Our 6XL football jersey measures 142 cm (55.9 in) around the chest of the shirt and 88 cm (34.6 in) long<\/strong>. Almost every jersey in our store is listed from S to 4XL, and 5XL and 6XL are available on request \u2014 with any name and number. Below are the real measurements, so you can order once and get it right.<\/p>\n

Official club shops often stop at XXL, and the big sizes sell out first. Many sellers also label shirts “4XL” that fit like a US 2XL. That’s why we publish the shirt’s own measurements instead of a guess.<\/p>\n

How big are 3XL, 4XL, 5XL and 6XL?<\/h2>\n

Measured on the shirt laid flat. “Shirt chest” is armpit to armpit \u00d7 2 \u2014 the size of the shirt, not of your body. Measurements may vary by 1\u20133 cm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How to pick your size<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Measure a shirt you love.<\/strong> Lay a T-shirt that fits you well flat, measure straight across from armpit to armpit and double it. Pick the jersey size with the closest shirt chest.<\/li>\n
  2. Or measure yourself.<\/strong> Wrap a tape around the widest part of your chest, under the arms. For a comfortable fan fit, choose a shirt chest about 8\u201312 cm (3\u20135 in) bigger than your body.<\/li>\n
  3. Check the length.<\/strong> Bigger sizes are cut longer too \u2014 our 5XL is 85 cm and 6XL is 88 cm \u2014 so the shirt still covers the waistband.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Fan version or player version?<\/h2>\n

    For bigger builds, choose the fan version<\/strong>. It has a straighter, roomier cut. Player versions are made to sit tight on athletes and usually feel one size smaller.<\/p>\n
