custom fitting
Made to measure
Custom fitting is the process of tailoring equipment, clothing, or other items to an individual's specific measurements or needs.
The term appears most often in contexts where standard sizes won't do: a custom fitting for golf clubs, a custom fitting for a wedding dress.
The goal is optimal fit and performance for that particular person.
