'How to take measure'

To make your new leathertrousers fit correctly we need your measures. We can offer two possibilities:
1. You send us a pair of well fitting trousers as a sample (no stretch)
2. You take your measures yourself. If you take them when wearing your underwear, we need your favorite fitting (tight or loose). For a better orientation you can also choose your favorite trousers when taking your measures.
In this case please follow the red instructions. Stretch pants are not appropriate. Please tell us all measures in centimeters.
