Measure where the garment sits — low on the hips, below your natural waist. That's the number that matters.
G-string / thong
Garment measured flat, unstretched. Fabric stretches up to an extra 20cm, so don't size off the flat measurement alone.

Between sizes? Size down for a tighter, firmer fit — size up for a relaxed fit.
Big Boy Pouch adds ~5cm extra pouch space — same size chart applies.
Rip String (thong swimwear)
Full flat measurement, ±1cm tolerance for stretch. Cut higher than the Reef Briefs, so the two won't feel the same at the same size label.

Razor Briefs (underwear)
Runs smaller and tighter than the Thong for a firmer, more secure fit — if you're between sizes here, sizing up is usually the safer call.
