Spain Clothing Size Chart: Spanish Sizes to US and UK

Spain has no single clothing-size standard that every brand follows: each Spanish store prints its own chart. Women’s sizes are even numbers, 34 to 44 at the brands we checked, and trousers use the same numbers as tops. Scalpers’ jackets run 46 to 58, and its shirts are numbered by the collar in cm.

At Bimba y Lola, Spain 38 is a UK 10 and a US 6. Some brands put UK 10 two numbers lower (Desigual’s tops charts pair it with Spain 36), so the tables below name the brand each one comes from. Spanish shoe sizes are EU numbers.

Letters (S, M, L) change from brand to brand. Compare your measurements in cm with the store’s own size chart, and check whether it lists body or garment measurements.

Women’s clothing sizes

Find your Spain size in the first column, or your UK, US or IT size; the next two tables give bust, waist and hips for each size.

Spain	UK	US	IT

38	10	6	42
40	12	8	44
42	14	10	46

Spain, UK, US and IT sizes from Bimba y Lola’s size guide, which uses one numbering for tops, dresses, coats and trousers. Other Spanish brands can differ, by up to two sizes in the UK column.

Spain	Bust (cm)	Bust (in)
34	80	31.5
36	84	33.1
38	88	34.6

44	101	39.8
46	106	41.7
48	110	43.3

Bust from Cortefiel’s chart, which does not say whether the figures are body or garment measurements; inches are cm divided by 2.54.

Spain	Waist (cm)	Waist (in)	Hips (cm)	Hips (in)
34	61	24.0	90	35.4
36	65	25.6	94	37.0

46	87	34.3	116	45.7
48	91	35.8	120	47.2

Waist and hips from Cortefiel’s chart, in cm with inches converted; Bimba y Lola’s pairing stops at size 44.

Brands measure differently. At size 38 the waist is 71 cm at Cortefiel and 71–74 cm at Desigual, so check the listing’s own chart. Desigual’s numeric chart for trousers, skirts and jeans also gives the German size:

40	38	44	12
42	40	46	14
44	42	48	16

Desigual’s numeric chart for trousers, skirts and jeans. Its tops charts pair the same measurements with a UK size two higher, so use this table for trousers only.

Men’s clothing sizes

Men’s jackets and suits

Find your Spain size in the first column; the second table gives the chest. In Scalpers’ formal chart and Zalando Privé’s suits table the size is half the chest in cm (size 50 is a 100 cm chest).

Spain	UK
46	36

Spain and UK sizes from Scalpers’ formal chart, where UK is the Spanish size minus 10. Scalpers prints no usable UK size at 58. From size 54 up, Scalpers’ UK number is above the chest in inches; go by the chest in cm.

Spain	Chest (cm)	Chest (in)
46	92–95	36.2–37.4
48	96–99	37.8–39.0
50	100–103	39.4–40.6

56	112–115	44.1–45.3
58	116–119	45.7–46.9

Chest ranges from Scalpers’ formal chart, which does not say whether they are body or garment measurements; inches are cm divided by 2.54.

Men’s shirts

A Spanish shirt size is the collar in cm. The UK column is the collar label in inches; the second table gives chest and waist.

Spain	UK	Collar (cm)	Collar (in)
38	15	38	15.0
39	15.5	39	15.4

44	17.5	44	17.3
45	18	45	17.7

Scalpers’ shirt chart. UK is Scalpers’ printed collar label in inches (15.75 is 15¾), which it rounds to the nearest half or quarter inch; Collar (in) is the collar in cm divided by 2.54.

Spain	Chest (cm)	Chest (in)	Waist (cm)	Waist (in)
38	92–95	36.2–37.4	80–82	31.5–32.3
39	96–99	37.8–39.0	84–86	33.1–33.9

44	114–117	44.9–46.1	104–106	40.9–41.7
45	118–121	46.5–47.6	108–110	42.5–43.3

Chest and waist of Scalpers’ shirts. Read chest ranges within one garment type: the same 92–95 cm is a shirt collar 38 here and a jacket size 46 above.

