Space-Dye Hoodie: Compare Flat Bust Width and Hem Length

Use the Small–3X flat bust and length chart for this orange-green side-slit hoodie, then check its pocket and hem against your own outfit.

The orange and green space-dye hoodie combines a hood, a front kangaroo pocket and side slits. Its many narrow color bands make the gallery more useful than a single color name when you plan an outfit. The current selector lists Small, Medium, Large, 1X, 2X and 3X. Before choosing one, compare the listing’s flat bust width and shoulder-to-hem length with a hoodie you already wear.

Start with a flat hoodie, then plan the layers

Lay your reference hoodie flat without pulling the fabric. Measure straight across from side seam to side seam at the bust, then from shoulder to hem along the same route used for your reference. The source explicitly calls its bust values “side seam to side seam,” so these are widths across the laid-flat item, not body-chest circumferences. It does not provide a diagram or say where on the side seam the tape starts. If your reference has a different cut, treat the numbers as a comparison prompt rather than an exact fit prediction.

Source-listed measurements in inches
Size Flat bust width Shoulder to hem
Small 21 27
Medium 22 28
Large 23 29
1X 25 31
2X 26 32
3X 27 33

The step from Large to 1X adds 2 in to the listed flat bust width and 2 in to the length; adjacent steps elsewhere add 1 in to each. For example, if your reference hoodie measures 23 in across and 29 in long, Large matches those two figures numerically. If you want to compare 1X for a longer line over a shirt, note that it is also wider; do not treat length as the only change. Sleeve length, shoulder width, hem width and measured stretch are absent, so ask for those values if they decide whether you can wear it under your usual jacket.

Use the pocket and side slits as an outfit check

First, try your reference hoodie with the jeans or skirt you expect to wear. Note where its hem falls and whether a longer top would cover a waistband or meet a pocket. Next, check where a crossbody strap or open jacket lies against the front: the pictured hoodie has a central kangaroo pocket, so a strap or jacket edge may cross that design detail. Finally, look at the side-view gallery photo and compare its slit placement with the untucked hem you prefer. These are visual planning checks, not claims that the slits change mobility or that the pocket fits a particular object.

The source lists 82% polyester, 15% rayon and 3% spandex and describes the knit as stretchy, but gives no measured extension, warmth rating or wash test. “Thermal” is part of the product name; it does not establish a temperature range. Check the current gallery, size selector and price before ordering, and request a garment diagram if your reference measurement falls between sizes.
