- Elastic Waist Board Shorts are sized with "lettered" sizes (SM, MD etc.) with an elastic waistband that makes them able to cover 2 "numbered" sizes (2/4, 6/8, etc.)
- Elastic Waist Board Pants and Capris are sized with the "numbered" sizes (8, 10, 12, etc) For size info on the "numbered" sizes, click here
- To order the best size simply measure a pair of your favorite NON elastic waist shorts or pants as shown in the photo below. Double that number (to get the circumference) and then buy the corresponding size from the chart below. Using that photo as an example the correct size is 19" across x 2 = 38". The size chart indicates SZ XL for 37.5" - 41" so this is the one:)
- Board Shorts will comfortably accommodate Hips up to 10" larger than the Waist Sizes indicated below.
