Louis Garneau sizing

Long. Very long.
I was so excited to find an LG outlet when we were up in the White Mountains a few years ago. Every jersey I tried on in an x small came, no joke, down to the top of my knees.
I did buy a couple of casual, technical fabric type shorts and t-shirts, but the bike clothes were a no- go. If you are tall, it will be perfect.

Really? That's good news. I mean I don't want them down to my knees, but I definitely want them to be longer than every jersey I've tried on. I just want a jersey that comes just past my hip bones while seated.

Well, I am a speck over five feet tall, so they probably won't be down to your knees.

I found a store (an hour away) that sold the LG jerseys and I didn't find them to be long. But it would make sense that you would. I'm a good 6 inches taller than you, so you get all of that extra length! I don't know if LG has XS, but I found the Small kind of loose compared to other Smalls as well.

I did try on one of the Luna Jerseys and they were a little longer than all of the others I've been able to try on. Just thought I'd share that for anybody looking for a longer jersey. But keep in mind, I am 5'6", so if you're taller, they mightn't be as long on you. I also didn't find a big difference from once size to the next in terms of tightness (they were all slightly loose), but they got longer as you went bigger. I didn't buy one at the store, but I think I'll order one online.

I have the Breeze jersey and it is hands down my favorite! I am 5'6" and the medium hits between my hips and pubic bone. Perfect. I actually ordered another one as a spare because it is the best fitting jersey I have ever had.

I think some of the other jersey's may be a tad shorter than the Breeze.

Thanks for the suggestion.... I'll see if I can find one to try on somewhere. Or a place with a good return policy. Is it a loose fitting or tight fitting jersey?

[rubywagon]

Buy it here at TE! They are great with returns/exchanges. I would say it is semi-fitted. It isn't skin tight on me, but not uber baggy. I like that the sleeves are longer than normal on this jersey, and don't have silicon grippers.
