The problem

Why US sizes don't match Indian sizes

US sizes typically run 2-3 numbers larger than Indian sizes — a US Medium often equals an Indian Large. Brands also vary widely (no enforced standard), and US sizing assumes proportions that may not match Indian body types. Use the charts below + your actual measurements (not your usual Indian size) to find your fit. Shop US-imported fashion on CrowCrowCrow — duties, GST, and customs handled.

Sizing tips for ordering US products

  • →US sizing runs larger. A women's "Medium" in the US is roughly an Indian "Small". Men's US shoes are typically one size above UK/Indian.
  • →Always check the brand's own size chart on the product page if available. Brands like Levi's, Old Navy, Nike, and Adidas have their own quirks.
  • →Measure yourself in inches rather than guessing — bust, waist, hip for clothing; foot length for shoes. Match measurements to the brand chart, not just the size letter.
  • →Read the recent reviews for sizing tips — buyers often note "runs small" or "size up" in the first few lines.
  • →If still unsure, WhatsApp us at +91 9403891289 with the product link. We'll check the brand's fit notes and recommend a size before you order.
Body type

Sizing by body type

US sizing assumes proportions that don't always match Indian body types. Adjust by your shape:

🍐 Pear (hips > shoulders)

Most common Indian women's type. Order to fit your hip — size up one US size from your bust/shoulder measurement. Try Levi's Curvy Fit or Old Navy Curvy for jeans.

⏳ Hourglass (defined waist)

Standard US sizing usually fits true to size. Look for "fitted" reviews. Bodycon and wrap styles hug your waist without restricting bust or hip.

🏃 Athletic / rectangular

US athleisure brands (Nike, Lululemon, Under Armour) fit this body type well in standard sizes. For dresses, "belted" or "shift" cuts create waist definition.

➕ Plus / curvy (14W+)

Order from a brand's plus collection, not the standard collection sized up. Top US plus-friendly brands: Eloquii, Torrid, Universal Standard, Athleta Plus.

Still unsure? Message our sizing team with the brand, item, and your measurements — we'll check fit reviews before your order ships.

Step-by-step instructions

  1. Wear thin, fitted clothing

    Measure over light clothing or undergarments only — bulky clothing adds inches and skews your size. Take measurements at the end of the day when your body is at its natural fullest.

  2. Measure your chest or bust

    Wrap a soft tape measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape parallel to the floor and snug but not tight. For women, measure across the nipple line. Record in inches.

  3. Measure your waist

    Find your natural waistline — the narrowest part of your torso, usually about an inch above your navel. Wrap the tape comfortably; you should be able to slide one finger underneath. Record in inches.

  4. Measure your hips

    Stand with feet together. Wrap the tape around the widest part of your hips and butt, usually 7-9 inches below your waistline. Keep the tape level. Record in inches.

  5. Measure your foot length

    Place your foot on a sheet of paper, mark the heel and longest toe, measure the distance in centimeters. Measure both feet — use the larger measurement. Best done at the end of the day when feet are at their largest.

  6. Compare against the US size chart

    Use your measurements (not your usual Indian size) to find your US size on the conversion charts on this page. When you fall between two sizes, size up — it's almost always easier to take in a slightly large garment than to stretch a tight one.

  7. Cross-check the brand's own size chart

    Each US brand has its own sizing — your US size on Levi's may differ from your US size on Old Navy. Always check the specific brand's chart for the item you're ordering, especially for fitted styles like jeans or dresses.

