Tennis Bracelet Size Chart, Sizes & How It Should Fit

Model wearing a silver moissanite tennis bracelet

To size a moissanite tennis bracelet, measure your bare wrist just below the wrist bone, then add a quarter to half an inch (0.6 to 1.3cm) for a classic fit, or up to three quarters of an inch (1.9cm) for a relaxed fit. Most women land on 5.9 to 6.7in (15 to 17cm), most men on 7.1 to 7.9in (18 to 20cm).

Every Sensitive Stones tennis bracelet is made in nickel-free, lead-free 925 sterling silver with D color, VVS1 moissanite, reviewed by our product team for true-to-wrist sizing.

How Should a Tennis Bracelet Fit?

You should be able to slide one finger between the band and your wrist.

It should sit close enough to stay in place, yet move freely so it turns and catches the light. If it spins all the way around or slips toward your thumb, it is too big. Between two lengths, the larger drapes easier, the smaller feels more secure.

This chart is for fixed-length tennis bracelets; available lengths vary by style. For the longer lengths, a slightly tighter fit helps prevent sliding, so size down if you are between sizes. Buying a gift or unsure of the wrist? An adjustable bolo, half tennis or stretch style fits without measuring. See each product page for current options.

How to Measure Your Wrist

Getting an accurate wrist measurement takes a minute. Here is what you need.

What you will need

A flexible measuring tape, or a strip of paper, ribbon or string
A ruler, only if you use paper or string

Steps

Wrap the tape around your bare wrist just below the wrist bone, where the bracelet will sit.
Keep it snug against the skin but not tight, so it can still rotate comfortably.
Mark where the tape meets its starting point. That is your wrist circumference.
Match it to the size chart above, or use the Find Your Size tool, to get your length.

If you are buying a gift and cannot measure the wrist, an adjustable bolo, half tennis or stretch style is the safest choice.

Fixed, Adjustable or Stretch: Which Fit Is Easiest?

If you are unsure of the wrist size, an adjustable or stretch style is easiest, because both flex to the wearer with no measuring.

Fixed length, clasp

The classic tennis line, like the white moissanite tennis bracelet, in set lengths from 5.5 to 9.1in (14 to 23cm) by style. The most secure and traditional. Measure first, then size.

Adjustable bolo

A sliding closure pulls to your exact wrist, so one bracelet fits a wide range. The safest choice for a gift.

Stretch, elastic

No clasp. It slips over the hand and settles on the wrist. Choose the length closest to your wrist measurement.

Hinged bangle

A rigid, slip-on take on the tennis look. The clasp opens, so it never passes over the hand. Check your wrist falls in range.

What Stone Size (Width) Should You Choose?

Tennis bracelets are also described by the width of each stone, from a fine 2mm to a bold 6.5mm. Width changes the presence on your wrist, not the fit.

Stone width	How it reads	Best for
2 to 2.5mm	Fine and understated	Everyday wear, layering, a first piece
3mm	Clear, balanced sparkle	The popular all-rounder, day to evening
4mm	Noticeable, classic width	A confident step up, day to evening
5mm	Bold and brilliant	Evening wear, gifts, a statement line
6.5mm	Maximum presence	When you want it seen across a room

Each product page lists the carat weight for every width. For help choosing color, setting and width, see our best moissanite tennis bracelets guide; for a matching necklace or earrings, see the moissanite carat size guide.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should a tennis bracelet fit?

A tennis bracelet should let you slide a finger between the band and your wrist. For a classic fit it sits snug with minimal movement; for a relaxed fit it drapes with a little more room, though never so loose that it slips over your hand. If it spins all the way around or slides toward your thumb, size down.

What size tennis bracelet do I need for a 6 inch wrist?

For a 6in (15.2cm) wrist, choose a 6.3in (16cm) bracelet for a classic fit, which adds about a third of an inch of comfortable ease. For a looser, relaxed drape, size up to 6.7in (17cm). Keep enough room to slide one finger between the band and your wrist.

What is the best tennis bracelet size for a small wrist?

Our fixed-length tennis bracelets begin at 5.5in (14cm) and 5.9in (15cm), so they suit a petite wrist. Measure your wrist, add about a quarter to half an inch of ease, and pick the closest length.

What size tennis bracelet should a man get?

Most men fit a 7.1 to 7.9in (18 to 20cm) tennis bracelet, with fixed lengths running up to 9.1in (23cm) by style. The bracelets are unisex, so measure the bare wrist, add a quarter to half an inch, and round up if between sizes.

How long is a 17cm bracelet in inches?

A 17cm bracelet is 6.7in, since one centimeter equals about 0.3937 inches. For reference, 16cm is 6.3in, 18cm is 7.1in, and 19cm is 7.5in. Our size labels list inches first, then centimeters, so both measurements always appear together.

Does bracelet weight affect sizing?

Yes, the weight of the bracelet can affect how it drapes on your wrist. For larger stones or longer lengths, a slightly tighter fit can help keep the bracelet secure and prevent excessive sliding. Lighter or shorter styles can take a slightly looser fit without feeling restrictive.

Can a moissanite tennis bracelet be resized?

A fixed-length tennis bracelet is sized by choosing the right length rather than resizing later, so measure carefully before ordering. If your wrist size may change or you want flexibility, an adjustable bolo or stretch style flexes to the wearer and needs no resizing at all.
