clothing China (Asian sizes)

Remember that the anthropometric parameters of women there are much smaller. ATTENTION! Click on the image to enlarge.

As can be seen from the above figures, and outfits sewn in the Middle Kingdom are much smaller. And if we consider 42 to be “our” size, then it’s worthwhile to dwell on a confident 44th or even 46th, especially when it comes to outerwear.

Despite the fact that the table helps to translate Asian sizes into Russian, it is still worth reading customer reviews - they always have information on the compliance of models.

When choosing a coat or jacket, you should especially be careful about tall girls who may have short sleeves. Here you should not forget about the miniatureness of the eastern women and, when making a purchase, we must take into account the length of the hand.

The same situation with Chinese trousers and jeans - so that they fit well, we look primarily not at the size, but at the length of the legs.

American Women's Clothing Size Chart (USA)

This is the case when Asian sizes are the very opposite with respect to the sizes of US women's clothing, because on the contrary they will be larger. Also click on the image below to make it larger.
