[Albion] New kit sizing

[Codner pharmaceuticals]

You were unlucky. The Euro shirt was a shitshow. Said "Slim fit" but was wide AND short. Just weird.

Happy to be corrected (someone get a tape measure out), but I think home shirt sizing is consistent each year.

They're likely to look better on us older gentlemen than the away shirts (which are literally slim fit). Stripes are 'thinning' too, right?

I've had similar challenges with training kit.

Yes my Euro shirt is a one off and includes Peacehaven to Portslade.

Oh God, that's a minefield of its own.

(For anything non-branded in the shop, I'd definitely size up)

I admire your openness. If I was short and fat I’d most likely keep quiet.

Very good! We are just a couple of days past the glorious twelfth, game on.

I purchased my usual XXL home shirt two or three weeks back, paid for postage to Oz (not cheap), and it arrives taking up the space of a marquee! Too big too wear anywhere as it is so long. Wasted money as far as I am concerned as postage costs will just eat into @ny refund and/or replacement. Some may say my fault for assuming some correlation to previous Nike sizing including last years kit, but then you see comments like this on X …..



I have even considered buying a keepers shirt as it looks cool, but there is no size guide on the website.

C’mon Albion, sort this shit show out. Anyone else had problems?

I agree. Mine is a tent.

Wonder if the fans representatives could mention this to the club?

I bought 3 XL shirts a few years ago and they were 3 different sizes, made in 3 different countries.

Agree - no real alternative but to rock up to the Amex a bit early and use the shop changing room before queues get enormous. I did that for the training top and hauled 3 sizes into the room as I knew it would be a lottery guessing which might fit

Well, an alternative is that fans (we) post size details here, and we make our own sizing chart.

Name shirt type and quoted size. Measure pit to pit, and collar to bottom edge. Maybe CM and inches.

Does anyone have this season's home shirt in medium and would be able to check the pit to pit dimensions? I'm close to the threshold...

I checked the last shirts I bought and 2020-21 is 20.5" and fits perfectly, but 2021-22 is 20" and a bit more snug

people buying XXL football shirts is just a non starter in my view.

I've been saying this for years and can't believe this isnt the standard shirt sizing method used by all brands as a matter of course

Yeah, just received one for my birthday.
Virtually the same as your 21/22 model.
51cm or 20.08 inches.
Perfect fit for me.

Thanks, I've ordered a large, probably for the best if I want to wear a t-shirt underneath.

I ordered the short sleeved GK kit last week- I was torn between L and XL, I went for XL slightly worried that it might resemble a tent, but actually it fits me (6'3", 15 stone) perfectly.

They now have the red and black versions of the goalkeeper kit (short sleeve) online https://shop.brightonandhovealbion.com/kit/gk-kit/adult/
