Do your jerseys run true to size?

Yes, if you match your chest measurement to the chart rather than assuming your T-shirt letter carries over. A jersey is cut with a few centimeters of ease. Sport-specific cuts differ: soccer runs slim, hockey runs very loose, basketball runs large.

I wear a large T-shirt. What size jersey do I order?

Football, baseball and retro: L. Basketball: M for a fitted look, L for a relaxed drape. Hockey: M, because hockey letters run large. Soccer: XL. Add one size if you plan to wear it over a hoodie.

Are these body measurements or garment measurements?

Body measurements. You measure yourself and match your chest. The finished jersey measures larger than the numbers shown because of the ease built into the cut.

What does a size 44 or 52 jersey mean?

It is your chest circumference in inches. A 44 fits a 41 to 44 inch chest; a 52 fits 48.5 to 53.5 inches. In hockey the number is a catalogue size rather than a chest measurement.

Why does my size L hockey jersey fit like an XL T-shirt?

Hockey jerseys are cut to be worn over shoulder pads, so the size run is generous. A 52 is labelled L but fits like an XL tee. Most fans size down one, or two for a shirt-like fit.

Will a jersey shrink in the wash?

Polyester replica jerseys do not shrink measurably when washed cold and dried low. Cotton-heavy retro bodies can shrink around half an inch on the first wash, so size up if between sizes on a vintage style.

How do I choose between youth and kids sizes?

Youth YS to YXL covers roughly ages 8 to 15. Below that are preschool 4 to 7, toddler 2T to 4T, infant 12M to 24M and newborn 0/3 to 6/9. Use height first, weight second and age last.

Do you carry 4XL and 5XL?

Every sport on this page runs to 4XL at minimum, and football, baseball and retro reach 5XL. Extended sizes are stocked on part of the range rather than every style, so the size list on the product page is the final word.

My measurements fall between two sizes, which one do I take?

Take the larger size. A jersey that is slightly loose reads as a normal jersey fit; one that is tight across the chest cannot be fixed. The exception is hockey, where the run is cut loose and you should take the smaller size.

My size is out of stock, what now?

Send us the team, the style and the size. Most styles can be restocked or made to order, and we will confirm the lead time before you pay.

The same jersey shows two different size lists, which is right?

Both are. A style is often produced as a men's version and a unisex version, and the two runs do not always cover the same sizes. One might stop at 4XL while the other reaches 5XL or starts at XS. The size list of the exact listing you are on is what ships.

Should I order women's or unisex if I normally wear a women's size?

Take the women's cut in your normal size if you want the shirt to follow your shape: narrower shoulder, tapered waist, and 1.5 to 2 inches shorter in the body. Take unisex one size down from your women's size for a straight, oversized look.

Can I exchange a jersey if the size is wrong?

Yes. Unworn jerseys with tags can be exchanged within 30 days and size exchanges are free. Custom name and number jerseys are made to order and can only be exchanged for a defect or a sizing error on our side.

How should this Illinois Fighting Illini jersey be stored in the off-season?

Folded in a drawer or hung in the closet, out of direct sun - window sunlight is what slowly fades stored Illinois Fighting Illini fabric. Plenty of Illinois Fighting Illini fans ask this before checkout; the answer rarely changes.

Does this Illinois Fighting Illini jersey stretch out over time?

The Illinois Fighting Illini knit recovers between wears. What changes jerseys is heat and wet weight on a hanger - both easy to avoid. If anything here is still open, support can clear it up before the Illinois Fighting Illini order ships.

Is a blank Illinois Fighting Illini jersey still worth it if I have a favorite player?

Yes - many fans own both: the named one for game days, and the clean-back Illinois Fighting Illini version for everything else on the calendar. The same holds in youth sizes of the Orange colorway.

How fast will a toddler wear out this Illinois Fighting Illini jersey?

Slower than you would think - the Illinois Fighting Illini fabric handles picnic tables, playground slides, and the washing machine with equal indifference. That applies across the Illinois Fighting Illini lineup, softball included.

Game day, and the rest of the week

Young Illinois Fighting Illini fans outgrow shoe sizes faster than team loyalty, so this cut carries extra length in the body and sleeves to last more than one season. Championships, qualifiers, weeknight meets: Illinois Fighting Illini softball gives you more wear out of the orange and blue than any other sport. It is the one Illinois Fighting Illini jersey that never waits for a special occasion. Gift-ready out of the bag and road-ready out of the dryer, this Illinois Fighting Illini jersey covers both.

Team colors, done right

The Illinois Fighting Illini Orange does not drift between batches: every run is checked against the same reference. Stadium lights, phone cameras, living-room lamps - the Illinois Fighting Illini Orange reads consistently across all of them. The orange and blue do the talking; the Illinois Fighting Illini build just has to keep up.

What it is made of

The whole point of this Illinois Fighting Illini jersey is the weight, or the lack of it. The seams get extra stitching at the shoulders and sides, which is where a Illinois Fighting Illini jersey takes the most abuse. The orange and blue match the Illinois Fighting Illini standard, so the jersey and the broadcast agree with each other.

Keeping it game-ready

Cold water, gentle cycle, hang dry - that is the entire maintenance plan for this Illinois Fighting Illini jersey. High dryer heat is what ages a Illinois Fighting Illini jersey fast, so pull it out while it is still slightly damp. By the next morning the Illinois Fighting Illini jersey is dry and back on the hook, ready for the next one.

Common questions

How should this Illinois Fighting Illini jersey be stored in the off-season?
Folded in a drawer or hung in the closet, out of direct sun - window sunlight is what slowly fades stored Illinois Fighting Illini fabric. Plenty of Illinois Fighting Illini fans ask this before checkout; the answer rarely changes.
Does this Illinois Fighting Illini jersey stretch out over time?
The Illinois Fighting Illini knit recovers between wears. What changes jerseys is heat and wet weight on a hanger - both easy to avoid. If anything here is still open, support can clear it up before the Illinois Fighting Illini order ships.
Is a blank Illinois Fighting Illini jersey still worth it if I have a favorite player?
Yes - many fans own both: the named one for game days, and the clean-back Illinois Fighting Illini version for everything else on the calendar. The same holds in youth sizes of the Orange colorway.
How fast will a toddler wear out this Illinois Fighting Illini jersey?
Slower than you would think - the Illinois Fighting Illini fabric handles picnic tables, playground slides, and the washing machine with equal indifference. That applies across the Illinois Fighting Illini lineup, softball included.
