ASTM D6860-03

Proposed Standard Tables of Body Measurements for Boys, Sizes 6 to 24 Husky

SCOPE
1.1 These tables list body measurements of boys, sizes 6 to 24 Husky. Although these are body measurements, they can be used as a baseline in designing apparel for boys and students in this size range when considering such factors as fabric type, ease for body movement, styling, and fit.
1.2 The husky body has a heavier build and higher body weight than other boys size ranges.
1.3 The values stated in either acceptable SI units or inch-pound units shall be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other, without combining values in any way.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

retail organizations. The measurements were derived originally from the 1970 Voluntary Product
