I picked it up on Chainlove. I just made an assumption that since it was a "climbers" jersey that it was super tight...so I went with a medium. The lame thing is that I have a small Castelli team kit from my LBS...and it fits good.
The medium fits like one of those flappy club fit jerseys. If I ever go Castelli again...I'm not going to size up...or size up with any manufacturer.
I hope that the back of the jersey doesn't sag below my ass once I fill up the pockets.
Oh...another company that I found that has wonky sizing is Hincapie. I have a small kit from them also. The jersey fits nice and snug...but the bib shorts are too big...they fit like a medium compared to other companies I've tried. I need to wear like an XS! Same with their gloves...I got a small...and they fit like a medium.
