My main complaint about what's out now is that noone who makes team kits really seems to care about how their women's clothing fits! They just throw in a larger chamois and shorten the jersey. Lame!

you know this actually bugs me.... Look I'm small, born that way, 5' tall and not getting any bigger. Believe me ALMOST NOTHING IS REALLY MADE SMALL. It's as difficult for me to find things that fit as it is for people who may be larger than average. Clothing is designed for some idealized model of people in the middle for the most part (which means it fits few....), so it really begins to grate on me that everyone blames the little folks when they can't find something that fits them. It's just as hard for us OK?
thanks

I agree with Eden. I am small and I am not growing taller at age 54; it's increasingly difficult for me to buy anything. I can wear x-small jerseys that have no elastic. I hate elastic! I weigh 106 lbs and the jerseys still ride up on me. So, I mostly have Terry jerseys and a couple of Voler club cuts for women because they seem to be the only ones that make extra smalls with no elastic. I like some of the Shebeest jerseys, but some are actually too big on me in extra small. I was able to shrink one by washing it in hot water a few times.
I think that whoever makes jerseys needs to pay attention to people at the outer edge of the size spectrum; half the time when I go to order stuff from Athleta (regular athletic clothes, not cycling things) the petite x smalls are sold out because there is such a run on them.
