How does Knot Standard sizing work?
Fact-checked 2026-09-29 · every claim links to its source below
What Knot Standard publishes
- No size chart as of September 2026: "All our products are customized and tailored according to individual measurements." The measurement form is the size chart.1
- Three intake routes: an in-showroom stylist, self-entered measurements online, or an AI-powered Fit App scan.13
- The warning most buyers skip: Knot Standard recommends being measured in person or via its Fit App because its methods "are specific to Knot Standard and may differ from conventional tailoring". Another tailor's sheet is not interchangeable.1
- The form takes 14 inputs: height and weight, neck, shoulder, arm length, chest, bicep, stomach, waist, wrist, seat, jacket length, u-rise, thigh and pants length.2
- They are mostly body measurements ("Measure the circumference of the chest at the pectoral muscles"), but "jacket length" and "pants length" are garment dimensions sitting inside a body-measurement form — that mixed sheet is exactly where a self-measuring buyer goes wrong.2
- Measurements are saved as a reusable digital pattern: "Your measurements have been saved temporarily. Please create an account to permanently store them for future orders."2
- A timing fact that is really a sizing fact: allow "no less than 8 weeks prior to your special occasion, to allow time for alterations (if it is your first order)". The first order is expected to need fitting.1
If you get it wrong
- "Our Concierge team will quickly make any alterations required, and adjust your pattern for all future orders"; away from a showroom they "reimburse for local alterations (up to $100), or remake your entire garment free of charge".4
- Refunds are credit only: "Refunds are issued as Showroom or Service credits only." No claim window is published on the guarantee page as of September 2026.4
- A third-party review reports a "30-day money back guarantee" on a first order. That is not stated on the brand's guarantee page and conflicts with the credit-only line there, so it is recorded here as a contradiction rather than repeated as a fact.54
“I’m incredibly grateful for the Team at Nathan Taylor’s, I had the absolute best experience from the WhatsApp video call to the customer service… they are top notch. I can’t recommend them enough and will definitely be purchasing more suits from them. Cảm ơn!”
“Suit arrived! It’s incredible, amazing job thank you.”
“Ordered two suits and four shirts, remotely from the US. They fit great and are great quality! Was able to do everything over WhatsApp for measurements, etc. Will definitely visit if I ever make it to Hoi An. Highly recommend!”
“Being a short and stocky person, I could never truly get clothing that fitted properly. "Off the rack" was never an option... As I opened the small box, I got nervous and wondered if I made a big mistake and basically gambled away a fair amount of money. I ordered a 3 piece suit, 2 shirts and had a pair of leather dress shoes. Everything fitted nicely... the shirts were absolutely PERFECT.”
“Very satisfied; incredibly skillful to make clothes fit so perfectly. Beautiful fabric exactly as promised, very neat — would simply love to order from here again!”
“They did such an amazing job, my suit fits perfectly and the craftsmanship is superb! Linda was a great help and she knows exactly what she is doing. I can't recommend this place enough and I will be getting more suits from them in the future guaranteed!”
“Great place to get perfect suit, they send me to Poland with no problems.”
“WOW! Ordered a suit online with Linda. She contacted me by video call to go through the measuring process and once confirmed measurements again, around 4 weeks later a made to measure suit arrived in the UK. Fitted perfectly and I didn't even visit! Fantastic quality and customer service from Linda. Would definitely recommend!”
“Exceptional experience from start to finish. I ordered a fully custom two-piece double-breasted suit remotely from France, Linda and Jennifer guided me through every step with patience and professionalism. The suit arrived in under 3 weeks and the result is flawless: fabric, cut, lining, silhouette, everything is perfect. Nathan Tailors delivered exactly the vision I had in mind. I will absolutely be ordering again. Highly recommended.”
“This was my first time buying suits online so I was a bit apprehensive. However, the online order form was both easy to use and very thorough, and they did a video call with me to make sure of a couple of measurements that were out of the normal range. Two suits and a shirt arrived here in New Zealand in less than two weeks, are well-made, and fit perfectly. I'm thrilled with the service.”
Questions people ask
Does Knot Standard have a size chart?
No — "All our products are customized and tailored according to individual measurements" 1. The 14-input form is the chart 2.
Can I send Knot Standard measurements from my own tailor?
Not safely. The brand asks to measure you in person or via its Fit App because its methods "are specific to Knot Standard and may differ from conventional tailoring" 1.
What does Knot Standard actually measure?
Height and weight, neck, shoulder, arm length, chest, bicep, stomach, waist, wrist, seat, jacket length, u-rise, thigh and pants length 2. Note that jacket length and pants length are garment dimensions inside an otherwise body-based sheet 2.
How early should I order for a wedding?
At least 8 weeks, and the brand says why: to "allow time for alterations (if it is your first order)" 1.
Can I get my money back if it does not fit?
Not as cash — "Refunds are issued as Showroom or Service credits only" 4. The remedy is concierge alterations, up to $100 of local alterations, or a free remake 4. A third-party review claims a 30-day money-back guarantee, which the brand page does not support 5.
