How to measure ring size at home

  1. 1. Pick the right time

    Measure at room temperature—usually afternoon or evening. Cold fingers run smaller; swollen or post-workout hands run larger.

  2. 2. Choose a method

    String or soft tape for a new measurement; an existing ring’s inner diameter for the most accurate home result; or our printable ring size chart printed at 100% scale.

  3. 3. Measure circumference in mm

    Wrap at the finger base where the ring will sit—snug, not tight. Mark the overlap, lay flat, and note length in millimeters (preferred over inches for charts).

  4. Or measure an existing ring

    Place a well-fitting ring on a ruler and read the inside diameter in mm. Match that number on the diameter (mm) column of the ring size chart.

  5. 4. Convert to US, UK, or EU

    Open the ring size converter (By Measurement) or find your mm row on the chart. UK shoppers: read the letter column (e.g. L½, Q)—same mm, different label system.

  6. 5. Double-check

    Measure two or three times on different days. Wide bands (over ~6 mm) often feel tighter—consider a half size up.
