The Complete BAPE Size Guide

Men's, women's and kids' body measurements in centimetres, plus BAPE shoe sizing and a size finder.

Updated October 2026

BAPE sizes are keyed to your body, not the garment: a men’s M fits 160–170 cm tall with an 88–96 cm chest, and the men’s range runs S to 3XL. The charts below are A BATHING APE’s official body measurements in centimetres for men’s, women’s and kids’ clothing, plus BAPE’s shoe conversion.

BAPE Men’s Size Chart (cm)

This is a body chart, not a garment chart, so you size from your own height and chest whatever the piece. Find the row where your height and chest both fit; if they point to different sizes, chest decides.

Size Height Chest Waist Hip
S 155–165 80–88 74–76 90–95
M 160–170 88–96 76–79 95–100
L 170–178 96–104 79–84 100–105
XL 178–188 104–112 84–91 105–110
2XL 188–196 112–120 91–99 110–115
3XL 196–203 120–127 99–104 115–120

Relaxed Fit vs Regular Fit

Many BAPE pieces carry a fit name in the title. Relaxed Fit pieces are cut wider: BAPE publishes separate garment charts for its Relaxed Fit tees, and a medium measures 51.5 cm across the shoulder against 47 cm for its standard tee.

BAPE Color Camo Relaxed Fit Shark Full Zip Hoodie Navy
  • Regular Fit, such as the BAPE One Point Regular Fit Pullover Hoodie ‘Black’: take the size the chart gives you.
  • Relaxed Fit, such as the Shark Full Zip Hoodie pictured: the chart size gives a wider shape through the shoulder; size down only if you want a closer fit.

BAPE’s women’s chart uses bust instead of chest and starts at 2XS.

How to Measure

Chest and height decide most BAPE clothing sizes; waist and hip matter for bottoms.

BAPE One Point Regular Fit Pullover Hoodie Black
  1. Chest: wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, level all the way round.
  2. Height: stand straight against a wall with your heels touching it.
  3. Waist and hip: measure around your natural waist, then around the widest part of your hips.

BAPE Sizing FAQ

What size BAPE hoodie should I get?

Use your height and chest. BAPE’s men’s chart puts M at 160–170 cm tall with an 88–96 cm chest and L at 170–178 cm with a 96–104 cm chest. If your height and chest point to different sizes, go by chest.

Is there a separate BAPE hoodie size chart?

BAPE’s main size chart gives body measurements rather than garment measurements, so you size a hoodie from your own height and chest. Pieces labelled Relaxed Fit are cut wider than standard pieces in the same size.

How do I measure for a BAPE size?

Measure your chest around the fullest part with the tape level, and your height standing straight against a wall with your heels touching it. Then match both numbers to BAPE’s chart.

What if I’m between BAPE sizes?

Take the smaller size for a closer fit, or the larger one for more room through the body. Remember that a Relaxed Fit piece is already cut wider.

Does BAPE have a kids’ size chart?

Yes. BAPE kids’ sizes run from 70 to 160 and are keyed to height: size 100 fits 95–105 cm, roughly 1–2 years, and size 160 fits 155–165 cm, around 13 years.

How do BAPE shoe sizes convert?

BAPE lists men’s US 9 as UK 8, EU 42.5 and 27 cm. Find the size you know in any column and read across the row.
