Retailers are slowly but surely embracing new online tools to help consumers make smarter fit decisions. The current study investigates the influence that online sizing technology, True Fit®, has on consumer confidence while making sizing decisions online and eventual intention to use True Fit®. The study uses an adapted Technology Acceptance Model and includes the following variables: perceived ease of use of using True Fit®, perceived usefulness of using True Fit®; convenience of using True Fit®, and intention to use True Fit®. Data were collected via an online survey (n = 577). Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, factor analysis and Structural Equation Modelling, all the hypotheses were supported.
