How to Measure

D. WAIST/MIDSECTION

First, remove your belt. Then, measure over shirt (not over pants) at the position you normally wear your pants. Hold the tape firmly but not tightly. For shirts and covering garments such as coveralls - measure midsection over clothing around the fullest part of the abdomen.
