We did a thorough guide to find the perfect and ideal fitting for a viaterra miller jacket before wearing it. However, if you’re someone who is looking forward to buying this jacket for the first time then you need to know how to take measurements of your upper body to find the ideal size of the jacket that matches your body type.
So, without further ado let’s dive into the guidelines or steps to take measurements to find the perfect fitting for a Viaterra Miller Riding Jacket.
Taking measurements is not that complicated
Ok, if you’re wondering how complicated it's going to be to take the measurements, then you don’t have to worry about it. You only have to take two measurements:
- Chest Circumference – The measurements of your chest.
- Waist Circumference – The measurement of your waist.
Ideally, to take the measurements you need a measuring tape or a tailor's tape. If you don’t have a measuring tape, you can use a suitable long piece of string and place it against a ruler or even a measuring tape.
However, for the accuracy of measurements, we ask you to use the measuring tape instead of string.
Taking measurements the right way for the riding jacket
Now, if you’re going to take the measurements, you better ask someone for help instead of doing it yourself this way the numbers will be much more accurate.
So, for the chest circumference, make sure you measure it at the widest point just below the underarms. Ensure that the tape or string whatever you’re using is level around the entire body.
Just like this, the measurements of the waist should be taken at a point approximately 1 inch below the belly button and once again ensure that the tape or string you’re using is level around the entire body and is not held too tightly.
Now you just need to match the measurements you have taken against the size chart provided on the website, to find the right size for you.
What to do if your measurements fall in different size brackets?
Since each person’s body size is different chances are that your chest and waist measurements may fall in different size brackets. For example: The chest measurements fall in medium size but the waist falls large.
Then you can either opt for a small size if you prefer a sportier fit or you can go for the larger size if you’re looking for more relaxation and comfort.
Conclusion
By following these steps, you can take measurements to find the perfect size match for your new Viaterra Miller Riding Jacket, just so you can ensure the best comfort.

FAQ: Finding the perfect measurement for the Miller Riding Jacket
Q: How often should I take the measurements?
A: You just need to take measurements once and that is before buying. In case you already own the riding jacket and it feels tight then try loosening the cinch straps slightly and see if that improves the fit. If the tightness persists, you may need to consider exchanging the jacket for a larger size.
Before exchanging you can take the measurements once again so you can opt for the right size.
Q: What if I'm between sizes?
A: If your measurements are close to the boundary between two sizes, it's often recommended to choose the larger size for added comfort.
Q: Can I adjust the jacket's fit?
A: Some jackets have adjustable features like waist cinches or Velcro straps to customize the fit.
Q: Should I consider layering?
A: If you plan to wear layers underneath the jacket, choose a size slightly larger to accommodate the additional bulk.
