W.A.E: We All Eat is a Chicago-based streetwear and athleisure brand that centers its apparel around the inclusive idea that everyone deserves a seat at the table. In today's fashion world, inclusive sizing isn't just a trend-it's essential, especially for online shoppers who depend on precise size guidance to find clothes that feel like they were made for them. W.A.E's size-inclusive range reflects a commitment to comfort, confidence, and community, offering styles designed to fit a wide variety of body shapes and sizes without compromise. This approach recognizes that fit isn't one-size-fits-all, and it shapes the way each piece is created and sized. To make shopping easier and more reliable, W.A.E has developed a straightforward 3-step method that helps customers pick the perfect size from their collection. This method breaks down measurements, size matching, and final fit checks, ensuring every piece feels right from the moment it arrives.

Understanding W.A.E's Inclusive Size Range

W.A.E: We All Eat treats sizing as part of the message: everyone deserves clothes that fit, not just a narrow size band. Instead of stopping at a small cluster of core sizes, our range stretches in both directions, with extended sizes built into the line from the start, not tacked on later.

Standard charts often jump from size to size with big gaps, which leaves many bodies stuck between measurements. We aim to close those gaps. Each size is based on actual body measurements and fit trials, with attention to how streetwear and athleisure pieces sit on shoulders, hips, and waist during everyday movement.

Inclusive sizing shapes both comfort and style. A hoodie in a larger size is cut to drape cleanly without swallowing the body. A fitted tee in a smaller size allows room across the chest and arms so the graphic still sits flat and reads clearly. Sweatpants and leggings use graded measurements through the rise and thigh, not just the waistband, so sitting, walking, and stretching feel natural.

We design for real bodies: different heights, weight distribution, and proportions. That means thinking about how a crop hits on shorter and taller frames, how a coat layers over a hoodie, and how relaxed fits translate across the size run without turning oversized into sloppy or snug into restrictive.

The W.A.E size guide sits behind the whole system. Instead of a single generic chart, it breaks down detailed measurements and fit notes for each garment type-tees, hoodies, sweatpants, leggings, and outerwear. You see chest, waist, hip, and length measurements, plus short notes on how each piece is meant to fit, from relaxed to close.

Those measurements and fit notes form the base for the next step: actually matching your body and style preferences to a specific size in our range when you order online.

Step 1: Measuring Yourself Accurately for the Best Fit

The size guide only works if the numbers going into it are honest. Online streetwear and athleisure rely on body measurements instead of quick guesses, because fabric drape, stretch, and length all start with your actual frame. Once you have clean measurements, the W.A.E size chart does the heavy lifting.

What You Need Before You Start

• Soft measuring tape (the kind used for sewing)

• Full-length mirror if available

• Fitted clothing or underwear only, no bulky layers

• Notebook or notes app to record each number

Stand on a flat surface, feet hip-width apart, body relaxed. Do not suck in your stomach or flex. Breathe normally and keep the tape level around your body, not angled up or down.

Chest / Bust

The chest measurement lines up with the chest numbers in the W.A.E size guide for tees, hoodies, and outerwear.

• Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, usually across the nipples.

• Keep the tape straight across your back and parallel to the floor.

• Let your arms hang at your sides or lightly hold them out while someone reads the tape.

• Take the number where the tape meets, without pulling so tight that it digs into your skin.

Natural Waist

Waist numbers in the guide connect to joggers, sweatpants, leggings, and some tees with a shaped waist.

• Find the narrowest part of your torso between your ribs and hips; this is your natural waist.

• Wrap the tape around this spot, keeping it snug but not compressing.

• Stand straight, relax your stomach, and take the measurement after exhaling.

Hips

Hip measurements help match the fit for sweatpants, leggings, and any bottom that needs room for movement.

• Locate the fullest part of your hips and butt, usually a few inches below the waistband of mid-rise pants.

• Circle the tape around this area, staying parallel to the floor.

• Check in a mirror so the tape does not ride higher in the back.

Inseam

The inseam connects directly to the length notes for sweatpants and some joggers in the W.A.E size chart.

• Start at the top of the inner thigh, right where the seams meet on fitted shorts or leggings.

• Run the tape down the inside of the leg to the point where you want the cuff to hit, usually at the ankle bone.

• If possible, ask someone to help so the tape stays straight, or measure a pair of bottoms that hit the length you like.

