Hello all , Apologies if this is in the wrong section ( feel free to move ) I want to purchase both the training shirt and hoodie/jacket from BRFCdirect and wanted to know if anyone knows what the sizes are like , as in I’m usually an XL but is it a small XL or normal ? Has anyone purchased anything clothing from there recently who can advise ? Any help will be most appreciated as I can’t be arsed with sending things back if it’s the wrong size. Thanks in advance. Alex

I would go one size up. I’m normally a M but needed a L for replica shirt and the dark blue and light blue warm-up / training tops.

Thanks for the advice so far. I was thinking of splashing some cash to help the club, but when looking online I was left wondering what the sizes really meant. Wish they'd give some indication what the sizes are, even if only approximate.

Go up one size for a fitted shirt and two if you want it a bit baggy. I've got this season's shirt and training shirt in XL for running

My son who usually buys shirts xxl size in Bristol broadmead stores , has just purchased 2 Rovers leisure shirts in 3xl size & they are a perfect fit, so I would definitely go up 1 size .
Got to admit the leisure shirts are cracking tops & I am tempted to get 1 myself, also they were delivered in less than a week.

Most good online retailers produce a conversion chart in cm’s
But yeah go up a size if you like breathing

For tops, what does not help is that most training/replica garments are slightly tapered down from the chest, so for the less athletic physiques, it may well be fine across the chest, but as we go down, the garment becomes tighter and tighter until yer midriff looks like a sausage that is about to explode!, I have many Gas unwearable items purchased online, go up at least one chest size. |

Ha ha - that's a perfect description of what I looked like when I tried on the shirt that Alex Rodman had signed for me. He's obviously a lean, mean fighting machine - I'm more of a Telly Tubby type! |
