Does Mango Run Small? (Read Before You Buy!)

Mango clothing tends to run a bit small. Therefore, in most product categories, you are going to need to size up.

Mango has slowly been gaining prominence as a fast-fashion store of repute. It primarily caters to a young audience and provides people with designer-level clothing at dirt cheap prices.

In this article, I am going to go over the various sizing issues at Mango, and how you can find out the perfect size for your body type.

How does Mango Clothing Fit?

Mango clothing is very comparable to Zara in terms of fit. While jackets and coats run small, most dresses are true to size at Mango.

And when I say that its sizing is comparable to Zara, I don’t mean it as a compliment.

The brand really needs to work in order to make its sizing more accurate. The outerwear category, in particular, is really bad in terms of sizing (not quality).

Add to that the fact that you are probably going to be layering under their jackets and coats, and it’s all the more reason to size up.

The women’s section, in comparison, is a bit better. Their skirts and dresses fit almost true to size, which is great.

So, what size should you go for?

Here’s what I recommend. Take a look at the official size chart on Mango’s website, and compare your body measurements with it. To get the perfect fit, simply opt for a size larger than what the chart recommends.

Using this rule of thumb, you will be able to avoid the hassle of returning a product.

One more thing 👉 Sometimes the Mango website shows discounts on products only after going through the clearance section and not if you directly go to the product page. Thus, make sure that you always check for your product in the sale section on the Mango website.

What size should you buy?

When shopping for clothing at Mango, it’s crucial to find the perfect fit. Each brand has its own unique sizing standards, so using their size chart is the best way to ensure you choose the right size for you.

In addition to the size chart, be sure to check out product descriptions for any specific sizing information, and read customer reviews to see how the clothing fits others. If you’re still unsure about the right size, don’t hesitate to reach out to their customer service team for assistance.

Remember, every body is different and what’s most important is to feel confident and comfortable in your clothes. Don’t get discouraged if you need to buy a size that’s different than what you’re used to. The goal is to feel great in what you’re wearing.

Which Mango Items Run Small?

Mango Clothing	Sizing
Jackets and Coats	Run small.
Jeans	Run small.
Tops and Shirts	Half a size small.
Dresses	True to size.

Jackets and Coats

Mango’s jackets and coats run one size small. Sizing up also becomes necessary when you consider other external factors such as layering.

While the brand makes excellent-looking jackets, their sizing keeps being a letdown. Instead of just buying your regular size, you are going to need to go one size up in order to get the perfect fit.

This becomes even more important if, like most other people, you plan to layer under your jackets and coats because, at your original size, there is barely going to be space for a thin sweater.

Jeans

Mango’s jeans run one size small. Therefore size up in order to get the best fit possible.

Like I mentioned earlier, the sizing at Mango is pretty comparable with Zara. And just like Zara, this brand also struggles with nailing the fit and the measurements of its jeans.

However, the premium quality of the fabric makes sizing up completely worth it.

Tops and Shirts

Tops and shirts at Mango run about half a size small. So size up if you want a baggier or a roomier fit, but it’s not really necessary.

There is an extremely big collection of tops and shirts available at Mango, both in the men’s as well as women’s section, but most of them run just small.

I, for one, prefer a more slim fit and thus refuse to size up. You do you.

Dresses

The dresses and skirts at Mango fit true to size. There is no need to size up or size down.

While dresses are something that Mango may not necessarily be known for, their fabric quality is miles ahead of other fast fashion outlets.

Luckily, the dresses fit relatively well and come with no major sizing issues. Add to that the fact that most of them are very affordable, and you have a recipe for success.

Does Mango Make Plus-Size Clothing?

Yes, Mango does offer plus sizes. Their women’s clothing tends to go up to 4XL in most product categories. The plus-size collection fits true to size.

Until a couple of years ago, Mango used to run a separate plus-size storefront called Violeta by Mango.

But in 2019, they decided to merge Violeta with the existing Mango clothing line in order to provide plus sizes on a wider collection of products.

They have been constantly upping their game, and are one of the biggest plus-size clothing providers in the US market now.
