No Men's Small
To disable ads, please log-in.
I know most American men are hugely fat or just big I guess.
But I am married to one who is not. I was hoping to get Thom a few new jerseys for Christmas from TE. Yes, they do have a few men's jerseys. But it looks like they don't even carry men's small sizes. 
I know it all has to do with what's likely to sell, but I like to give TE my bike business when I can.

I didn't ask her. I just did a search on men's jerseys. The sizing chart starts at medium on the two I like. I'm assuming that they just don't sell well enough to make it worthwhile to carry them in small. He'd swim in a medium.
Actually they do have the Castelli jersey in small. But he wouldn't like that - not big into branding.
I wanted to get him the GW Galibier jersey and I was going to get the sunflower one for us to wear on the tandem. I don't like to be matchie, but I do like to be similar.

Veronica,
My DH is a medium and notices some are getting big on him. Both Voler and Capo sell smalls. You may have seen my thread on this very issue a few weeks ago. My older son started riding and I was looking for some nice wool things for him, at a reasonable price, in a small. I know Ibex, etc has stuff in men's small, but i was trying to be thrifty. He's 5' 6" and about 120, so small is the size he needs to have. Frustrating. I know my DH only buys Voler stuff now because of the quality.
