Sizing & On-Body Feel
Cut for youth proportions rather than scaled-down adult sizing. The chest runs roughly 28-34 inches across the youth range, with a shorter body and sleeve so it does not swallow them.
Breathable polyester with a smooth face and a soft hand. It resists wrinkles in a duffel bag and dries fast on a hotel towel rack.
Details That Hold Up Past Wash One
Rounded hem, clean sleeve openings, and reinforced shoulder seams. The small stuff is what keeps a jersey in rotation for years.
From Tailgate Lot to the Upper Deck
Tailgate uniform: jersey, shorts, sneakers, cold drink. Nothing else needed, and it works from the parking lot to the upper deck.
For the fan who already owns everything, a fresh colorway is the safe move. It adds to the collection without duplicating it.
Notes from the product sheet
- Moisture-wicking knit pulls sweat away through nine innings.
- Machine wash cold, hang dry.
Sizing, Care & Ordering FAQ
Can a petite adult or woman wear a Youth Large or Youth XL jersey?
Yes — this is one of the most popular sizing hacks among baseball fans. A Youth XL typically fits similar to an Adult XS / Women's Small in the chest (~38-40 inches), with slightly shorter sleeve and body length.
Do the stitched letters and numbers feel scratchy on the inside?
Not at all. While the exterior features crisp tackle twill with raised stitching for that classic stadium look, the interior backing is finished smoothly so it won't chafe against bare skin when worn solo in the summer.
Should I size up to wear a hoodie underneath for April or October night games?
If you plan to layer this jersey over a heavyweight fleece hoodie, we recommend going up one size so the shoulders and chest don't feel restricted. For wearing over a normal short-sleeve tee or solo, order your regular US size.
Does this jersey have a straight bottom or a rounded baseball hem?
It features the traditional rounded droptail baseball hem with a clean woven locker tag at the lower left front, designed specifically to look sharp worn untucked over jeans or shorts.
