Has anyone got the Saxo Bank Thermal Jersey?


I am trying to figure which size to get but as usual the size charts give conflicting results.

Is it best to go by height,chest or waist?

Chest would be S or M, but height would be XL/XXL :shock:

    Jersey sizing goes off your chest size - not your height or waist.

    Thermal jerseys are often a little snugger than a regular jersey. Just depends how tight you want it to be. However, if you have a small chest but are freakishly tall, then go another size bigger as it will make the jersey longer.

    Or buy from a place that accepts returns!
  • I have just received an XL from Wiggle.

    I'm 5ft11in, 12 stone, about 40 inch chest. I normally take a large in most jerseys from Santini, Vermarc, Craft etc.

    The XL is miles too small, like a medium in most other brands. It's quite short and very restrictive round the chest and shoulders. This is the smallest sized bike jersey I've ever had!

    I went with the medium. To says it's a close fit is an understatement but once on the bike it feels very comfortable.

    Is the Saxo one a Nalini shirt? Just got the Nalini Liquigas jersey in XXL and its quite tight. I'm over 6 foot and quite wide in the shoulders (and the belly, LOL). I know they often say you should go a size up from what you'd normally wear if its an Italian cut, :lol:

    Skinny little Italians. I demand Saxon and Viking sizing :lol:
  • The Sportful XL shirt is very small for its "size". I would say more like a 38" chest, easily one size smaller than the earlier Craft jersey of the same size I`ve got.
