Men's size guide

1) Size Guide: Zappify Men's Pants and Shorts

The perfect fit starts with choosing the right size. Use the chart below as a reference by measuring a pair you already own and that fits you well.

How to measure correctly?

1.      Waist: Measure the circumference of your waist at the level of the waistband (usually below the navel).

2.      Hips: Measure the widest part of the hip/glute area.

3.      Length: Measure from the side seam of the waistband down to the hem of the garment.

Tips to Get It Right

Shorts: For shorts, the average length typically ranges from 48 cm to 55 cm, depending on whether the style is shorter ("beach" style) or longer ("cargo" or "surf" style). 

The "Finger Test": When measuring the waist, try placing a finger between the measuring tape and your body. This ensures the pants won't be too tight.

Fabric with Elastane: Pants containing elastane (often labeled "Stretch") offer greater comfort. If you are between sizes and the pants contain elastane, the smaller size usually provides a more tailored fit. 

Pro Tip: "Always compare these measurements with a pair of pants you wear often. If your favorite pair has a 90 cm waist, look for the size on the chart that comes closest to that."

2) Size Guide: Men's T-shirts and Shirts

Choosing the perfect T-shirt means combining style and comfort. Use the chart below as a guide by measuring a shirt you already love to wear. 

How to measure correctly? 

1.   Chest: Measure the circumference at the widest part of the chest, just below the armpits. 

2.   Waist: Measure at the point where the shirt usually ends (at the waistband of your trousers). 

3.   Length: Measure from the highest point of the shoulder to the bottom hem.

4.   Sleeve: (For long sleeves) Measure from the top of the shoulder to the cuff.

Customer Optimization Tips

• "Slim" vs. "Regular" Fit: If the product description specifies "Slim Fit," the garment will fit closer to the body. If you prefer a looser fit, choose one size up. 
• Long Sleeves: When choosing long-sleeved shirts, ensure the sleeve length isn't too short; this prevents the cuff from riding up too high when you bend your arms. 
• Shrinkage: 100% cotton garments may undergo slight size changes after the first wash. When in doubt, always opt for the slightly larger size to ensure long-term comfort. 
• Smart Comparison: The best way to measure is to lay a T-shirt you already own flat on a surface, measure the chest width (under the armpit), and multiply that number by two. Compare the result with our size chart!

3) Size Guide: Zappify Men's Footwear

To ensure the best fit, measure the length of your foot and compare it with our chart. Keep in mind that different types of footwear may require slight adjustments for comfort.

How to measure your foot

1.      Pro tip: Measure your foot at the end of the day, when it is slightly more swollen from daily activity.

2.      The paper test: Place a sheet of paper on the floor against a wall. Step on it with your heel touching the wall.

3.      Mark it: Make a mark at the tip of your longest toe.

4.      Measure: Use a ruler to measure the distance from the edge of the paper to the mark.

Guidelines by Category

Sneakers (Performance/Sports): Since you typically wear thicker socks for physical activities, we recommend choosing a size 0.5 cm larger than your actual foot measurement to ensure comfort and prevent blisters. 

Dress Shoes: These generally run slightly large. If you wear a size 41 in sneakers, a size 40 in dress shoes will often fit perfectly. Always check the specific model's description. 

Sandals and Slides: Since the foot is fully exposed, the exact foot measurement is ideal. If you prefer having a little extra space at the heel, choose one size up. 

Wide Feet: If you know you have wider feet, opt for styles with adjustable straps (for sandals) or flexible materials (leather or stretch fabrics).
