Looking at getting one of these jerseys. I normally buy a Large in Mavic and Craft jerseys and jackets. According to the Assos size chart I should stick with a Large - is the size chart pretty true or do you typically go a size up, as per some other continental brands?

I'm 41" chest and 180cm tall.


Thanks in advance

    I am normally a medium in all SS jerseys, but i couldn't make the zips meet on the medium assos jerseys.

    Oh, and the equipe jersey has a massive logo on the back. I didn't like the look of it.

    Assos size charts are bang on IME, so think you should get Large unless you're especially 'large for your height'.

    Thanks for the responses. Hmm, not sure I like the design on the back of the jersey- thanks anto164. I'm going to find a local stockist and try some on to get a better idea of sizing.

    The equipe is a more generous cut than the Uno, it fits more like a regular UK sizing. I am an XL in Uno, but a rage in equipe and mille.
