    Hey guys,

    I'm assuming that some of you own NFL jerseys, either authentic or replicas. How does the sizing rate to regular clothes? I'm assuming they run large.

    I can wear an XL shirt, but I generally wear XXL because I like the looser fit. I'm also 6'2. Do you think that XL is the right size jersey for me? I'm thinking XXL would hang down to my knees.

    What do you mean? Don't you tuck your's in? :/

    They do run larger. I once got an XXL Barry Sanders jersey & I honestly think if I ever go homeless I could live in that thing for at least a week. [​IMG]

    they are bigger and an XL will equate closely to a regular 2x....but, with a jersey, you can get away with wearing it much bigger than any other shirt, so when in doubt, go larger....

    I'm about 6'1" and large fits pretty good for me and I don't tuck mine in.

    Here we go again. [​IMG] New England didn't invent the rule but they did refine it enough to change the course of history. :crying:

    I only buy XL when I want to wear it to a game in December. Then it's got to fit over 4 sweaters and a parka. LOL

    I got your tuck rule right next to Dale's snowplow.

    I'm 6'2 and wear a man's large shirt & was going to go for the same size.

    You can always ask the helpful sales associate @ your local sports merchandise store.

    Speaking of which, Why is it that there is no consistency w/ hats?

    Maybe it's just your swelled head at times that is the problem.
