XXL stands for extra extra large. It is a commercial clothing size that typically corresponds to a 50 to 52-inch chest in men's sizing or a US size 20 in women's sizing. When grading a pattern up to XXL, drafters often must adjust the shoulder slope and armhole shape differently than they do for smaller sizes.
