Babywearing Jacket Sizes - Find Your Fit

mamalila · Size advisor

Which size fits you?

Our size recommendations don't come from a theoretical chart – they're based on the real measurements of women and men. People of all shapes and sizes tried on our jackets, measured themselves and told us what actually fit. More than 220 of these fit reports have gone into this size finder.

1Grab a tape measure
2Measure your bust and hips
3Pick a style – done

Your measurements

Measure in cm or inches – we'll convert automatically.

Bust in cm Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape level.

Hips in cm Measure around the widest part of your hips and bottom, keeping the tape level.

Height in cm optional Helps us get the length and sleeves right.

Waist in cm optional Measure at the narrowest point – for tips on the cut.

Style

Enter your bust or hip measurement and your personal size recommendation will appear here.

Size chart based on real fittings

These figures show which size the women and men in our fittings wore at which measurements. If your chest and hips fall into different sizes, use the size finder above – it weighs both measurements in the way that worked best for the people who tried on our jackets.

Generous fit

mamalila jackets are cut a little larger than many other brands, so it's best to compare your measurements with the chart below.

Expecting or just had your baby?

Simply order your usual size. Inserts and extensions make room for your bump and for your baby in a carrier – up to around 2 years.

What will you wear underneath?

A chunky jumper or a thin top? Snug or relaxed? Keep that in mind when choosing – the fit notes on each product page will help too.

Step 1

How to measure

Measure twice, buy once – and wear it for years. Taking your measurements first saves you returns, which is better for the planet too.

Tape measure – or string and a ruler
Wear what you'd wear under the jacket
Keep the tape loose, don't pull it tight

1Bust

Let your arms hang relaxed and measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape level.

2Hips

Measure around the widest part of your hips and bottom.

3Arm length

From the base of your neck (where a T-shirt collar sits), over your shoulder and elbow down to your wrist.

Step 2

Compare with the chart

Find the column that best matches your measurements. If you're between two sizes, enter your bust and hips in the size finder – it shows you which size worked best for women and men with similar measurements.

International sizes

How our sizes compare with standard clothing sizes in Europe, the UK and the US. As mamalila comes up a little large, your body measurements are the more reliable guide.
