Sizing, Product, & Care FAQ
Ripley Rader – Fit & Care FAQ
What size am I?
You’ll find our size chart just under the product title — it includes garment and body measurements. We also have a quick guide to help you measure so you can feel confident about the fit.
What if I’m in between sizes?
For example, If you’re between a US 6–8:
If most of your closet is a 4/6 → go with RR 2 (S)
If you usually wear an 8/10 → choose RR 3 (M)
Think of it as leaning toward the size you feel most comfortable in.
Do you offer petite lengths?
Not specifically — but our Cropped length is designed with the same wide-leg silhouette, just with a shorter inseam. It’s a beautiful option for a more petite fit.
Do you have a tall option?
Yes, try our Long version of the Perfect Pant! Not long enough? Each pair has a 1.5” hem that can be let out by a tailor. Our ponte knit also drapes longer on the body, so you may find they wear longer than expected.
Will hemming change the shape?
Not at all. Because the flare begins at the hip, hemming only adjusts the length — the sleek wide-leg silhouette stays the same.
Classic too long, Cropped too short — what should I do?
Go with Standard, it falls perfectly between our Cropped and Long lengths. Otherwise, you can always have your pants hemmed to your perfect length. Ripley suggests finishing them ¼” off the floor with your favorite shoes — it’s the most polished look.
Do your pants have an elastic waistband or zipper?
No elastic — our ponte knit has excellent memory and holds its shape beautifully. In plus sizes, we’ve added a discreet invisible side zipper for ease.
What undergarments work best?
We recommend seamless underwear so the line stays smooth under our ponte fabric.
How do I care for my RR pieces?
To keep your pieces looking their best:
Preferred: Professional dry clean with low heat pressing only. Excessive heat may cause shrinkage.
At-Home Option: Hand wash cold, lay flat to dry. Do not hang, as hanging may stretch the knit. Do not tumble dry, as heat causes shrinkage.
Your pieces are designed to last — a little extra care goes a long way.
Where are Ripley Rader clothes made?
In Los Angeles. Every Ripley Rader piece is designed and made locally in LA.
What is your ponte knit made of?
Our ponte knit is 68% viscose, 27% nylon and 5% stretch. It has the structured look of wool, holds its shape and doesn't wrinkle.
Do you offer free shipping?
Yes. U.S. orders over $140 ship free.
How long does shipping take?
Most orders ship within a few days, and you'll get a tracking email as soon as yours ships. During high demand, some pieces can take up to 3 weeks to fulfill. Expedited shipping isn't offered at checkout, so email info@ripleyrader.com before you order if you need it by a certain date.