Frequently asked questions

Are US sizes bigger or smaller than Indian sizes?▾
US clothing sizes typically run a full size larger than Indian / UK equivalents — a women's US "Small" is roughly an Indian "Medium". Men's US shoes are usually one number above UK/Indian. Use the charts above for a quick comparison.
What if the size doesn't fit when it arrives?▾
Reach out within 14 days under the 14-Day Smile Guarantee — WhatsApp +91 9403891289 or email care@crowcrowcrow.com. If the product is unworn with original tags intact, we arrange free pickup at our cost and issue a full refund within 5-7 business days.
Do US shoe sizes match Indian sizes exactly?▾
Not exactly — US men's shoes typically run one number above UK/Indian (US 9 = UK/IN 8). For US women's shoes, the gap is usually two numbers (US 8 = UK 6). Always cross-check with the foot length in cm when available.
Can I get a size recommendation before ordering?▾
Yes — WhatsApp +91 9403891289 with the product link and your usual Indian size or measurements. Our team checks the brand's specific fit notes and recommends a size before you check out. Reply usually within a few hours on business days.
Do US clothing brands run small, true to size, or large?▾
Most major US brands (Levi's, Gap, Calvin Klein, etc.) run true to US size, which is 1-2 sizes larger than Indian equivalents. Athleisure brands (Lululemon, Nike) tend to run truer-to-Indian-fit.
What is the difference between US Misses, Women's, and Plus sizes?▾
US Misses sizes (0-16) are standard adult women's. Women's sizes (14W-24W) are designed for fuller figures with adjusted proportions. Plus sizes (1X-5X) overlap with Women's sizes. Always check the specific brand's size chart.
Why does the same US size fit differently across brands?▾
There is no enforced US sizing standard. Brands target different body types, so a US 8 at one brand may equal a US 6 or 10 at another. Use measurements (chest/waist/hip in inches), not size labels, for the most reliable fit.
What is XXL size in India in 2026?▾
Indian XXL is the same as US XXL — it fits a US numeric size 16, with a 42-43 inch bust, 34-35 inch waist, and 44-45 inch hips for women. Indian retailers sometimes label this as size 44. The two markets use the same letter sizing system, so XXL on a US-imported garment fits the same person it would in India.
What is US M (Medium) size in India?▾
US M (Medium) is the same as Indian M for both women and men. For women, M corresponds to US numeric sizes 6-8, with bust 36-37 inches and waist 28-29 inches. Indian numeric label: 38. For men, M is chest 38-40 inches and waist 31-33 inches. Imported US M garments fit Indian M wearers without converting.
What is US L (Large) size in India?▾
US L (Large) maps directly to Indian L. For women, that's US numeric sizes 10-12, bust 38-39 inches, waist 30-31 inches. Indian numeric label: 40. For men, L is chest 41-43 inches, waist 34-36 inches. The letter sizing is identical across both markets, so no conversion is needed.
What is US XL size in India?▾
US XL matches Indian XL. For women, it covers US numeric size 14, with bust 40-41 inches, waist 32-33 inches, hips 42-43 inches. Indian numeric label: 42. For men, XL is chest 44-46 inches, waist 37-39 inches. Same person size in both markets.
What is US S (Small) size in India?▾
US S (Small) is identical to Indian S. For women, this is US numeric 2-4, bust 34-35 inches, waist 26-27 inches, hips 36-37 inches. Indian numeric label: 36. For men, S is chest 35-37 inches, waist 28-30 inches. Buy your usual Indian Small in a US-imported brand.
What is US size 4 in India?▾
US women's numeric size 4 maps to Indian S (Small), Indian numeric label 36. Body measurements: bust 34-35 inches, waist 26-27 inches, hips 36-37 inches. If you wear an S in Indian brands like Westside or Pantaloons, a US numeric 4 will fit you.
What is US size 6 in India?▾
US women's numeric size 6 corresponds to the lower end of Indian M (Medium), Indian numeric label 38. Body measurements: bust 36 inches, waist 28 inches, hips 38 inches. If you typically wear an Indian M, US size 6 (or 6-8) will fit you in imported brands.
How do I convert a US clothing size to Indian size?▾
For both men's and women's clothing, US letter sizes (XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL) match Indian letter sizes one-to-one — no conversion needed. For US numeric women's sizes, the rule of thumb is: US 2-4 = Indian S, US 6-8 = Indian M, US 10-12 = Indian L, US 14 = Indian XL, US 16 = Indian XXL. For shoes, Indian and UK sizes are typically identical and run roughly 2 sizes below US (e.g., US 8 women = Indian 6).
