How
to fit Ruf DuckŪ rainwear:
Size to fit over the bulkiest garments the customer will wear under the rainwear. Some workers in protected environments may only wear shirt or sweatshirt, others may wear an insulated parka. Fit to the bulkiest clothing they will wear during the year.
With the jacket or overall on the customer, 4" of fabric should be pinchable on each side at the largest circumference of the body. For some this will be at the chest, some just above the belt, others around the hips. Another way to fit the jacket is to overlap the jacket 12 to 14" in the front.
This may result in a feeling of "too big!" but the working person will recognize the comfort in the freedom of movement and tempering ventilation. The design of the garment acts like a bellows, circulating out perspiration laden air as you walk and work.
We intentionally made the sleeve length and pant length longer than average. Most people prefer garments to be a little long rather than too short. For those who find the sleeve or pant too long, they can shorten them using a home sewing machine, duct tape, etc. We have never been able to stretch a too short garment!!!