Men’s trousers

Scalpers sizes men’s trousers 38 to 50, not with the jacket numbers. Find your Spain size in the first column.

Spain	Waist (cm)	Waist (in)
38	80–82	31.5–32.3
40	84–86	33.1–33.9
42	88–90	34.6–35.4
44	92–94	36.2–37.0
46	96–98	37.8–38.6
48	100–102	39.4–40.2
50	104–106	40.9–41.7

Waist ranges from Scalpers’ chart; inches are cm divided by 2.54.

There is no UK or US column: Scalpers’ own UK numbers (30 to 36) do not match the waist in inches, and no other chart we checked gives a consistent UK or US trouser size. Use the waist in cm. Cut matters too. El Ganso’s chinos give the bottom of each waist range, and its 5-pocket trousers are 2 cm less.

Children’s clothing sizes

At Bóboli, children’s sizes are age labels over height bands: 4A (A is años, years) fits 99–104 cm. Choose by your child’s height, not by age, because other brands may label by height or by an age range.

Spain	Height (cm)	Height (in)
2A	87–92	34.3–36.2
3A	93–98	36.6–38.6
4A	99–104	39.0–40.9
5A	105–110	41.3–43.3
6A	111–116	43.7–45.7
7A	117–122	46.1–48.0
8A	123–128	48.4–50.4
10A	129–140	50.8–55.1
12A	141–152	55.5–59.8

Bóboli’s chart for boys and girls, which share these heights up to 12A; inches are cm divided by 2.54.

Spain	Height (cm)	Height (in)	US
2A	87–92	34.3–36.2	2T/3T
3A	93–98	36.6–38.6	3T/4T

7A	117–122	46.1–48.0	6X/7
8A	123–128	48.4–50.4	6X/7
10A	129–140	50.8–55.1	8/10
12A	141–152	55.5–59.8	12/14

A comparison by height, not a published pairing: Bóboli’s height bands set against The Children’s Place girls’ chart. A slash means the band covers two US sizes.

Shoe sizes

Spanish shoe sizes are EU numbers, so the first column is both the Spain and the EU size. The US and UK sizes come from Nike’s charts for adults and Adidas’s charts for children, because Spanish brands pair them differently. Other brands print EU sizes up to about 1.3 sizes apart for the same US size.

Youth shoes

Adidas’s kids’ chart by heel-toe foot length, US 5.5C to 12C. Nike’s foot lengths for the same sizes are 0.5 to 0.6 cm longer.

Bra sizes

The Spanish band is the EU band plus 15. It is a label, not a measurement in cm: band 85 fits an underbust of 68–72 cm. Cup letters are not converted here, because no chart we checked pairs Spanish cups with UK or US cups.

Underbust ranges from Ysabel Mora’s chart; inches are cm divided by 2.54. Measure without clothes, with the tape snug but not tight.

Hat sizes

Hats

A Spanish hat size is the head circumference in cm. Measure about 1 cm above the ears and round up to the next whole cm; for a hat worn deep on the head, add 1 cm.

Tips for ordering from Spanish stores

Match a garment you own. Desigual and Cortefiel both advise choosing the size of a similar item from the same brand that already fits you.
Measure your body where the store says. Bimba y Lola asks for the widest part of the chest, the natural waist and the widest part of the hips. Desigual, Scalpers, El Ganso and Cortefiel do not say whether their cm are body or garment measurements.
Read numbers, not letters. An S is Spain 38 at Bimba y Lola, Women’secret and Cortefiel, but Desigual’s S has the measurements of a 36.
14 days to cancel in the EU. When you order online from a seller in the EU, you can cancel within 14 days of delivery without giving a reason. If you return the goods, you pay the postage unless the seller offers to pay or did not tell you about the cost before you bought.
