How to Measure Your Wrist to Choose the Right Bracelet Size
When it comes to choosing the perfect bracelet, size matters. Whether you're shopping for yourself or selecting a gift, getting the right fit ensures comfort and style. At Dynamis Jewelry, we want to help you find the ideal bracelet size, so here’s a simple guide on how to measure your wrist accurately.
Why Proper Sizing is Important
A bracelet that fits well not only enhances your overall look but also ensures comfort throughout the day. A bracelet that is too tight can be uncomfortable, while one that’s too loose may not stay in place. Getting the right size is especially important for our handcrafted pieces, where the perfect fit showcases the design beautifully.
What You’ll Need:
- A flexible measuring tape
- A piece of string or ribbon (if you don’t have a measuring tape)
- A ruler (if using string)
- A pen and paper to note down the measurement
Step-by-Step Guide to Measuring Your Wrist
Step 1: Measure Your Wrist
-
Using a Measuring Tape:
- Wrap the measuring tape around your wrist just below the wrist bone, where you would normally wear a bracelet.
- Ensure the tape is snug but not tight.
- Note down the measurement in inches.
-
Using a String:
- If you don't have a measuring tape, you can use a piece of string or ribbon.
- Wrap the string around your wrist in the same way.
- Mark the point where the end of the string meets the rest.
- Lay the string flat against a ruler and measure the length to get your wrist size.
Step 2: Add Some Slack
- For a snug fit, add 1/4 to 1/2 inch to your wrist measurement.
- For a comfortable fit, add 3/4 to 1 inch.
- For a loose fit, add 1 1/4 inches or more.
This adjustment ensures the bracelet sits comfortably on your wrist without being too tight or too loose. For thicker bracelets, like The Legend Heavy Bali Silver Bracelet, we recommend adding a minimum of 1 inch slack for a comfortable fit. This extra slack accommodates the bracelet's bulkier design, ensuring it moves freely on your wrist.
Step 3: Choose the Right Size
Now that you have your measurement and have added the desired slack, you can select the correct bracelet size from our available options:
- 7 inches
- 7.5 inches
- 8 inches
- 8.5 inches
- 9 inches
If your wrist measurement, after adding some slack, falls between two sizes, we recommend opting for the larger size to ensure a more comfortable fit. For example, if your wrist measures 7.25 inches, choosing a 7.5-inch bracelet would be ideal.
