Start here
A tape measure gives you the answer in about a minute, and it is the difference between wearing the jersey and returning it. Measure over a single thin layer — a t-shirt, never a jacket — standing normally with your arms hanging down. A soft tailor's tape is easiest; if you do not have one, loop a piece of string around the spot, pinch the point where it meets, then lay the string flat against a ruler.
Run the tape around the fullest part of your chest, right under the armpits. Keep it level all the way round and breathe out normally — do not pull your shoulders back to chase a smaller number.
Find the narrowest point of your torso, usually a finger or two above the navel, and measure there. Keep the tape snug but not cinched.
Stand with your feet together and measure around the fullest part of your seat. This is the number that decides your size in anything below the waist.
Start at the highest point of the shoulder, beside the collar, and drop the tape straight down to wherever you want the hem to finish. Compare it with the body-length column before you commit.
For long-sleeve jerseys, jackets and hoodies: measure from the shoulder seam down to your wrist with the arm slightly bent. Outerwear uses a different method — see the jackets section below.
Measure from the crotch straight down the inside of the leg to the ankle bone. This sets the length, not the width.
Before the charts
Sizing goes wrong when people compare the wrong measurement — a waist against a chest, or a garment width against a body number. The table below is the short version: match the garment you are buying to the body measurement that decides it, then go to that chart.
Body measurement by garment type — start with the first column, confirm with the second.
| Garment | Decide by | Second check |
|---|---|---|
| Jerseys — all six leagues | Chest | Body length |
| Shorts | Waist | Hip |
| Pants & joggers | Waist | Inseam |
| Jackets & hoodies | Chest | Sleeve |
| Youth & toddler | Age band | Height |
| A full kit — jersey plus shorts | Chest for the top, waist for the bottom | Size the two pieces separately |

Know your cut
The label on the collar is only half the story — the same letter means something different in each sport. A soccer medium hugs the body, a hockey medium hangs off the shoulders. Read the row for your league before you pick a number:
How each league cuts its jersey — read this before you pick a number.
| League | Cut | What it feels like |
|---|---|---|
| Soccer | Athletic / slim | Close to the body; size up for a looser look |
| NBA | Standard / slightly long | Relaxed through the chest, longer hem |
| NFL | Roomy / boxy | Classic oversized game-day look |
| MLB | Full / button-front | Relaxed traditional baseball cut |
| NHL | Very loose | The loosest cut of all leagues — order your true size, no need to size up |
Every fan-version and replica jersey we carry keeps the silhouette that league is known for, so the size you already wear in that sport is the size to order here. College kit is cut to the sport it is made for rather than to a separate NCAA scale — a college football shirt follows the football row above, a college basketball shirt follows the basketball one.
One number, six answers
If you know your chest measurement, this is the fastest way through the page: find your row on the left, then read across to the league you are shopping.
Find your row by chest measurement, then read straight across to your league.

