The Perfect Fit Guide

Crafting Your Signature Legacy London Look

At Legacy London, we believe the perfect fit transcends mere measurements—it's about how our garments complement your unique style while maintaining the sophisticated balance of British heritage and contemporary design. This comprehensive guide will help you discover your ideal fit across our collections, from our signature Riviera Collection to our Heritage Lines.

Whether you're investing in our iconic Legacy Wide Rib Knitted Polo or exploring our Curated Essentials, understanding your perfect fit ensures each piece becomes a lasting part of your wardrobe journey.

Master Your Measurements

Chest Measurement

Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape horizontal and relaxed. For our signature knitted polos, we recommend allowing 2-3 inches of ease for the perfect drape.

Pro tip: The Milano Textured Zipper Polo is designed with a tailored fit that shapes beautifully to your measurements while maintaining breathability.

Shoulder Width

Measure from the outer edge of one shoulder to the other, following the natural line where our garments should sit. This is crucial for pieces like our Heritage Bloom Crewneck.

Sleeve Length

Measure from the shoulder point to where you want the sleeve to end. Our Designer Jumpers collection features carefully calculated sleeve lengths for optimal comfort and style.

Finding Your Fit Style

Athletic Build

For athletic builds, our Men's Collection offers tailored fits that celebrate your shape while ensuring comfort. The Johnny Collar Textured Knit Polo is particularly flattering, with its precise shoulder fit and subtle waist definition.

Consider sizing up in our fitted styles for additional comfort across the chest and shoulders, while maintaining our signature silhouette.

Classic Build

Our Curated Essentials collection is perfectly proportioned for classic builds, offering a balanced fit that enhances your natural shape. The Pure Cotton Striped Knit Polo exemplifies this versatile fit.
