    I am thin woman and I like jerseys with a men's cut better. I don't really believe that all women have the hourglass figure. I just feel better in jerseys with some elastic at the bottom.

    For anyone who is thinking of trying a unisex or men's jersey, the rule of thumb is that the size needed for most makers is one size larger than what you wear in a unisex tee-shirt. If you wear a size large in a unisex tee, then you need to buy the jersey in an extra-large. The exceptions, at least for me, are the makers Canari and Free Spirit are the same size as the unisex tee, so essentially one size smaller than the other makers.

    I have broad shoulders, and I also wear men's. I will disagree with the pockets comment. While some women's jerseys don't have 3 pockets or have small pockets, my men's XS jerseys also occasionally only have 2 pockets or have really tiny pockets (some are better, it all depends on the brand). I also prefer men's for the torso length. Don't feel weird about it.

    My husband and I share the same sports jerseys. There are mens and womens jerseys in our collection (of course without floral or pink details ), we just buy what fits (and then steal the best ones from each other ).

    I'd like the torso length of guys jerseys but I don't think I could find them small enough. Anyone know how boys jerseys run? Are they longer as well?

    I have to go with team custom orders. XS race cut works for me. I think Voler goes down to XXS, but these sizes are not usually available for general retail. I have the hardest time finding a winter jacket, because I don't really like my team's custom option (and I wouldn't race in it anyway), but it's too hard to find the right size otherwise.