| 55"+ | 140+ | 4XL | 3XL | 3XL | 3XL | 3XL |
The chest figures are your body measurements, not the width of a flat-laid garment — that is why they read smaller than the number you would get by measuring a jersey on a table. Between two rows? Take the larger size.
Once you have your letter, go straight to the shirts:
American football
NFL shirts are built the way they look on the sideline — generous through the chest and straight down the body, with room to pull over a t-shirt or a hoodie. If that layered, oversized look is what you are after, order your true size and let the cut do the work.
Men's NFL — the full, boxy cut, made to wear over a tee.
| Size | Chest — in | Chest — cm | Waist — in | Body length — in | Body length — cm | Sleeve — in |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| S | 35–38 | 89–97 | 29–32 | 29 | 74 | 17.5 |
| M | 38–41 | 97–104 | 32–35 | 30 | 76 | 18.5 |
| L | 41–44 | 104–112 | 35–38 | 31 | 79 | 19.5 |
| XL | 44–48 | 112–122 | 38–43 | 32 | 81 | 20.5 |
| 2XL | 48–53 | 122–135 | 43–48 | 33 | 84 | 21.5 |
| 3XL | 53–58 | 135–147 | 48–53 | 34 | 86 | 22.5 |
| 4XL | 58–63 | 147–160 | 53–58 | 35 | 89 | 23.5 |
Women's NFL — tapered through the waist, shorter in the body.
| Size | Chest — in | Chest — cm | Waist — in | Body length — in | Body length — cm |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 31–33 | 79–84 | 25–26 | 26 | 66 |
| S | 33–35 | 84–89 | 26–28 | 27 | 69 |
| M | 35–38 | 89–97 | 28–31 | 27.5 | 70 |
| L | 38–41 | 97–104 | 31–34 | 28 | 71 |
| XL | 41–44 | 104–112 | 34–37 | 28.5 | 72 |
| 2XL | 44–47 | 112–119 | 37–40 | 29 | 74 |
The women's version follows the body more closely through the waist and finishes higher on the hip. If you would rather have the loose, boxy silhouette, take a men's small or medium instead of sizing up in the women's chart.
Youth NFL — sized by age band, chest and height together.
| Size | Age | Chest — in | Chest — cm | Height — in | Height — cm |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 5–6 | 24–25 | 61–64 | 44–48 | 112–122 |
| S | 7–8 | 26–27 | 66–69 | 50–54 | 127–137 |
| M | 9–12 | 28–30 | 71–76 | 55–60 | 140–152 |
| L | 13–15 | 31–33 | 79–84 | 61–63 | 155–160 |
| XL | 16–18 | 34–36 | 86–91 | 64–67 | 163–170 |
Youth XL covers most teenagers up to around 5'6" (168 cm). Past that height a men's small gives you the extra body and sleeve length a youth XL cannot.
Broad through the chest already, or planning to wear it over a hoodie? Order one size up from your row. Otherwise your true size is the right call.
Basketball
Sleeveless by design, with a hem that sits lower than most football shirts and a shoulder line that stays close to standard. Nothing to size around — match your chest and you are done.
Men's NBA — standard through the chest, hem sits lower than a soccer jersey.
| Size | Chest — in | Chest — cm | Body length — in | Body length — cm | Shoulder — in |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| S | 37–39 | 94–99 | 28.5 | 72 | 17 |
| M | 39–41 | 99–104 | 29.5 | 75 | 18 |
| L | 41–43 | 104–109 | 30.5 | 77 | 19 |
| XL | 43–46 | 109–117 | 31.5 | 80 | 20 |
| 2XL | 46–49 | 117–124 | 32.5 | 83 | 21 |
| 3XL | 49–52 | 124–132 | 33.5 | 85 | 22 |
Women's NBA — sleeveless, contoured, with a shorter hem.
| Size | Chest — in | Chest — cm | Body length — in | Body length — cm |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| S | 33–35 | 84–89 | 26.5 | 67 |
| M | 35–37 | 89–94 | 27 | 69 |
| L | 37–40 | 94–102 | 27.5 | 70 |
| XL | 40–43 | 102–109 | 28 | 71 |
| 2XL | 43–46 | 109–117 | 28.5 | 72 |
There is no separate youth basketball chart — youth NBA shirts use the same age-and-height scale as every other youth jersey on this page. Jump to the kids’ charts.
Baseball
The classic buttoned front, cut full through the chest and body with the hem landing at the hip. It hangs straighter than a soccer shirt and does not taper at the waist — think of it as a jersey you can wear unbuttoned.
Men's MLB — button-front, relaxed through the body, hem at the hip.
| Size | Chest — in | Chest — cm | Body length — in | Body length — cm | Sleeve — in |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| S | 36–38 | 91–97 | 28 | 71 | 17.5 |
| M | 38–41 | 97–104 | 29 | 74 | 18.5 |
| L | 41–44 | 104–112 | 30 | 76 | 19.5 |
| XL | 44–48 | 112–122 | 31 | 79 | 20.5 |
| 2XL | 48–52 | 122–132 | 32 | 81 | 21.5 |
| 3XL | 52–56 | 132–142 | 33 | 84 | 22.5 |
Women's MLB — the same button-front cut with a shaped waist.
| Size | Chest — in | Chest — cm | Body length — in | Body length — cm |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| S | 33–35 | 84–89 | 26.5 | 67 |
| M | 35–37 | 89–94 | 27 | 69 |
| L | 37–40 | 94–102 | 27.5 | 70 |
| XL | 40–43 | 102–109 | 28 | 71 |
| 2XL | 43–46 | 109–117 | 28.5 | 72 |
Ice hockey
Hockey shirts are cut wide through the chest and body with noticeably longer sleeves, built to go over padding — which is why they feel enormous next to a soccer shirt of the same label.
Men's NHL — the roomiest cut we carry, with extra-long sleeves.
| Size | Chest — in | Chest — cm | Body length — in | Body length — cm | Sleeve — in |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| S | 40–43 | 102–109 | 30 | 76 | 24 |
| M | 43–46 | 109–117 | 31 | 79 | 25 |
| L | 46–49 | 117–124 | 32 | 81 | 26 |
| XL | 49–52 | 124–132 | 33 | 84 | 27 |
| 2XL | 52–55 | 132–140 | 34 | 86 | 28 |
| 3XL | 55–58 | 140–147 | 35 | 89 | 29 |
Expect the hockey cut to run one to two labels roomier than soccer or basketball. A 40-inch chest is a small here and a large in a soccer shirt — same body, two very different letters. Order your true chest size unless you actively want the oversized look.
Association football
The closest cut we stock, shaped to sit against the body the way match kit does. If you like your shirts loose, or you plan to wear something underneath, go one size up from your chart row rather than hoping it stretches.
Men's soccer — the closest cut of the six leagues; step up one if you like room.
| Size | Chest — in | Chest — cm | Body length — in | Body length — cm | US | EU |

