A LITTLE NOTE ON VINTAGE SIZING

Finding the perfect vintage blazer should feel just as special as wearing it.

At Refoundd, every blazer is carefully selected for its quality, character and timeless appeal. But when it comes to vintage fashion, sizing can sometimes be a little different from what you're used to.

And that's exactly why this guide is here.

VINTAGE SIZING, EXPLAINED

Many of the vintage blazers in the Refoundd collection were originally designed as menswear. But beautiful tailoring has never belonged to just one gender.

Fashion is for everyone. And so is the perfect blazer.

Some vintage pieces no longer have their original size labels, while others come from Italian or French fashion houses, where sizing standards can differ from today's European measurements.

Even when a size label is present, it doesn't always reflect how a blazer will fit today.

That's why Refoundd believes in looking beyond the label.

EVERY DETAIL, MEASURED WITH CARE

To make finding your perfect fit as effortless as possible, every unique blazer is individually measured and described.

In each product description, you'll find the following measurements, taken with the blazer laid flat:

  • Pit to pit: The width from one underarm to the other.

  • Waist: The width of the blazer at the waist.

  • Hem width: The width across the bottom of the blazer.

  • Length: The total length of the blazer.

  • Sleeve length: The length of the sleeves.

All measurements are provided in centimetres, allowing you to compare them with a blazer you already own and love.

Because when it comes to vintage, the measurements tell you so much more than a size label ever could.

YOUR FIT, YOUR STYLE

Based on these measurements, Refoundd provides an estimated size recommendation for every blazer.

You'll find the suggested size in the product title, along with a more detailed size and fit recommendation in the description.

But here's the beauty of vintage tailoring: one blazer, endless possibilities.

A blazer recommended as a size L for a regular fit might be the perfect oversized statement piece for someone who usually wears an XS or S.

Whether you prefer a beautifully structured silhouette, a relaxed fit or that effortlessly oversized look, it's all about how you choose to wear it.

There are no rules when it comes to personal style.

For the most accurate fit, Refoundd always recommends taking a moment to read the full product description and compare the measurements with your own wardrobe.
