Franco chain width: 6 mm, 9 mm or 13 mm?
On a Franco chain, width changes everything. The same square, four-sided link looks discreet at 6 mm and unmistakable at 13 mm. This page is about one decision: which width is right for you. If you are new to the style, start with our page on what a Franco chain is.
Our Franco Link Chain Necklace is made of 316L stainless steel, in silver-tone polished steel, gold-tone plating or black plating. It comes in three widths and four lengths.
The three widths, side by side
| Width | Look | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 6 mm | Solid but easy to wear | Every day, under or over a shirt, with a watch |
| 9 mm | Clearly visible across a room | Worn alone over a t-shirt or hoodie |
| 13 mm | Bold statement piece | The single focal point of an outfit |
Because the Franco is a square chain, it looks a little heavier than a flat chain of the same width. A 6 mm Franco has more presence than a flat 6 mm chain, which is why 6 mm is enough for most men.
Matching width to your build
- Slim neck or frame: 6 mm keeps the proportion right. 9 mm can work if you want the chain to be the point of the outfit.
- Average build: 6 mm for daily wear, 9 mm for a stronger look.
- Broad neck and shoulders: 9 or 13 mm. A wide chain on a wide frame looks balanced rather than oversized.
Width and length go together
The wider the chain, the longer it can go. A 6 mm Franco looks right from 22" upward. At 13 mm, 26" to 30" gives the chain room to drape instead of sitting tight at the base of the neck. For a full length breakdown, see Franco necklace lengths.

Franco width FAQ
What width Franco chain should a man get?
6 mm is our everyday pick. Choose 9 or 13 mm only if you want the chain to be seen first.
Is a 13 mm Franco chain heavy?
It is a substantial chain and you will feel it on your neck. That weight is part of the look. If you want something you forget you are wearing, take 6 mm.
Can I return it if the width looks too big?
Yes. You have 30 days to return it, and every chain carries a 1-year warranty against defects.
Is every width available in gold-tone?
Yes. In gold-tone, all three widths come in 22", 26", 28" and 30".
