Online Clothing Shopping Gets A Major Face Lift

Generic size charts are a thing of the past when it comes to finding clothing online. Shopping for clothes online is a luxury for many busy families, however without being able to try on the clothes first, consumers are hesitant to add to their shopping carts. End Quote

Portland-Vancouver, OR-WA (1888PressRelease) September 10, 2009 - Get My Size has recently launched their website which will allow users and businesses to work together to ensure the right size clothing is found online. Americans spend over $20 billion a year shopping for apparel online. Yet consumers are still skeptical when it comes to making clothing purchases without being able to try the item on first.

Get My Size will allow visitors to the site to be able to create a “body profile” with specific measurements ranging from arm length to torso length to upper-leg length and beyond. Businesses will also be able to add apparel they wish to sell on the website by measuring clothing with specific measurements that will coordinate with the body profile measurements. A shoe company can add a pair of shoes and input the length, width, and ankle circumference of the shoe. A user can then conduct a search with their foot length, width, and ankle circumference and the closest matches will show up in their search.

"I was so frustrated when buying clothes online” explained Ryan Illingworth, Founder of Get My Size. “Even the same size shirt from the same brand can fit differently. This site will allow businesses to provide consumers with the best fitting clothing for their unique body types.”

Get My Size is also free to use, so a small business owner will be able to compete with larger businesses when selling their items. In addition to specific measurements, the brand name and size show up in the product description, as well as the price, up to four pictures, detailed descriptions and a space for the URL to be posted so that a potential buyer can link directly to the page where the item can be found.

This site will also work well for users who wish to create a profile or add apparel in centimeters. It will automatically convert inches to centimeters and vice versa, depending on how the user decides to conduct their search. This will benefit users in foreign markets who wish to purchase clothing from U.S. businesses.

A mother or father can create an account and add separate accounts for their children. All measurements will be stored in the website’s database which will make searching for clothes much more efficient.

Finding the correct size the first time is always a challenge when buying online, and this site will cut back, if not eliminate returns on items that fit improperly.
