RASH GUARDS / NO-GI SHORTS / UNISEX FIT
GRPL runs large. Use height and weight to find a starting point, then compare to a No Gi set you own with the exact measurements below.
01 / READ THIS FIRST
Every measurement in the charts below is taken from the garment laid flat. The easiest way to choose is to measure a rash guard or pair of shorts you already like, then compare those numbers with the GRPL chart.
GRPL products are unisex and run large. Women and smaller male athletes will commonly start between Youth Large and Adult Small, depending on height, build and preferred compression.
Allow approximately 1–2 cm manufacturing tolerance. Height and weight can narrow the options, but chest, torso length, waist and fit preference should make the final decision.
02 / HEIGHT + WEIGHT STARTING POINTS
These ranges are practical starting points, not guaranteed fits. Two athletes at the same weight can need different sizes.
| Height | Weight | Rash guard start | Shorts start | Fit note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 150–165 cm | Under 60 kg | YL–YXL | YXL–S | Smaller adult athletes should begin in youth sizing. |
| 150–165 cm | 60–65 kg | YXL | S | A common starting point for women around 5′1″ and 60–64 kg. |
| 165–180 cm | 65–75 kg | YXL–S | S–M | Use torso length for the rash guard and waist for shorts. |
| 180–193 cm | 75–90 kg | S–M | M–L | Taller lean athletes often need length without extra width. |
| 165–180 cm | 90–105 kg | L–XL | L–XL | Chest, waist and preferred compression decide the final size. |
| 180 cm+ | 105–125 kg | XL–3XL | XL–3XL | Compare garment width and length before ordering. |
03 / REAL-WORLD REFERENCES
Women smaller than this often begin with a Youth Large rash guard. Confirm shorts using the waist measurement.
A useful example of why rash guard and shorts sizes do not always match.
Choose within the range based on preferred compression and how much room you like through the waist.
At the same height, extra chest and waist measurement can move the fit up several sizes.
04 / HOW TO MEASURE
Measure straight across the rash guard from armpit to armpit. Full chest is double the half-chest measurement.
Measure from the highest shoulder or collar point straight down to the bottom hem.
Lay the shorts flat without stretching the waistband and measure straight across the top.
Measure from the top of the waistband down the outside edge to the bottom of the leg opening.
