7、(edition 1). Preface This part of the specification has been prepared under the direction of the SABS Clothing Committee. It is, in technical content, identical to ISO 4417. The specification is one of a series which deals essentially with the size designation of clothes, and is not directly concern
8、ed with sizing systems as such. The primary aim of this specification is, as in the other specifications in the series, to establish a size designation system that is based on body measurements, and that in this case indicates (in a simple, direct, and meaningful manner) the size of the head of the
9、person that an item of headwear is intended to fit. Provided that the size of the persons head (as indicated by the appropriate dimensions) has been accurately determined, this system will facilitate the choice of headwear that fits. Choice of headwear measurements is normally left to the designer a
10、nd the manufacturers, who are concerned with the style, cut, and other fashion elements.

11、 2 This page is intentionally left blank SANS 1360-5:2008 Edition 1.2 3 Size designation of clothes Part 5: Headwear 1 Scope 1.1 This part of the specification establishes a system of designating the sizes of headwear. Both the control dimension on which the size designation system is based, and the
12、 method of indicating the size designation on headwear item labels, are specified. NOTE The standards referred to in this part of the specification are listed in appendix A. 2 Definitions 2.1 For the purposes of this part of the specification the relevant definitions given in SANS 10184 and the foll
13、owing definition shall apply: standard pictogram a pictogram symbol used to indicate the position on the body of the relevant control dimensions (see figure 1) 3 Control dimension 3.1 The control dimensions for headwear shall be head girth. 4 Size designation 4.1 General The size designation shall c
14、omprise the control dimension (i.e. head girth), in centimetres, of the intended wearer. Where practicable, the standard pictogram shall be used as a means of indicating the size designation. Where it is not practicable to use the standard pictogram, the numerical value of the control dimension shal
15、l be given together with the descriptive words “head girth“. NOTE The above requirements shall not preclude the use of a size designation shown as a range by stating the minimum and maximum control dimensions separated by an oblique stroke or hyphen. SANS 1360-5:2008 Edition 1.2 4 4.2 Use of standar
16、d pictogram 4.2.1 The minimum size of the pictogram is not specified but it shall be large enough to convey immediate understanding, and to allow the use of readily legible numerals. NOTE The recommended type for use on pictograms is UNIVERS No. U-59. 4.2.2 The girth measurement(s) shall be shown on
17、 the left-hand side of the pictogram. 4.3 Headwear measurements Headwear measurements shall not be incorporated in the size designation but, where considered of value, they may be indicated separately (see 5.3). 5 Labelling 5.1 Method The size designation of each item of headwear shall be indicated
18、clearly, conspicuously, and in plainly legible form on a label, or on a swing ticket, or on both. Numerals shall, in all cases, be readily discernible. 5.2 Attachment The label or swing ticket shall be securely attached to the headwear in a position where it is easily readable. 5.3 Additional inform
19、ation Information additional to the size designation may be separately indicated on the label, or on the swing ticket, or on both, provided that it does not in any way reduce the prominence and conspicuousness of the size designation. Such additional information may include a size code number or hea
20、dwear measurement considered to constitute useful information. 5.4 Examples of labels The examples of labels given in figure 2 illustrate methods of labelling that range from the simple indication on the standard pictogram to more elaborate forms that provide additional information, such as a size c
21、ode number. Where the size designation is supplemented by a size code number, separation of the two, as illustrated, renders the size code number readily recognizable as being part of a system of a size designation adopted for a limited population group only.
