adidas Men's
Size Chart
Compare adidas men's clothing measurements for shirts, jackets, pants and shorts in inches and centimeters. Find your XS–3XL size, check regular versus Tall and Short fits, and see how to measure correctly.
How to Find Your adidas Men's Size
Start with a tape measure, then compare your chest, waist and hip measurements with the official adidas men's clothing size ranges below. The tables cover the brand's standard alpha sizes from XS through 3XL, and show the imperial and metric values side by side.
The measurements here are for the body rather than the finished garment. That distinction matters because two pieces labelled M can have different cuts. A performance T-shirt may be closer fitting, while a casual fleece set may have extra room. Brands exploring original silhouettes can also review VANRD's custom tracksuit manufacturing options.

Regular vs Tall vs Short adidas Sizing
adidas offers additional length options for selected men's garments. These affect proportions without simply increasing or reducing the body circumference measurements.
Regular
Standard men's bottoms inseam references are approximately 32–32.5 in (81–83 cm), depending on size.
Tall / Long
For men over 6 ft 2 in, when available. Tall men's bottoms inseams range around 34–34.5 in (86.5–88 cm).
Short
For men up to 5 ft 9 in, when available. Short bottoms inseams are around 30–30.5 in (76–78 cm).
Length availability varies by product. Check the specific product size information instead of treating these ranges as a guaranteed garment measurement.

How to Measure for adidas Men's Clothing
Use a flexible tape measure over light clothing or close to the body. Keep it level for circumference measurements, and stand naturally rather than holding your breath.
Chest
Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape horizontal under the arms.
Waist
Measure around the narrowest part of your natural waist without pulling the tape tight.
Hips
Keep your feet close together and measure around the fullest part of the hips.
Inseam
Measure vertically from the crotch toward the floor. Follow product-specific guidance for the intended pant length.
Develop Original Sportswear Sizing for Your Brand
An established apparel size chart can provide a helpful market reference, but it should not replace your own garment measurements, grading rules and fit samples. A regular-fit training top and an oversized streetwear set require different finished specifications.
VANRD develops private-label collections through fabric selection, pattern development, sampling and production. For example, brands can build original sizing across custom T-shirts, hoodies, and tracksuits without using another brand's proprietary patterns or logos.
adidas Men's Size Chart FAQ
Answers to common questions about reading the tables and choosing among different apparel fits.
Does adidas men's clothing run true to size?
The size chart describes body measurements rather than guaranteeing the fit of every garment. A slim training top and a loose streetwear hoodie may feel different in the same labelled size, so also check the individual product’s fit description.
What is a men's medium in adidas?
For standard men's tops, M corresponds to a chest measurement of 36.5–39 inches (93–100 cm) and a waist of 32–34.5 inches (81–88 cm). The official size chart uses the same waist range for men's bottoms.
How do I choose between two adidas sizes?
Compare your body measurements with the relevant chart and consider whether you prefer a closer or roomier fit. For bottoms, waist and hip measurements are useful together; check product-specific guidance for special fits.
Are these body measurements or garment measurements?
Chest, waist and hip figures are body measurements. The inseam values are the brand's standard bottoms length reference, but the finished inseam may vary by product and length option.
What is the difference between adidas regular, Tall and Short sizes?
Tall and Short use the same general circumference ranges within corresponding sizes but have different length proportions. The adidas U.S. guide describes Tall for men over 6 ft 2 in and Short for men up to 5 ft 9 in.
Can VANRD develop an original sportswear size chart for my brand?
Yes. VANRD provides pattern and size-specification development for custom sportswear and streetwear collections. Share your intended product, target customer, reference fit and tech pack through the VANRD inquiry page to discuss a custom specification.
