Before I order a Santini jersey I'm looking for a spot of guidance on sizing; is it typically Italian or relatively normal?

For reference I'm a pretty reliable Large in Rapha jerseys.

FWIW it's the Trieste jersey they released for the Giro this year.

ta!

    I have a Santini jersey in XS which should actually be a size too small according to the size guide, it is quite loose fitting.
    The Decathlon Aero 900's I have are in size small and are a good tight fit and really good vfm IME.

    Similar to Rapha in my experience. Lots of Santini size guides if you Google

    I wear an XL Santini which is about a 42 chest in old money. They do a couple of different fits however, so it's worth taking this into account, the form fit, is pretty much skin tight, but the relaxed fit is a bit more flattering, and not too loose.

    If its the jersey that prendas.co.uk have I would drop them a email, they always reply quickly and are very helpful with sizing. I am a medium in Rapha but a large in Santini.

    I'm 5'9", 38 chest and 33-34 waist, and found a medium Santini from Prendas a stretched skin tight fit - uncomfortably small. A large was much better.
