      Size Guide

      Size Guide

      The complete fit handbook for Gridiron Kit jerseys — measured to the inch and the centimeter so you order the right size with total confidence.

      Quick rule: Not sure between two sizes? For a game-day, loose fit size up. Every jersey is covered by our 30-day return policy if the fit isn't right.

      1 · How To Measure

      Wear minimal clothing and stand relaxed. Use a soft (cloth) tape measure, keep it level and snug but not tight. All our size charts use body measurements, not garment measurements — so measure your body, not a shirt you own.

      Chest widest part, arms down Body Length shoulder → hem Waist natural waist / navel Hips widest seat Inseam crotch → ankle Sleeve shoulder → cuff
      1

      Chest

      Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, arms relaxed at your sides. Keep it level across the back.

      2

      Waist

      Measure at your natural waistline, roughly level with your navel. Don't suck in.

      3

      Body Length

      From the highest point of the shoulder (near the neck) straight down to the hem.

      4

      Sleeve

      From the shoulder seam out to the cuff — most relevant for jerseys.

      5

      Hips

      Around the widest part of your hips/seat, feet together. Useful if layering bottoms under pads.

      6

      Inseam

      From the crotch seam down the inner leg to the ankle. Reference for padded-game layering.

      Units: 1 inch = 2.54 cm. Our charts show both — inches first, centimeters in small gray text. When between numbers on the chart, round up to the larger size for a comfortable fit.

      2 · Men's Jerseys

      Body measurements in inches (and cm). "Fit" describes how the cut sits relative to your body.

      Pro tip: our men's jerseys are cut to layer over shoulder pads, so they run slightly roomy. For an off-field, body-skimming fit, consider sizing down one.

      3 · Women's Jerseys

      Tailored through the torso with a slightly tapered waist. Measurements in inches (and cm).

      SizeBustWaistHipsBody Length
      S38"97 cm32"81 cm40"102 cm27"69 cm

      2XL50"127 cm44"112 cm52"132 cm31"79 cm

      Women's jerseys run true to the chart. If you're between sizes and prefer a relaxed game-day look, size up; for a fitted look, stay true.

      4 · Youth Jerseys

      Chest measurement with recommended height and age range. Measurements in inches (and cm).

      SizeChestApprox. HeightApprox. Age

      YXL41"104 cm60–64"152–163 cm14–16
      Tip for growing kids: If your child is between sizes or near the top of a range, size up — jerseys layer easily and they'll get another season of wear. A YXL often bridges nicely into adult Small.

      5 · Height & Weight Fit Finder

      The fastest way to pick a size if you don't have a tape measure. These are starting points — athletic/wide builds should size up.

      Men

      5'7"–5'9"160–180 lbXL
      5'9"+180–200 lb2XL

      Weight is only a guide — a 185 lb powerlifter and a 185 lb runner need different sizes. Always trust your chest measurement over the scale.

      6 · Big & Tall Jerseys

      For broader builds and longer torsos. "Tall" adds ~2" to body length and ~1.5" to sleeves; Big adds chest/waist room.

      8 · Authentic vs. Replica — Which Fit?

      Authentic (Game Fit)

      Cut to layer over pads, like the pros wear on the field.

      • Slightly loose through the body and sleeves
      • Longer sleeves for pad coverage
      • Stitched, durable numbers & names
      • Best for: game day, layering, true fan look
      • Size down if you want a snug, off-field fit

      Replica / Throwback (Tailored)

      Everyday fan wear, closer to the body.

      • More tailored through the torso
      • Shorter, lighter sleeves
      • Applied numbers suited to casual wear
      • Best for: casual wear, gifting, youth
      • True to the chart — order your normal size
      Custom name & number jerseys are made to order in your selected size. Authentic custom runs about one size larger in feel than Replica custom. Double-check the measurements before ordering — personalized items follow the standard return rules only if defective.

      9 · Between Sizes? Decide Here

      Use your build and how you'll wear it to break the tie.

      Athletic / broad shoulders

      Chest is the priority. Size up so the chest isn't tight; the waist will be a touch loose but looks intentional.

