Abstract

The invention relates to methods that correlate individual size-related measurements provided by a consumer to specifications of articles offered by a manufacturer or a business. The correlation enables a consumer to determine whether a specific article is appropriate for a particular consumer'"'"'s size and/ or fit needs. Size-related measurements or article specifications may be stored in a database. Articles include items such as clothing, footwear, outer wear. Individuals may be animals or persons.

Claims

1. A method comprising:

a) determining a pre-selected set of body measurements specific to an individual;

b) determining a pre-selected set of article measurements specific to an article'"'"'s dimensions;

c) comparing the measurement specific to the individual with the measurement specific to the article using a correlating means; and

d) determining whether said article is the correct size and/or for said individual.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the individual is a human.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the individual is an animal.

2. A method comprising:

a) determining a pre-selected set of body measurements specific to an individual;

b) entering said body measurements into a data processing means;

c) processing said body measurements to associate said body measurements with a unique identifier code, wherein said code and associated data are stored;

d) determining a pre-selected set of article measurements specific to an article'"'"'s dimensions;

e) entering said article measurement into a data processing means, wherein said measurements are stored;

f) connecting the data stored in step c) and step e) via a correlating means;

g) entering said unique identifier code into said correlating means, wherein said correlating means compares the measurement specific to the individual with the measurement specific to the article and determines whether said article will fit and/or match the correct measurements of said individual.

3. A database comprising the measurements in claim 2, step e).

4. A database comprising the code and associated data in claim 2, step c).

7. The method of claim 2, wherein the individual is a human.

8. The method of claim 2, wherein the individual is an animal.

9. A method comprising:

a) determining a pre-selected set of body measurements specific to an individual;

b) entering said body measurements into a data processing means;

c) processing said body measurements to associate said body measurements with a unique identifier code, wherein said code and associated data are stored;

d) connecting the data stored in step c) to a machine capable of creating an article via a correlating means, wherein said machine creates an article with measurements specific for said individual.
