***** Which type is right for you? *****

Decided to go for an Authenic (as I dislike the tail drop!) but in a bit of a muddle over sizing.

Normal t-shirts I am 2XL, my last replica was XL but I find that too big so in replica I guess I would be large. I think a 50/52" chest across the shirt is what I need, what would this be in Authentic??

Thanks

You always drop a size in the Authentic jersey, so I'd say that if the replica XL was too big, then a size 50 should be right for you.

Checking out some Jerseys I notice that "Length + 2" appears on a few Premiers I have seen.

Is this the whole jersey or is it referring to the drop at the back??

Thanks

It's the droptail at the back mate.

Cheers, have ordered one Premier and one Authentic to see which ones I will go for in the future so will hopefully get to check them out next week

Got my Jerseys today and all I can say is WOW. The difference is massive, as soon as I picked up the Authentic I could feel it miles better than the replicas I have.

I got a Brees Premier in a Large which fitted perfectly, the Bush Authentic however seems a little to big so I may have to go down to a M48 (have contacted SAS about possibly exchanging).

While the Premiers are nice, and I certainly will pick up some more at the right price, I prefer all the differences on the Authentics (Sleeves, Neck, Stitching and No tail drop!)

Certainly wont be looking at replicas as much now and just need to go and sort out some Giants Authentics!

Another convert to the world of authentic's. Good for you. You can post pictures of your latest purchases in the ' my latest pickup' thread for us all to admire.

Will post up when I get the M Authentic as the L is packaged up (SAS have ok'd the exchange no problems - excellent service from them ).

Ha ha I know the feeling. I went from having a few replicas to owning 15-20 authentics in the space of 3 years since discovering a US-based jersey forum like this one.

How do M&N sizes compare with Reeboks?

Looking to pick up an M&N, put it seems the sizing is a bit different to the Reeboks where the 48s come up big.

I think I am 50chest but where a 48 Reebok authemtic and Large Premier. Am I better off with XL or 2XL for M&N??

Thanks

Really!! Gosh, I nearly bought a 52 early tonight as I thought they would be truer than the Reeboks

I guess I am going to have to take a chance on one and see where I go.

Yes M&N sizing is different to Reebok. If you take a 48 Reebok then a 44 M&N is the closest.

I like the replicas cause im poor...

For M&N it depends on the individual jersey itself. The newer ones, i.e. past few years. are pretty consistent with sizing. But if you are talking about some of the older runs - durenes, and ones made 7-10 years ago, then the size varies by the individual jersey. For example, a Dolphins M&N Marino size 52 would likely differ from a Steve Young 75th anniversary M&N size 52.
