Quick answer
Measure your waist where the waistband sits, usually just below the belly button, not your jeans size. Most Indian innerwear brands, such as XYXX and DaMENSCH, size in steps of about 6 cm: S is 74–80 cm, M is 80–86 cm, L is 86–91 cm, XL is 91–97 cm and XXL is 97–103 cm. Jockey's own chart runs larger, so check it before you buy Jockey. If you fall on a boundary, take the larger size for boxers and the smaller for briefs.
How to measure
- Measure around your waist at the height your underwear waistband sits.
- Keep the tape level and snug over bare skin.
- Pick the style; boxers fit looser, so you can size up if between sizes.

Frequently asked questions
Is underwear size the same as jeans size?
Not quite. Jeans are labelled by waist in inches, but often fit lower and looser. Measure where the underwear waistband sits for the right size.
What size underwear for a 32 waist?
A true 32-inch (81 cm) waist is M in most Indian brands.
Do briefs and trunks use the same size?
Yes, within one brand. Trunks and boxers have longer legs but the same waistband sizes.
