Description
Body tape measure
Measure your own waist, hips, bust or arms with one hand
A loose tailor's tape wants two hands and a helper. This one holds its own loop. The tape pulls out of a flat plastic case that sits in your palm, and the short peg on the free end drops into a socket on the case's shoulder. That closes the tape into a ring that keeps its shape around a waist, a thigh or an upper arm while you draw it snug, look down and read the number.
When you are done, one press of the round button on the front winds the tape back in. Nothing to roll up and nothing to lose.
Pull, hook, read, press
Pull and hook
Draw out the length you need, bring the tape around, and press the peg on the end into the socket hole on the shoulder of the case.
Snug and read
Pull the free end until the ring sits level and firm against the skin. Read the number where the tape meets the case.
Press to rewind
Press the round button on the front of the case and the tape winds itself back inside.
Seat the peg gently in the socket and let the button rewind the tape for you. The peg is what makes solo measuring work, and it lasts longest with a light touch.

Both scales, on the two faces of one tape
The tape is printed on both sides. Turn it over instead of converting.
The number at the case is your measurement. The printed scale already allows for the section of the case that forms part of the ring, so there is nothing to add or subtract.
One tape for fitness, sewing and tailoring
- Track your progress. Waist, hips, thighs and upper arms in a minute, with a ring that returns to the same snug tension every time. As one buyer put it, “I am trying to lose some weight and bought this item to track my progress. It works and is easy to use.”
- Sew and tailor. Bust, waist and hip measurements for a pattern or a fitting, taken on yourself or a client.
- Order clothes that fit. Take your own size before you buy: “I got this so I could measure my size for clothing and shoe purchases, it’s a must have.”
- Give it as a gift. A buyer called it “a unique gift” for anyone who sews or keeps a fitness log.
Measure the same way and the numbers tell you something
The same tape, taken the same way at the same time of day, shows your change over weeks more clearly than any single reading.
- Measure over bare skin or one thin layer for a true reading at the waist or chest.
- Keep the ring level all the way round. A mirror helps you check the back, and you still only need one hand.
- Breathe out normally when you take a waist or chest measurement.
- Snug and comfortable: firm enough to hold its place, loose enough to leave the skin smooth.
- Write down where you measured (narrowest part of the waist, widest part of the hips, mid-point of the upper arm) and use the same landmark next time.
In the box
- One retractable body tape measure, in black or off-white. Ready to use the moment it leaves the box, with nothing to charge or assemble.
The off-white case is a soft off-white, close to the photographs.
