    isn't there a 36-38?

    a 34-36 will be pretty small and the 38-40 will be medium to large - surely they have one in between that?

    as for fit, i'm afraid I don't know :)

    don't think so,
    small 34-36, medium 38-40. that's from fox size guide.

    ahh, just looked on the fox racing site and their size guide is different to stif shop size guide, says medium is 36-38 hmm wonder which is correct?

    36-38 sounds more like a "normal" medium to me. 38-40 would be a generous medium if you like it a bit looser or plan to wear armour under it.

    give stif a call and ask them to have a look at one for you. It's my local LBS, they're a nice bunch!

    yeah you'd think so, but a mace jersey medium is more like 42-44 hehe so i guess it depends if it's designed for use with body armor in mind, which i don't use. gave em an email anyway.

    true, sizing can be all screwed up, especially if you start buying US designed clothing!

    compare something described as medium in italy to a medium in the US and they are probably about 4" apart!

    stif should be able to sort you out, although you may get a quicker answer if you call them. leave the phone ringing for a while, the shop's got quite a few floors and they're sometimes a good 30 seconds sprint to a phone!

    I've found some of the fox jerseys to be small round the shoulders top of arms (even with the odd massive necks)

    My g/fs brother sent me a tshirt from the US in XL after he asked my size..when I got it it was a tent..it looked absolutely massive on me and I'm not small...

    Tell me about it, XL shoulders and chest with a medium waist makes all jerseys look like tents, and getting riding trousers in a long leg is ridiculous. :roll:

    Why are MTB economics; spend twice as much as you intended, but only half as much as you wish you could afford? :roll:
