FluffHead Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I'm looking into buying an authentic Bills jersey online. I'm debating whether to go with a Large (50) or XL (52). I generally wear extra large shirts, however some things I have been reading say these jerseys are very big. If I generally where an XL should I go with the Large so that it is not a dress on me? I'm about 6 feet tall 215 lbs. Thanks for any help... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FluffHead Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 Above or under the parka? large enough to wear over a hoodie or jacket would be ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsWatch Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I am same size including shirt and wear a large jersey. It is a bit tight over my parka when I go to winter games. The cut of the neck makes a big difference - many guys wear bigger shirts because of collars but jerseys have V line necks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lets_go_bills Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I don't know what "body type" you have, but I'm 6'1" and 235lbs, but I'm more of a mesomorph, as I lift weights rigorously and have wide shoulders/back with a smaller waist. I wear an XL and it fits good and comfortable, and it's still big enough to put over a large jacket/parka. If I was you, I'd go with XL, LG might not cut it.

ChopBlockKCKS Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I would suggest trying on a 50 or 52 of any team you can find in Albany before buying!! I'm 6 ' 190 and ordered a 50, tight with a hoodie, fits good with tshirt. The only issue I have is the elastic band on the sleeve, they really poof out the shoulder to sleeve part, looks a little silly and feels a lil uncomfortable! They would be good if ya have guns like Michael Pittman! Removed the Fletcher nameplate, and lo and behold, I now have a Kawika jersey for KC!!!!! These dingdongs will talk all kinds of crap on Mitchell!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I bought an authentic Whitner throwback size 52 thinking it would fit like an XL, it does NOT. I HAVE to wear a sweater underneath in order for it to not fit all baggy. One thing i would note is that these jerseys do have a lycra type stretch material down the side, so if you were to err, I would go smaller.
