To properly determine your Hakama size, measure between the top hip bone and the ankle bone in standing position. This length is approximately equivalent to the length between the bottom of the rear obi and the rear hem.

How to take measurement for the right Hakama Length?
What is usually referred as to "Hakama Length" is the length of the Hakama "legs", without the Obi.
Depending on gender, wearing habits, the fitting Hakama length may vary from person to person.
To properly measure for a Hakama, please measure from where the Obi would sit (usually, the top hip bone), to your anklebone.
This length will be the best matching Hakama length.
Compare then to "Hakama Length" in our products size chart.
As
a help, you can tie a belt at the level you would wear the Hakama, and
then measure from BELOW that belt, down to you anklebone.
Usually, men wear Hakama tied around the hip bone, women use to tie it around the waist.