| 2XL | 44–48 | 112–122 | 37–41 | 28 | 71 | 20–22 |
Youth soccer shirts use the shared youth scale further down the page. A youth XL hands over to a men’s small with almost no gap in between — see the kids’ charts.
For growing fans
Youth sizing is unisex and shared across all six leagues, so the same letter works whether the shirt is a football, basketball, baseball, hockey or soccer one. On the product pages these sizes appear as Youth XS–XL (listed as YthXS, YthS, YthM, YthL and YthXL), and toddler jerseys run 2T–4T. Right now youth and toddler sizes are stocked on our college teams — the pro-league shirts on this page carry the same letter scale, but the youth and toddler racks are NCAA territory. One habit worth keeping: when a child is near the top of an age band, take the next size up — they grow out of a jersey long before they wear one out.
Youth, ages 5 to 18 — one unisex scale across all six leagues, stocked Youth XS–XL.
| Size | Age | Chest — in | Chest — cm | Height — in | Height — cm | Weight — lb |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 5–6 | 24–25 | 61–64 | 44–48 | 112–122 | 40–50 |

| XL | 16–18 | 34–36 | 86–91 | 64–67 | 163–170 | 125–145 |
Toddler, ages 2 to 4 — stocked on selected teams only.

| 4T | 4 | 39–41 | 99–104 | 23 | 58 | 35–39 |
Toddler sizes are stocked on selected teams only. Between 2T and 3T, take the 3T — the sleeves roll up, but the body cannot be stretched.
Shopping from outside the US
Our letters are US sizing. If you buy in European, UK, Italian, French, Japanese or Chinese sizes, convert to our letter first and then read the league chart for that letter — converting is only the first step.

Treat this table as a guide rather than a guarantee — national systems vary by a size here and there, and two brands rarely agree in every row. If you own a tape measure, ignore the conversion completely and order straight from the chest column of your league chart.
Men's bottoms — waist-driven conversion; Japan is listed in waist centimetres.

The Japan column lists waist in centimetres, because Japanese bottoms are labelled that way. Everything else is a clothing letter.
