Addiscombe Jerseys...

Postby -Adam- » Sat Feb 24, 2007 12:12 am

Just been having a look on the GB's site, about to purchase my first acc jersey...

but, what size?

usually i buy small jerseys, the site says and acc small jerseys are circa 34 chest

and a medium is a 36, so im not sure which to get.

please advise on how they come up for size...

cheers,

adam

The ACC kit has the rather small italian cycling kit sizing.

I buy a small in mens clothes from the high street, and a medium in the ACC kit, if that's any help.

Jeezzzuuuzzzz, thats wot yer legs are for you lazy git! Those long appendages hanging from your hips will quite easily get you about vast distances- maybe with training you will be able to make a 100 yards from a parking space :shock:
Students- dontcha just luv 'em?

PS. horror of horrors you could even attempt to ride there- but be careful of those zipps :wink:

indeed he is, no worries!

no zipps yet mr munnery, but i did get offered a display pair for 850 last night at the world cup meeting by royles. but they looked suspiciously like they'd been used for more than display use! however, the guy did say i could have a box fresh set for 899, so im even more tempted now!

stu, what size do you get t-shirts in etc normaly?

cheers,

adam

Adam, problem solved. Our club kit is made by Santini. So find a shop local to you that stocks Santini kit, try it for size then you'll know what size club kit to buy.
