Getting back to this jersey question, I am Plus size and have a heck of a time finding cycling clothes. The men's stuff is cut smaller in the hips (which is usually how a man is shaped and not a woman), and that doesn't work. Even some of the women's plus sizes are too large in the shoulders to get it to fit around the bust and hips. My best shirt is a man's t-shirt which I stretch out in the body when it is wet. That doesn't usually ride up either. But it is plain cotton, so it gets wet, doesn't wick, doesn't have pockets. And I agree with CorsairMac, many manufacturer's XL is still pretty danged small for many of us. The Garneau 3X chest is only a 42. That is not my definition of a 3X! I have a Mt. Borah jersey that fits great in the bust/hips and is a grat length, but is way too big in the shoulders. And, the fabric is very lightweight, but it's slippery and rides up the slippery fabric of my shorts. It's all very frustrating!!
