Twin Six sizing?

[zoom-zoom]

Can anyone tell me how the Twin Six women's jerseys run? ie, if I typically wear a size M, will I also likely want a M in their jersey?

Thanks. :D

I am typically a M. The Twin Six jersey I tried on in M, seemed a little short in the torso, but fit like a typical M everywhere else.

I recently tried some of their stuff on in both small and medium. It seemed to be a more relaxed cut than some other brands. I could get the small on, zipped, and it was still comfy, but it was definitely a race fit on me. The medium (my normal size) was a much more relaxed fit, but not sloppy. I preferred the medium.

Excellent. Becky, I see from your other thread that you are relatively busty--me too (I'm a 34D). I wear a M in most things, though sometimes things will fit everywhere, except my boobs. Sounds like a M Twin Six will be just fine for me.

Any sleeveless jersey ideas for me? ;) It sounds like we're in the same boat, so to speak.

I'm both large and busty :) so I buy their XXL, but I do love them as they are the only things that don't make me feel like a stuffed sausage. :)

I thought they ran big...I got my jersey three years ago, though. I had to exchange a large for a medium, and that still feels relaxed.

Their t-shirts, on the other hand, run very small!

LOVE Twin Six!

ETA: FYI, there isn't elastic/grips on the bottom hem, at least on my jersey (the Betty).

I agree. Normally, there's no way that I can wear a small. Twin Six's stuff seems to be the exception for me...

I'm 5'7" with virtually no chest and I can't wear the Twin Six jerseys. The medium felt a little too short, and the large fit better except that the pockets are very high and the elastic at the top of them is tight, so the jersey felt too tight around my ribs.

Not yet. The only one I have has that blasted elastic on the bottom. I did just order a Bellwether one that I hope will work better. The one I have is a Cannondale that otherwise fits well, just creeps up because of the elastic. Looking at that recent TE poll makes me wonder why so many companies insist upon that "feature." Most women don't seem to like it. My guess is the ones who do aren't sporting the hourglass figure that I have been "blessed" with. :p

Hmmm...now I wonder what size I would need. I think my ribcage/bust is 36-37" when wearing a bra. My waist and shoulders are pretty small. Maybe the M would be too big...?

You might try emailing them to ask. I had to email them to arrange for returning my order, and I think the person I dealt with was a woman.

I may do that. Next week they are doing the 2011 Fat Cyclist pre-order, so I definitely want to get one of those.
