Size Guide
Fan Jersey Guide · Sizing
Everything below is the garment measured flat, not your body. Chest is the full width from armpit seam to armpit seam; length runs from the highest shoulder point to the hem. Fastest way to get it right: take a jersey that fits you well, measure it the same way, and match the numbers.
In short
Measure a jersey you already own, laid flat: chest straight across between the armpit seams, length from the highest shoulder point to the hem, and match those numbers to the chart for your category. Between sizes? Go up — jerseys are cut to hang loose. Our charts cover men's/unisex XS–5XL, women's W-XS–W-4XL, Authentic numbered sizes 36–64, youth S–XL and preschool/toddler 12M–7.
How to measure
Chest
Lay the jersey flat and measure straight across, from one armpit seam to the other. That full width is the number in the chart — so a chart reading of 44 in means the shirt measures 44 in across, not a 44 in body.
Length
From the highest point of the shoulder straight down to the bottom hem, with the jersey laid flat and smoothed out.

Authentic — numbered sizing
36 – 64some Authentic styles are sold by number, not letter
The number is the chest width in inches — so a size 48 measures 48 in across. Use the letter column to translate your usual size.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 36 | XS | 36 | 29 | 91 | 74 |

Three tips before you order
Cut for comfort
Basketball jerseys are meant to hang loose. If you want a regular, closer fit, order one size below your usual.
Between sizes?
Go up. The extra room is how the cut is designed to be worn, and it layers over a hoodie in winter without pulling.
Compare, don't guess
Match the numbers to a shirt you already own rather than to your body. Printed names and numbers on the back do not change the fit.
Measurements are taken flat and can vary by roughly 1 in / 2 cm between styles. Youth overlaps preschool at age 7 — in that case Youth S is the slightly longer of the two. Still unsure? Email fanservicehub@outlook.com with your height, usual size and the jersey you are looking at, and we'll tell you which one to take.
