We do our best to give accurate information in regard to products posted for sale in accordance with the below condition standard criteria. We do not take responsibility for sizing issues.

It is your responsibility to research the brand’s sizing. We will list measurements on each product, either by what is listed on the product tag or label, or by hand, and as such, this is an approximate sizing only.
