Yves Salomon Size Guide for Men: FR Sizes, Fit and Lengths

Yves Salomon men’s sizes use French numbers: FR 44 is XS, 46 is S, 48 is M, 50 is L, 52 is XL and 54 is XXL, which matches a UK and US chest of 34 to 44 inches, and the brand says its men’s pieces run true to size. Coveti also lists FR 56 as XXXL and FR 58 as 4XL on the Yves Salomon brand page and in men’s jackets. For the story behind the collection, start with our Yves Salomon menswear guide.

Yves Salomon men’s size chart

Find your chest measurement in inches, then read across to the French size you order. The FR number is what appears on the label and in the size selector on each product page.

Not every style comes in every size. Most of the current jackets and coats run from S to 4XL, the Reversible Long-Haired Mink and Technical Fabric Parka starts at XS, and a few knit and tailoring pieces stop at XL. The live size list on each product page is the one to trust.

Do Yves Salomon men’s jackets run true to size?

The brand says they do, so start with your usual size. As a guide, the campaign models stand between 183 and 189 cm and wear FR 48. If you are around that height with a 38 inch chest, a medium is the natural choice; if you are shorter, a medium will simply sit a little longer on you.

Between sizes, the deciding question is what goes underneath. A trim tailored jacket such as the Double-Sided Wool and Cashmere Blazer is designed to sit close over a shirt and fine knit, while a parka is cut to take a thick sweater.

How long are Yves Salomon men’s coats and jackets?

Length changes the whole proportion of a piece, so it is worth checking alongside size. These are the lengths stated for current men’s pieces on Coveti.

The last column is an approximate guide for a man of around 185 cm, the middle of the model range. Shorter men should expect each length to fall lower on the leg.

How should you size for layering?

Outerwear from a furrier is built with a lot of material on the inside, so the internal room is already less than the outer shape suggests. Three practical rules help.

First, shearling has its wool inside, which takes up space. If you plan to wear a chunky knit like the Wool and Cashmere High-Neck Zip Sweater under a shearling jacket, try your true size with that knit before deciding to size up.

Second, reversible mink pieces have no separate lining, so they feel slimmer through the body than a lined parka. Take your usual size and layer finely underneath.

Third, parkas with removable linings, such as the Iconic parkas with sheared rabbit inside, give you two fits in one: closer with the lining in, roomier with it out. Size for the lining in.

What size are Yves Salomon men’s hats?

Men’s hats are sold in one size. The Toscana Lambskin Shearling Fur-Effect Trapper Hat is a classic chapka shape, the Chunky Cashmere Marl Beanie has a cuff you can fold up for a neater fit, and the Loro Piana Storm System Flannel Baseball Cap completes the range in men’s hats.

Our picks

1. Reversible Long-Haired Mink and Technical Fabric Jacket

A 71 cm length that suits most heights, and an unlined reversible build that rewards your true size.

2. Curly Wool Suede Lambskin Shearling Jacket

Sits just below the hip at 72 cm and is cut to go over a shirt and knit without sizing up.

3. Iconic Technical Cotton Parka with Fox and Rabbit Fur

The removable rabbit lining gives two fits from one size, which makes it the easiest parka to get right.

4. Double-Sided Wool and Cashmere Blazer

A cupro lining slips over knitwear, so a true-size blazer still works in deep winter.

5. Toscana Lambskin Shearling Fur-Effect Trapper Hat

One size, no guesswork, and the warmest finishing piece in the men’s range.
