Mermaid tail what size?
Check out our handy size chart and discover immediately which tail size fits best.
Determining the correct size
To determine the correct size, it is important that you know the circumference of the waist and the distance from the navel to the ankles. Please note: the size says nothing about the age . Size 8 is therefore not necessarily for an 8-year-old. Always measure the waist and the length, view the extensive information here .
Mermaid tail what size: waist
The mermaid tail should not be able to slide down while swimming. That is why it is important to look at the circumference of the waist. Measure your waist over your navel. Make sure you do not pull the tape measure too tight, keep a finger between your body and the tape measure. After you have measured the waist, continue measuring the distance from the navel to the ankle.
But what about the length?
Although the waist is the most important, the length should also fit well. Because the fabric is stretchy, you have some leeway here. If the size chart indicates 85 - 94 cm, then this is the ideal length. But if the actual length is 97 cm, the tail will also fit perfectly in this case. A few centimeters of deviation (higher or lower) is therefore no problem. To measure the length, measure the distance between your belly button and your ankle. The best way to measure this is along the side of the leg.
Now that you have both measurements you can use the size chart to determine the correct size. You can find the size chart above.
We often hear that someone prefers to buy a mermaid tail a size bigger, so that they can wear it longer. In itself this is understandable, but keep in mind that this does not benefit the swimming pleasure and wearing comfort. You can also choose to sell your "old" tail at a later time and buy a size bigger.
If you are between 2 sizes, you can choose the largest one. If it is still a bit too loose, you can easily have the waist taken in.
