Men's Castelli Sizing

[VeloVT]

Does anyone have any men's Castelli jerseys? I'm not a fan of the 2008 women's lineup but there are a few men's jerseys that I do like. I wear a small in women's. According the the men's size chart, I COULD conceivably fit into men's small (I have a 33" bust, 26/27" waist; men's small fits 33--36" chest 26-28" waist), but I don't have a lot of faith in size charts, I'm often a size smaller or larger than the chart says I should be...

I like my jerseys to have a fairly snug fit, and my big concern with the men's cut is that it will be sloppy in the chest/shoulders (I'm very small busted).

I was hoping one of the local stores that carries Castelli would have a men's small on hand that I could try (I would have ordered from them for the trouble), but unfortunately neither did...

Thanks for your help!

I'm trying on a Castelli (men's L) right now for you. I'm a similar size to you. The large is more too long than anything else. I'm guessing their large is cut for a tall guy, who is pretty narrow (like my BF). The shoulders aren't hanging down at all.

I just asked bf what size he thinks I'd need, and he said a med (based on how this one looks). It actually isn't so loose that I wouldn't wear it. In fact, dbf might have just lost a jersey! Still has tags, even .
