Let us know your measurements and you too can have your own custom Nihang Chola tailor made. From date of order, your chola should be delivered to your door in around 8-10 weeks. Please note all clothing is hand made so sizes may vary slightly. The photo on this page is for illustration purposes to give you an idea as to the design of a Nihang Chola.
If you are also ordering other items from us and your order contains a chola, please be aware that your entire order will be put on hold and everything sent together. Should you require other the items to be delivered earlier, please place a separate order for these.
The measurements we need are as follows:
Collar Size
Measure around the base of your neck where a shirt collar would sit making sure not to pull the tape measure tight. This will ensure your collar is a comfortable fit.
Shoulder Width
Measure your shoulder width from the outside edge of the left shoulder (basically where the sleeve of your shirt starts), to the outside edge of the right shoulder.
Chest Size
Measure around the broadest part of your chest, making sure that the tape is just below the armpit and above your shoulder blades. Keep the tape flat and parallel to the ground.
Arm Length
Relax your arms down by your side. Measure from the tip of your shoulder and down your arm to your preferred length. The standard sleeve length is about an inch past the wrist bone.
Chola Length
Measure from your shoulder down to where you want your chola to go to. This is normally below the knee.
Outside Leg
Measure from your waist at the point where you want to wear the top of the pajama/pajamee. Run the tape measure down to the point where you want the bottom of the pajama/pajamee leg to end.
Above Ankle
Measure just above your ankle all the way around.
Crotch
Measure from the top of the trouser waistband at the front, between your legs, to top of the waistband at the back. Allow as much space as needed for comfort.
