How to Measure Your Wrist in One Minute

Wrap a soft tape or non-stretch string snugly around the narrowest part of your wrist. Do not compress the skin or add extra room. The result is your snug wrist measurement.

How to Measure Your Wrist in One Minute

Method 1: Use a soft measuring tape

  1. Rest the hand that will wear the bracelet naturally with the palm facing up.
  2. Wrap the tape around the narrowest part of the wrist, usually just below the wrist bone.
  3. Keep the tape flat and snug without compressing the skin or leaving a gap.
  4. Read the number where the tape overlaps. This is your snug wrist measurement.

Method 2: Use string and a ruler

  1. Use a non-stretch cotton string, ribbon, or narrow strip of paper.
  2. Wrap it snugly around the narrowest part of the wrist.
  3. Mark the exact overlap point without pulling tighter or loosening it.
  4. Lay it flat and measure from the starting edge to the mark with a ruler.

Tips

  • Measure the wrist where you will actually wear the bracelet; left and right wrists can differ.
  • Measure in a normal resting state, not immediately after exercise, a hot shower, or noticeable swelling.
  • Measure twice. If the results differ, check that the tape is flat and not twisted.
  • For an Avara Lan custom piece, provide the snug measurement without adding length and choose your preferred fit.
