Use the Numeric Row Behind These Paired US/Japan Shorts Labels
Compare waist, hip and length across seven paired US/Japan labels instead of converting the letters through an unrelated regional chart.
The vintage pocket straight shorts pair each US label with a Japan label, then give a separate numeric chart. Use the measurements as the common reference; do not convert from one regional letter to another outside the listed pair.
Follow the paired row
| Paired label | Waist | Length | Hip |
|---|---|---|---|
| XS(US)/M(Japan) | 70 cm | 58 cm | 112 cm |
| S(US)/L(Japan) | 73 cm | 59 cm | 116 cm |
| M(US)/XL(Japan) | 77 cm | 60 cm | 120 cm |
| L(US)/2XL(Japan) | 80 cm | 61 cm | 124 cm |
| XL(US)/3XL(Japan) | 83 cm | 62 cm | 128 cm |
| 2XL(US)/4XL(Japan) | 87 cm | 63 cm | 132 cm |
| 3XL(US)/5XL(Japan) | 90 cm | 64 cm | 136 cm |
Hip rises by 4 cm and length by 1 cm at every step. Waist alternates between 3 cm and 4 cm increases. This makes the numeric row more informative than assuming the letter sequence grows evenly. Check waist and hip together, then use length to judge the intended below-knee or knee-area placement on your reference garment.
Request the missing vertical measurements
The source lists polyester, a loose type and casual style, but it does not give rise, inseam, leg opening, pocket dimensions, waistband construction or a measurement tolerance. It also does not state whether waist and hip are body recommendations or finished-garment circumferences. Confirm those details before treating the row as an exact fit prediction.
Khaki, Black and Light Grey are the listed colors. The rise and length guide helps organize the missing vertical checks.
