How to Measure Your Wrist for the Perfect Fit

Why Measuring Your Wrist Matters

Getting the right bracelet size is essential for comfort and style. A bracelet that’s too tight can feel restrictive, while one that’s too loose may slip off or rotate awkwardly. This guide will help you measure your wrist accurately to ensure the perfect fit.

What You’ll Need

• A flexible measuring tape (preferred)
• OR a piece of string and a ruler
• Optional: a bracelet you already own for comparison

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Wrap the measuring tape or string snugly around the part of your wrist where you’d normally wear a bracelet (just above the wrist bone).
2. Note the length where the tape meets or where you mark the string.
3. If using string, measure it flat with a ruler.
4. Add length depending on your fit preference:
   • Snug fit: Add 1/4 inch (0.6 cm)
   • Comfort fit: Add 1/2 inch (1.3 cm)
   • Loose fit: Add 3/4 inch (1.9 cm)
