Determine your bra band size

measuring band size


Maybe you already know your band size and are happy with it. That’s great.

Are you a man looking for a bra? See my article ‘How do men measure their bra size?’

But if you doubt your bra band size even just a little, my advice is to take about 10 minutes of your time to check your size.

Hold the measuring tape firmly around your underbust and write down the outcome.

You might just be in between two possible band sizes. This is very normal.



Remember that going up or down a band size will change the volume of your cup size too. For example, a bra in 44A has a different cup volume than a bra in 44B. The bras 44A and 46AA do have the same cup volume. They are called sister bra sizes
