e commerce - What is the best way to select the apparel size?


I'm redesigning my filters and product page of an online apparel store. Do you think I should display all sizes and use radio button or using a drop down menu to select the size ?



Answer



Use drop down if you have more than 5-6 sizes, to reduce clutter.


If you have up 5 options then radio button's present complete visibility, some good examples of best practice attached:

This product only has 3 sizes, so radio buttons or visibly selectable fields are the best options here.

But with an item such as shirts, with a number of neck size options a dropdown logically makes more sense. A good pieces from NNGroup explaining the benefits and pitfalls of dropdowns.
