Ripstop Utility Shorts
Size guide
Welcome to the SÜK Size Guide. We’re hoping to make online shopping even easier by providing all our insider info about sizing and fit.
We offer a body measurement chart and a garment measurement size chart. Our sizes follow Australian numerical sizing. There is no standardised size system for clothing, so there can be variation between brands and clothing labels. This is also why we don’t provide a size conversion, as there’s no perfect way to convert sizes.
Ripstop Utility Shorts Fit Guide
The Ripstop Utility Shorts run true to SÜK size, with a slimmer fit. However, our new ripstop fabric means they will keep their size and will not give or loosen like other 100% cotton fabrics. So we recommend keeping this in mind when you chose your size and size up if you are in between sizes or prefer a little more room.
Garment Measurements
All measurements are in centimetres.
These measurements are taken from the flattened physical garment, and then doubled to achieve an accurate measurement. Each chart is specific to each individual style. There is a variation of 1-2cm per garment, as our styles are prewashed and preshrunk before we send them to you.
You can use garment measurements in two ways:
- Measure an existing comfy item of clothing and compare it to our chart.
- Measure your body, add approx 3-5cm across all measurements except your waist to allow for the garment to sit comfortably on your body, and compare to our chart.

Fitting notes
Fabric Tip
Our new ripstop fabric will arrive at your door light and crisp, as you wash and wear these garments they will soften to create more drape and age beautifully. However, they will keep their size and will not give or loosen like other 100% cotton fabrics. So we recommend keeping this in mind when you chose your size and size up if you are in between sizes or prefer a little more room.
Measuring Tip
If you can, measure yourself in your undies. You should hold the measuring tape firm (but not digging in) to your body, with no twists or clothing in the way.
Fitting Tip
Our garments are designed to fit a wide range of bodies. In order to have the best fit, some styles are better suited for certain bodies shapes. This is all subjective, and you can wear what you like! These are just recommendations and what we’ve found suits from our time fitting people in store.
Style Tip
Sorry, no plumbers bum here. We’re all about high waisted pants. All our styles are designed with this in mind.
