Get European jerseys? I can't buy any American clothing, be it sports or fashion related. European always fits great.

I have a 31in chest size and I find Size 2 Nalini jerseys generally fit well. The only other brands I have experience with is Hincapie and Pearl Izumi- both of which are too large for me even in their smallest available cuts.

European stuff. My chest is 33 inches and I use jerseys from European manufactures that are size small (I can't use most XS sizes because I am a little over 5'11'' tall).

I have a skinny riding pal - he's 6'4" and 145. He gets custom fit jerseys from Boure, out of Colorado. They charge a 25% premium to do custom, and it's high quality stuff. Their classic jerseys are on sale now for $45 - they're normally $60. Not sure you could get the sale price on a custom order.

You're right, it is a little baggy but not so much as to annoy me on rides compared to other brands. Even my XS race-cut Capo jerseys aren't tight on my frame, but I am fine with that.
