Vintage retro fits run a bit roomier than today's athletic cuts. Use the charts below to match your measurements. If you're between sizes, size up for a relaxed retro look or down for a closer modern fit.
How to Measure
Chest: Measure all the way around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape level. Half this number = your armpit-to-armpit measurement (a size 50 jersey = 25 in armpit to armpit when laid flat).
Length: Measured from the top of the collar straight down to the bottom hem.
Head (hats): Wrap a soft tape just above the ears and across the middle of your forehead, where the cap will sit.
Hockey Jerseys
Authentic on-ice cut — true vintage sizing. Most fans wear their normal size; size up if you plan to layer.
| Size | Chest (in) | Length (in) |
|---|---|---|
| S | 44 – 45 | 30 |
| M | 46 – 47 | 31 |
| L | 48 – 49 | 32 |
| XL | 51 – 52 | 33 |
| 2XL | 55 – 56 | 34 |
| 3XL | 59 – 60 | 35 |
| 4XL | 62 – 63 | 36 |
| Goalie Cut | 64 | 34 |
Measurements are of the garment laid flat, not body measurements. Goalie Cut is a cut, not a size — it is built to go on over a chest protector and arm pads, with short, wide sleeves so the trapper and blocker clear. Goalie Cut is tackle twill only. If you are not playing goal in it, order a player size.
