1. What is Jacket Size Calculation?

The jacket size calculation combines both height and weight factors to determine the most appropriate jacket size for an individual. This method provides a more accurate fit than using either measurement alone.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the jacket size formula:

Where:

• Height Factor:
  • Below 160 cm: 1
  • 160-169 cm: 2
  • 170-179 cm: 3
  • 180 cm and above: 4
• Weight Factor:
  • Below 60 kg: 1
  • 60-69 kg: 2
  • 70-79 kg: 3
  • 80 kg and above: 4

3. Importance of Proper Jacket Size

Details: Wearing a properly sized jacket ensures comfort, allows for freedom of movement, and provides the best appearance. An ill-fitting jacket can be uncomfortable and unflattering.
