How do I choose the right size Faffie if I’m unsure?
To find the perfect fit, we recommend this simple method:
- Take a pair of your underwear and lay it flat on a bed.
- Use a ruler or measuring tape to measure the waistband (elastic area) from left to right in centimeters.
- Compare your measurement to the “Garment Waist (cm)” section on our size chart (men’s or kids).
When in doubt, we suggest sizing up for a more comfortable fit. For example, if you usually wear pants size 32, you’d typically be a size 32 or 34 in Faffies. Our speedos come with an adjustable drawstring, so you can easily tighten them for the perfect fit!
