Terry Wild Goose Chase ride

[jeannierides]

Somehow I anticipated this. Most of my jerseys are medium and I ordered this one in a large. Even DH said "Wow that looks small!" when I held it up. I tried it on and it's good.

I love that it is full zip. I also love that it is bright yellow

I won't wear it til the ride - but am looking forward to having it in my collection afterwards.

Will you exchange yours for a larger one?

I have emailed Terry, and hopefully I'll be able to exchange it. I thought I had anticipated the size difference too, but evidently not... At least we got them early enough, that exchanging may be possible!

Good thing I am not going this year! If Jeannierides can't wear a medium, then I would have to order a XXXL! I may be a bit shorter than she is, but I make up for it in.....uh.....width.

Then again, I never order anything smaller than a large from Terry - their jerseys seem to run small on me.

bleahhhhh. Got my jersey and it's way too small. I laid it out on top of other jerseys and it's at least 4" smaller. Sheesh.

If it's not refundable, I'll offer it for sale here.

Yeah, mine's too small, too. In the catalog I got yesterday, they said to size up. I don't recall that warning when I bought mine, so I hope they'll take returns. I wonder if they used a new vendor, or if this is the way all Terry jerseys are sized.

Well, I *thought* I had sized up! I guess with the pounds creeping up these last few weeks and months (let's blame it on Lyrica) I didn't account for the sizing! This is way beyond just needing a size up... this is like two sizes too small! I've never ordered any clothing from Terry, so I wasn't sure what to expect.
Anyway, I'm planning to call Terry on Monday (maybe Tuesday since Monday is a holiday) to see what's up with the sizing, and try to exchange.

DH told me my jersey came in....but I can't try it on until Monday evening. I'm in CT now and the jersey's in MD!
What brand is the jersey? Is it a Terry? I ordered a L, the L in Terry's jersey's usually fits me.
Fingers are crossed......
p.s. If it's tight...well, I can always call it "race fit". Yeah....that's it. Race fit!

I'm sure I saw those jerseys for sale on the Terry site.

You're right, Zen, I saw them as well. According to their size charts, I should be able to wear a medium, but since the medium is more than just a "race fit" for me, I'll get them to send me a large, and hope that fits!

[7rider]

I just tried it on (I'm home...cruise control at 70 + light traffic = record time for me: CT to MD in 5', 15" !)...definitely "race fit." It says on their website that "size is accurate" and if you want a looser fit, order up. For me - a stout size 12 - the L fits closely...about like a Descente jersey in L fits. I'll save it for my "skinny days" and hope I'm feeling a skinny day the day of the ride!
