Streetwear brand size M is not the same. Japanese brands like BAPE run smaller, while Essentials are cut oversized and run larger. If you choose the same size for every brand, you may end up with something that is too tight or too loose. This article combines how to choose sizes for each brand on one page.
Size comparison chart for each brand
This chart uses people who wear size M in standard brands as the baseline (e.g., Nike or adidas).
| Brand | Brand fit | If you normally wear M, choose |
|---|---|---|
| BAPE | Japanese sizing, short body, narrow sleeves | L (up 1 size) |
| Human Made | Japanese sizing, boxy body, many models are short | L for a normal length / M if you like a cropped fit |
| Stussy | Standard sizing, loose boxy fit | M |
| Supreme | Mostly standard sizing, fit varies by season | M, then compare actual measurements |
| Chrome Hearts | Mostly standard sizing | M, then compare actual measurements |
| Denim Tears | Comfortably loose fit | M, then compare actual measurements |
| Essentials | Oversized, dropped shoulders, long body | M = loose fit as intended / S = fitted |
The fit of each model and season may vary. This chart is just a starting guide. Comparing actual measurements is always the most accurate method.
How to measure shirts accurately
- Lay your favorite-fitting shirt flat on the floor
- Measure the chest width from armpit to armpit
- Measure the body length from the highest point of the shoulder to the hem
- For drop-shoulder shirts or hoodies, also measure the sleeve length
- Compare it with the actual measurements of the item you want to buy. A difference of no more than 2–3 cm is considered close.
The store does not accept returns, so checking the size before purchasing is very important. Message LINE @nicefeetth and send us the measurements of the shirt you usually wear. Our team can measure and compare every item for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size should I wear if I'm 175 cm tall?
Height alone cannot determine your size, as your chest circumference, weight, and preferred fit matter a lot. Measure the shirt you usually wear and compare it using the method above. It is much more accurate.
Should I buy a larger size in case it shrinks?
It is not necessary. If you wash in cold water and do not tumble dry, cotton clothing shrinks very little. It is better to choose a size that fits you now.
Are pre-owned clothes true to size?
Mostly, but clothes that have been washed may shrink slightly. The store can measure the actual size of every item before purchase.
