Jersey Sizing is Frustrating, Need Brand to Try

[RubyTuesday]

Primal has been my best fit in a jersey. I normally take a medium shirt and I take an XL in the primal shirt. Weird isn't it?

Perhaps look at Shebeest and/or Terry jerseys.

I like Primal Wear, too (also have to size-up). And Twin Six (fit me perfect in my regular clothing size). I have a very hour-glass figure (big boobs, small ribcage and waist, average hips, big butt and thighs). I cannot do ANY jerseys with elastic at the waist, like Susan pointed-out.

I can see why Primal fits us both then. While I have no boobs, we are built the same otherwise. Why God.....why no boobs?

I second Twin Sixx for the hourglass figure, Hate that they lack selection but what they do have is bad ***.

Look for jerseys that are described as "touring" or "relaxed." Shebeest and Terry some some offerings in this regard, although I'm not sure if Shebeest is still in business. That's too bad since their "Bellisima" jerseys have a nice relaxed fit. Avoid anything described as having a "race" or "athletic" fit. Susan, of course, is right in suggesting you avoid elastic. I'm not sure I'd describe myself as a true pear, but I just don't like what elastic hems do for me.

it is also not so hard to unpick the bottom seam, remove the elastic and rehem the bottom of the jersey. Probably a lot easier if you have a zig zag sewing machine or serger rather than by hand but still. I have broad shoulders, no boobs, and broad hips so most of my jerseys have had their elastic removed.
