Adidas Size Chart
Activewear · women's
Adidas women's apparel uses alpha sizing (XS to XL) with numeric equivalents, where Small covers US 4–6 and Medium covers US 8–10. A women's Medium fits a bust of about 89–94cm, a waist of 73.5–78.5cm, and hips of 98–103cm. Adidas performance and activewear generally runs true to size, particularly tops, though compression and synthetic pieces fit tighter than cotton basics. The main thing to watch is the Originals range: unisex tracksuits, windbreakers and oversized streetwear cuts run large, especially on petite frames, so sizing down is common there. Adidas also has slight differences between its EU and US women's cuts. The brand publishes measurements in inches, so centimetre figures are converted. When shopping Adidas secondhand, distinguish between fitted Performance training gear and relaxed Originals lifestyle pieces, because the same labelled size behaves very differently between those two lines.

Is Adidas sizing the same across all ranges?
