Size Guide
Find your perfect fit
Use the guides below to find the right chain length, bracelet size, or pendant dimensions. All measurements are in centimeters, millimeters, and inches.
Chain & necklace length guide
Chain length determines how your piece sits on your chest. The right length depends on your build, your style, and whether you want to wear it alone or layered.
How to measure
1
Wrap a flexible tape measure or a piece of string around your neck at the length you want.
2
Measure the string against a ruler in centimeters or inches.
3
Compare with the chart below to choose your ideal length.
| Length | cm | Inches | Where it sits | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 40 cm | 40 | 16" | At the base of the neck | Choker style, slim build |
| 45 cm | 45 | 18" | Just below the collarbone | Most popular, versatile |
| 50 cm | 50 | 20" | On the upper chest | Most popular, relaxed fit |
| 55 cm | 55 | 22" | Mid-chest | Layering, athletic build |
| 60 cm | 60 | 24" | Lower chest | Statement wear, pendant chains |
| 70 cm | 70 | 28" | Below chest | Long pendant, oversized look |
Layering tip: For a stacked look, choose chains at least 5 cm apart in length. The most popular Marco Maveri combination is 45 cm with 55 cm, or 50 cm with 60 cm.
Slim or average build
45 to 50 cm hits the sweet spot. A 45 cm chain on a slim frame reads similarly to a 50 cm chain on a broader frame.
Athletic or broader build
Opt for 50 to 60 cm for the same visual effect. Chains shorter than 45 cm can feel tight on a larger neck.
Bracelet size guide
Marco Maveri bracelets are sized by wrist circumference. Measure your wrist and add ease for your preferred fit.
How to measure your wrist
1
Wrap a flexible tape measure around your wrist, just below the wrist bone.
2
Note the measurement in millimeters, centimeters, or inches.
3
Use the calculator below or the table to find your size.

| S | 170 mm | 150, 160 mm / 5.9, 6.3" | 6.7" | 17 cm |
| M | 180 mm | 160, 170 mm / 6.3, 6.7" | 7.1" | 18 cm |
| L | 190 mm | 170, 180 mm / 6.7, 7.1" | 7.5" | 19 cm |
| XL | 200 mm | 180, 195 mm / 7.1, 7.7" | 7.9" | 20 cm |
| XXL | 215 mm | 195 mm and above / 7.7"+ | 8.5" | 21.5 cm |
Most common sizes: M (180mm) and L (190mm) fit the majority of men. If you're unsure, go with L for a comfortable everyday fit.
Pendant size guide
Pendant size refers to the dimensions of the piece itself. The right size depends on your chain thickness, your build, and how prominently you want it to sit.
| Size category | Width | Height | Chain recommendation | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Small | 10, 20 mm | 10, 25 mm | 1.5 to 2.5 mm chain | Subtle, everyday wear |
| Medium | 20, 35 mm | 25, 40 mm | 2.5 to 4 mm chain | Most popular, versatile |
| Large | 35, 55 mm | 40, 60 mm | 4 to 6 mm chain | Statement look, bold styling |
| Oversized | 55 mm+ | 60 mm+ | 6 mm+ chain | Streetwear, fashion-forward |
Pendant and chain balance: A heavier pendant needs a thicker chain to sit properly. As a rule, the pendant bail (the loop) should be slightly wider than the chain links. If the bail is too narrow, the chain won't move freely.
Chain length for pendants
Pendants look best on longer chains — 50 to 60 cm is the most common pairing. This lets the pendant sit on the upper to mid-chest where it's visible and moves naturally.
How to attach a pendant
Open the bail gently, slide it onto the chain, and close it back. Don't force the bail open too wide — this can weaken it over time.
