What is the difference between Classic and Athletic fit AGSU?

Classic fit has a 3-inch drop from chest to abdomen on the coat. Athletic fit has a 5-inch drop and is cut for broader shoulders and hips; it is available in coat sizes 40 and up and trouser waists 29 and up.

Which regulation covers how the AGSU should fit?

AR 670-1 and DA PAM 670-1 govern wear and appearance of Army uniforms. The AGSU Basic Fitting Guide (PEO Soldier / Natick) publishes the size prediction tables this converter uses, including fit standards such as ¼ to ½ inch of shirt collar showing above the coat collar and the trouser crease reaching the instep.

What size AGSU do I wear?

Q: What do AGSU sizes like 40R or 12R mean?

For the male AGSU coat the number is your chest measurement in inches and the letter is the length code by height: XS under 5'5", S 5'5"–5'8", R 5'8"–5'11", L 5'11"–6'2", XL 6'2" and up. Female AGSU coats, slacks and skirts use misses sizes 4–26 with a fit type (Junior, Misses or Women's) and a length code: P under 5'3½", R 5'3½"–5'7", T 5'7"–5'10½", XT 5'10½" and up.

Q: Is my AGSU coat size the same as my civilian suit size?

Usually not. AGSU coats are sized to your actual chest measurement, while civilian suits are often vanity-sized. Uniform retailers report that soldiers frequently wear two to three sizes different from their civilian suit. Measure your chest with a tape and use that number.

Type the numbers off a tape measure and get your coat, trousers or slacks, shirt, garrison cap, necktie and belt in Army sizing — the 40R, 34S and 15½ × 32/33 codes Clothing Sales and Marlow White will ask you for. Male and female tables, straight from the official fitting guide.

My suit or jacket size is

Fills chest and waist with the midpoint for that size. Treat it as a starting point: uniform retailers report soldiers often land 2–3 sizes off their civilian suit, because suits are vanity-sized and the AGSU is cut to your real chest.

How AGSU sizing works

The Army Green Service Uniform doesn't use S/M/L. Each piece is sized off a body measurement plus a length code tied to your height, using the size prediction tables in the AGSU Basic Fitting Guide. Wear and appearance — how the finished uniform must look on you — is governed by AR 670-1 and DA PAM 670-1. The tables below are the ones this converter reads from.

Length codes

Male coat
Code	Height

Male coat and trousers

Coat size equals your chest in inches, 30–54. Classic fit assumes an abdomen 3″ smaller than the chest; Athletic fit (sizes 40 and up) assumes 5″ smaller. Trousers are sized by waist, 26–46, with Classic hips 5″ over the waist and Athletic hips 7″ over. Not every waist comes in every length — the converter tells you when yours doesn't.

Coat — chest to abdomen
Size	Chest	Classic abd.	Athletic abd.

Trousers — waist, hip, lengths

Male shirt

Shirts are sized by neck, 13½ to 20, in half-inch steps. Each neck size assumes a chest and waist; if yours are bigger than the chart, go up a neck size and have it taken in. Long sleeves come in 29, 30/31, 32/33, 34/35, 36/37 and 38/39.

Shirt — neck to chest and waist
Neck	Classic chest	Classic waist	Athletic chest	Athletic waist	Body

Female coat, slacks and skirt

Sizes run 4–26, even numbers, in three fit types that share a bust and waist but differ at the hip: Junior (narrowest), Misses, and Women's (fullest). The fitting guide's rule when your numbers land on different sizes: order the largest and have the other two spots taken in.

Coat — bust, abdomen, hip by fit
Size	Bust	Abd.	Junior hip	Misses hip	Women's hip	Lengths

Slacks & skirt — waist / hip by fit
Size	Junior	Misses	Women's

Shirt (overblouse) — one fit
Size	Bust	Waist	Lengths

Garrison cap, necktie, belt, shoes

The garrison cap runs 6⅜ to 8 in eighth-inch steps by head circumference. The necktie comes in Short (under 71″ tall) and Regular. The web belt comes in five lengths — 33, 35, 39, 45, 49 — chosen off your waist so the tip clears the buckle by no more than 2″. Oxfords use ordinary US shoe sizes: men's 5–16 in C, D, E and 3E widths; women's 4–14 in XN, N, M, W and EW.

Questions people ask

What do AGSU sizes like 40R or 12R mean?

For the male coat, the number is your chest in inches and the letter is a length code by height (XS, S, R, L, XL). Female coats, slacks and skirts use misses sizes 4–26 with a fit type (Junior, Misses, Women's) and a length code (P, R, T, XT). Male trousers use waist plus S/R/L/XL. Shirts use neck × sleeve for men and the same 4–26 sizes for women.

Is my AGSU coat size the same as my civilian suit size?

Usually not. The AGSU coat is cut to your measured chest, while civilian suits are often labeled a size or two smaller than the body they actually fit. Uniform retailers report soldiers frequently end up two to three sizes different from their suit. Measure, don't guess.

Classic or Athletic fit?

Classic has a 3″ chest-to-abdomen drop on the coat and 5″ waist-to-hip on the trousers. Athletic has a 5″ and 7″ drop respectively, for broader shoulders, chest and seat, and is offered in coat sizes 40+ and trouser waists 29+. The converter picks whichever drop your measurements are closer to, and shows both when it's a toss-up.

How is the AGSU supposed to fit?

Per the fitting guide: the shirt collar shows ¼ to ½″ above the coat collar at the back; the coat carries 3 to 5″ of ease at the waist; trousers and slacks carry about ½″ of ease at the waist with the front crease reaching the instep and a slight break allowed; the shirt has about 2½″ of ease at each side seam; the necktie falls at the top of the belt.

Is this official?

No. It's a free calculator built from the published size prediction tables. Treat the output as what to try on first — your Clothing Sales store, CIF, or uniform tailor makes the final call, and alterations are normal.