Write every number down to the nearest half inch or whole centimeter. These chest, waist, hip, and inseam measurements are your reference set. They map directly to the body and garment numbers in the W.A.E size chart, which makes the next step-picking a specific size for each piece-clear instead of confusing.

Step 2: Navigating the W.A.E Size Guide for Your Perfect Match

With your measurements ready, the W.A.E size guide becomes a reference, not a guessing game. Think of it as a map: each garment type has its own section, so you are comparing chest to tees and hoodies, hips and inseam to sweatpants and leggings, not one generic grid.

Start by choosing the category that matches what you are buying:

• T-shirts and hoodies: Focus on chest and garment length. The chart lists chest ranges for each size, plus how long the piece runs from shoulder to hem.

• Sweatshirts and outerwear: Again, chest comes first, with extra notes on layering room so you know if it fits over a tee or a hoodie.

• Leggings, sweatpants, and joggers: Look at waist, hips, and inseam together. These sections show how the fabric stretches and how the rise and leg length shift between sizes.

Every garment line includes short fit notes. These are worth reading before locking in a size. Terms like relaxed, standard, or fitted describe how the piece is meant to sit on the body. Stretch notes tell you whether the fabric has firm hold, medium give, or easy flex so you can judge how close you want it.

Use your numbers as anchors. Take one body measurement at a time and line it up with the closest range in the chart, not the label you think you "should" wear. If your chest sits near the top of a size range for tees, and you prefer extra room, look at the next size up and check the length to be sure it still hits where you like.

Bottoms work the same way but often land between sizes. If your waist matches one size and your hips align with another, read the fit notes on stretch and rise. A stretchy legging with a higher rise may handle fuller hips in the smaller waist size, while a stiffer sweatpant might feel better in the size that matches your hip number first.

Inclusive sizing in the W.A.E guide avoids squeezing every body into a single pattern. Instead of forcing you to "fit the size," the charts and notes show how sizes flex for different shapes: broader shoulders with smaller waists, fuller thighs with slimmer hips, longer legs with shorter torsos. Our goal is to give enough detail that you pick the size that respects both your frame and your comfort level, setting you up for the last step: feeling confident about the final choice when you place an online order.

Step 3: Final Tips to Boost Confidence in Your W.A.E Size Selection

You have your measurements and you have matched them to the chart. The last move is pressure-testing that pick so it feels solid, not lucky.

Read The Fit Through Other Eyes

Customer reviews often reveal how pieces land on real bodies. Scan for comments that mention height, weight range, or usual size, along with notes like "runs roomy in the waist" or "sits cropped on longer torsos." Prioritize reviews from people whose build feels close to yours, and use their feedback to confirm whether you stay with your chosen size or nudge up or down.

Factor In Fabric, Stretch, And Layering

Not every W.A.E piece behaves the same once it is on. Before finalizing your choice, check three details:

• Stretch: For leggings and fitted joggers, a high-stretch fabric handles in-between measurements more easily. If you sit between sizes, the tighter range often works if the stretch is generous.

• Structure: Thicker fleece or outerwear with less give leaves less room for guesswork. In those cases, follow the largest key measurement (chest or hips) instead of trying to "make it work."

• Layering: Think about what you will wear under the piece. A hoodie meant to go over tees stays true to chart measurements. A coat meant to stack over a hoodie usually feels better with a bit more ease.

Use The Community And Support Tools

Online clothing fit tips hit another level when they are interactive. W.A.E's chat or support tools exist so you do not have to figure everything out alone. Share your key measurements, the item you are eyeing, and how you like pieces to sit-extra relaxed, standard, or close. That context lets us point you toward the size that matches both the chart and your style.

Inclusive sizing across the range means fewer gaps and fewer edge cases, which cuts down on guesswork and returns. Once you have checked reviews, thought through fabric and layers, and, if needed, talked it through with support, the three-step method lines up: honest measurements, smart chart matching, and a final confidence check. The result is simple-streetwear and athleisure that arrive feeling like they were made with your body in mind, instead of asking you to squeeze into someone else's idea of "standard."

Finding the perfect fit with W.A.E's inclusive sizing comes down to three key steps: taking honest body measurements, using our detailed size guide to match those numbers, and considering real-world fit through reviews and fabric details.
