Sizing Guide — How Do Ralph Lauren Products Fit?

Ralph Lauren sizing is generally consistent with standard US sizing, but there are a few things to know before you buy:

• Polo shirts: Classic fit runs true to size with a relaxed shoulder and chest drape. Slim fit styles size down one size for the best look. The cotton piqué fabric has a bit of natural stretch.
• Cable knit sweaters: Many styles have a slightly oversized or relaxed fit, especially the women’s cable knit collection. Stick to your usual size for the intended look, or size down for a more fitted silhouette.
• Bomber and varsity jackets: These typically run true to size, but if you plan to layer a heavy sweater underneath, consider sizing up one.
• Joggers and sweatpants: The drawstring waist is adjustable. Inseams are standard, usually 30-32 inches.
• Corduroy pants: Available in both slim taper and classic straight fits. Check individual product descriptions for specific measurements.

Always check the individual product measurements on each product page at OopBuy before ordering, especially for outerwear and tailored pants.
