How to Measure

  1. Take a shirt you like the fit of and lay it flat on a table.
  2. Width: measure straight across the chest, from armpit to armpit.
  3. Length: measure from the highest point of the shoulder at the collar down to the bottom edge.
  4. Compare your measurements with the chart above and choose the size that is closest.

Which size should I choose?

  • Fan version: take your usual size. The fit is straight and regular.
  • Player version: fits tighter. Take your usual size for a tight fit, or one size larger if you want more room. Read more about the difference →
  • Retro shirts: generally fit a little looser. Take your usual size for a relaxed fit, or one size smaller if you want it to fit tighter. Read the retro guide →
  • Jackets: follow the jacket chart above and consider whether you want room for a shirt underneath.

Washing instructions to keep the shirt looking good longer

  • Wash at 30 °C with the shirt turned inside out.
  • Avoid tumble drying and ironing directly on the print and logos.
  • Hang the shirt to dry so it retains its shape.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I take a larger size if I am between two sizes?

For fan versions: go with your usual size. For player versions: take one size larger if you want a looser fit. For retro shirts: it is better to take your usual size, as they are already a little roomier.

Can I exchange the size?

You have a 14-day right of withdrawal on shirts without personal printing. Shirts with your own name and number are made for you and cannot be returned – therefore, check the size extra carefully before ordering printing.

Do the shirts shrink in the wash?

No, not if you wash at 30 °C and avoid the tumble dryer.
