07. What size am I?
Since different brands indicate sizes differently (i.e. Eckös medium garments are always bigger than Cheap Monday's) we measure every garment we recieve. To see the measurements, click on the "Info"-link under a product.
To be sure that the garment you order will fit, we recommend that you measure a similar garment that fits you well (lay it on a flat surface and measure) and compare its measurements to the measurements of the garment you want to buy. To make things easier, you can save your measurements under your member profile. That way you'll always have your measurements with you when you're browsing Zoovillage, and can easily compare them to the garments you're interested in. Click here to enter your measurements.

Hat size
Take a hat that fits you well and measure the circumference around the bottom. An eaiser way is to take the diameter times pi (3,14).
Belt
This is the measurement of which waist size the belt is fitted for. The waist size is the circumference around your waist where the belt should be.
Shoes
The lenght of a shoe is measured from the heel to the end toe tip on the inside of the shoe. The best way to find out your shoe measurement is to find a pair of shoes that fits you well and measure the inside of them. You can also measure your foot from heel to the toe point; then add an extra centimeter to be sure that your foot will fit in the shoes.
