Since this forum deals heavily in online ordering, ebay purchases, and some trading back and forth, I think it is useful to know the standardized method of measuring a jacket. I have recently seen some pretty wonky measurements given by members that I know had to be incorrect.
Posted below is an internet classic article about how to measure a jacket. It is used on some of the more popular boards (such as styleforum and AAAC). I posted it once in a thread, but I think it is worthwhile to attempt to bring as much attention to it as possible, so we are all speaking the same language. I take no credit for it, of course.
