SKIPPER size charts
The right size is essential for optimal wearing comfort. Here you will find the size chart for men's underwear with the measurements for all SKIPPER products (undershirts, tank top, boxer shorts and men's briefs): take a quick measurement, compare your values with the matching table and choose your size. You can also find the measurements as an image in the product gallery.
How to measure correctly: chest and hip circumference
- Chest circumference (undershirts & tank top): Place the measuring tape horizontally under your armpits around the widest part of your chest. It should fit loosely without constricting. Choose your size based on this value.
- Hip circumference (boxer shorts): Place the measuring tape horizontally around the widest part of your hips.

These measurements apply to all SKIPPER undershirts (crew neck, V-neck and deep V-neck, each in 100 % cotton and in stretch cotton) as well as the tank top. The cut is a modern slim fit and pleasantly slightly tailored.

Fit tips
Undershirts & tank top
If you are not between two sizes, simply choose your usual size according to the table. Our undershirts are cut to fit best for exactly that. If you are between two sizes, take the larger size.
The cut by material:
- 100 % cotton: a little more loosely tailored than the stretch version.
- Stretch cotton with elastane: slightly closer to the body; the material adapts to your body without restricting.
The length: Our undershirts are cut slightly longer than conventional undershirts so that they stay securely tucked into your trousers.
Boxer shorts
Our boxer shorts have a modern fit and are made from extra-soft fabric. They adapt slightly to your thigh measurements. So simply choose your usual size according to the table.
