Right ok...

up until now ive always just played in combats and a hoodie but now I feel like im invested in the game enough to go for jerseys and such but looking through the for sale threads and everything the majority of people play in XL or bigger jerseys.
My issue with this is that from jerseys ive tried on a Medium seems best fit( still baggy to allow bounce). The thing is im not a small guy, im 6ft and a stocky build so does everyone just prefer playing in jerseys massively big for them or am I relatively small in jerseys sizes?

I find that when you get pads on etc having a tight jersey can really be a pain, and baggy allows more free movement. Also, means you can pull it up over your pack a bit more for some cheeky bounces :rolleyes:

Also...baggy is "agg" ;)

I have worn a Small, Medium, Jersey and they both worked perfectly with my Pack and Pads, I'd say get the next size up from what you are if your wearing pads and bounce vest, Don't really like a bounce vest so that gives me a bit of play with the shoulders and chest, try some on (if you can) see what they feel like with your Pad's 'ect' on.

Although playing in slightly larger jerseys gives you a slight advantage, I only actually use jerseys my size as it frustrates me having all this pointless material everywhere.
