Class options guide

So you're taking a class and overwhelmed by the options given on the sizing form? No problem, this guide will help you out.

*FYI - I do my best to accommodate your requests based on my inventory. If I am unable to, I will bring an alternative. There will be no refunds in the event your original choice is not available.*

Measurements

  • Measuring your waist

    1. Wrap a sewing measuring tape around your waist so it meets in the front where the pant button sits. Be sure to wrap it where you’d like your belt to sit and on the outside of your belt loops.
    2. Place two fingers between your pants and the measuring tape.
    3. Your waist measurement will be where the measuring tape overlaps.
    4. Now stop sucking in your belly and reward yourself with a treat. Just not too many, we need the belt to fit!


    If you don’t have a sewing measuring tape, simply wrap a string around you following the instructions above and lay it flat on a metal measuring tape to measure how long it is. DO NOT WRAP A METAL MEASURING TAPE.

  • Measuring your dogs neck

    1. Wrap a sewing measuring tape around your dog's neck. Be sure to wrap it where you’d like the dog collar to sit.
    2. Place two fingers between your dog's neck and the measuring tape.
    3. The neck circumfrence will be where the measuring tape meets.
    4. Give your pup a well-deserved treat.

    If you don’t have a sewing measuring tape, simply wrap a string around your dogs neck following the instructions above and lay it flat on a metal measuring tape to measure how long it is. DO NOT WRAP A METAL MEASURING TAPE.

  • Measuring your Birkenstock Arizona sandal size

    This is very important. DAK Leather is not responsible for sizing measured incorrectly and does not guarantee a replacement. Follow these instructions carefully.

    1. Print this Birkenstock Sizing Template. It is very important to print at 100% scaling and to not select shrink or fit to page options when printing. This will give you the wrong size.

    2. Cut where dashed line with scissors icon is on page two.

    3. Align page two on top of page one along the dashed line and tape.

    4. Follow the instructions printed on the template.
