How to Measure a Man's Waist Size
- 1). Pull out a tape measure and wrap it around your waist. You will want to measure directly above your hipbones. It is easiest to do this with a cloth tape measure.
- 2). Place the tape measure so that it is held snugly, but not too tight or too loose. You will want the tape measure to be level with your belly button.
- 3). Make sure that the tape measure is even on all sections of your waist and jot down the measurement so that you can take it with you to your doctor's appointment, or when you are shopping for new clothing.
