So my Republic of Anaerobia Jersey arived. I ordered Medium, but even it is slightly too big. It's somewhat roomier then Velowear club fit. :( On their website they list sizing the same as velowear. Not sure what to do now. I made mistake of ripping of a tag, so can't return it now. Should have ordered small.

Maybe you could do more benchpresses and bicep curls?

I don't think it would help that much. Just measured my chest it's 34 inches, but I am 9,10. :eek:

You're just too fit man ... that's why you're able to fly, even with a cast on your left wrist.

So if anyone wants it, I am re-selling it for 65 bucks. Original is 74 plus shipping and handling. Kind of a bummer, but you live you learn. I have never ridden in it. PUt it once to see how it fits.

Must bee that durn meterric sistim theys got over thar in urope.

Actually, if you meant 5'10" and 34" chest, that's thin. I measured myself for the NorCal Jersey and got 34". That's how I came up with XS. With your height, you may need a M or even S. I'll bet that Large SoCal jersey ends up being really big.

Yeah 5'10" Why did I say 9'10". Heh it's friday my brain checked out. :o
Hmm just going by chest it will be XS, but height might be an issue. I love Voler their Medium race cut fits me perfectly.

Remember that Voler makes jerseys in both relaxed cut and race cut. You probably need the latter. Both sizes have about the same length and chest, but the race cut is more contoured in the belly and arms.

Is this the same company making the NorCal jerseys?

Since you ripped the tag you can't return it but you can certainly point out the problem and ask them to check the info on their website for accuracy.

Hmm, interesting. Is voler club cut the same as velowear club cut? I have a medium Velowear club cut and it's a bit snugger then voler one.

AFAIK, Velowear is Voler.

Yes. Thats why I am somewhat surprised that one is slightly baggier then the other.

Maybe the cuts are different between "model" years?

Rick from ElevenGear here: Yes our manufacturer is Voler (American made: Dig it) And yes our jerseys are club cut as opposed to racer cut. Hey it's my job to make you happy: If your MD jersey is essentially unused let's arrange a swap for a SM. If your jersey is used a bit I can get you a great discount on a SM. Contact rick@elevengear.us. (Others: Please don't flame: I'm trying to help a cyclist out here!)

I just want to extend big Kudos to ElevenGear. Great customer support. I just received my small jersey yesterday, and can't wait to ride in it. I would highly recommend buying jerseys from them. Quality is great, shipping is fast, and customer support is awsome! :D