      Slim build

      Stay true to the chart, or size down one for a sharper silhouette (Replica especially).

      Wearing pads / layers

      Size up at least one from your tee size — Authentic jerseys are already cut for this.

      Gift, unknown size

      Pick the recipient's usual tee size; our 30-day return covers exchanges if needed.

      Long torso

      Go Tall (LT/XLT/2XLT) or simply size up — body length grows with the size.

      Prefer loose / oversized

      Size up one to two for the relaxed streetwear look.

      10 · Jersey Fabric & Feel

      • Authentic Game Jerseys: 100% polyester breathable mesh — wicks sweat, holds its shape, lightweight for all-season wear on the field or in the stands.
      • Replica / Throwback Jerseys: lighter poly-blend performance knit with a softer hand — built for everyday fan wear and all-day comfort.
      • Custom Name & Number Jerseys: made on the same Authentic or Replica body you choose; numbers are stitched (Authentic) or applied (Replica) for lasting wear.

      11 · Jersey Care

      • Turn the jersey inside out before washing.
      • Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle; mild detergent only.
      • Hang dry — avoid tumble dryers and direct high heat.
      • Do not bleach, iron directly on numbers, or dry-clean.
      • Store flat or on a wide hanger to preserve shoulder shape.

      Following these steps keeps stitched numbers and prints intact season after season — and protects your 365-day warranty coverage.

      12 · Fit FAQ

      Do your jerseys run true to size?

      Replica jerseys run true to the size chart. Authentic jerseys are cut roomier to fit over pads, so they feel about one size larger than a standard shirt — size down if you want a fitted look.

      Will the jersey shrink after washing?

      Our polyester mesh and knit fabrics are pre-shrunk and resist shrinkage. Following the cold-wash, hang-dry care instructions, you should see no noticeable shrinkage.

      I'm between two sizes — which should I pick?

      For a relaxed game-day fit, size up. For a tailored everyday look, size down (Replica) or stay true (Authentic). See section 9 for build-specific guidance.

      Can I wear shoulder pads under a Replica jersey?

      You can, but it'll be snug. Authentic jerseys are designed for pads; for padded wear we recommend Authentic or sizing up in Replica.

      What if the size I ordered doesn't fit?

      Unworn jerseys with tags can be returned within 30 days for an exchange or refund. See our Return Policy. Custom name/number jerseys are returnable only if defective.

      Do women's jerseys run small?

      No — they follow the women's chart in section 3 and run true. If you're between sizes and want a looser fit, size up; for a fitted look, stay true.

      How do I get a longer length if I'm tall?

      Choose our Tall sizes (LT, XLT, 2XLT) which add about 2" of body length and 1.5" of sleeve, or simply size up.

      NFL Football Fan Jersey

      Barry Sanders Detroit Lions 2nd Alternate Retired Player Game Jersey - Black

      Game | Alternate | Black

      You know the feeling when the Detroit Lions momentum swings and everyone in the room leans in? This one was made for that.

      Made for Lions supporters who want the Alternate look in a wearable everyday cut, this Black Game Jersey keeps the details faithful and the comfort honest. It works on game day, at the gym, or just out with friends.

      Club identity

      Rep the Detroit Lions properly: the alternate colourway reads clearly from the upper rows and from across a sports bar.

      ClubDetroit Lions (NFL football)
      Gender / fitUnisex (men's and women's)
      VersionGame fan build
      ColourwayBlack - Alternate
      SizesMultiple sizes available - see the size options on this page

      Built for men and women: comfortable armholes, a neckline that does not rub, and a length that sits right.

      Who it is for

      The NFL buyer is usually buying for a reason rather than browsing: Sunday fixtures, a tailgate, a gift for someone who already has three. What settles the choice is whether the shirt looks right on the body and survives regular washing, not a long specification list.

      Size adviceTake your usual t-shirt size; size up once for a looser layered look.

      Details that matter when choosing this Detroit Lions jersey

      Everything starts with the Detroit Lions Game jersey - it sets the colourway, the fit and the look the rest of the range is built around.

      Start from the Detroit Lions jersey and the rest of the choice narrows quickly: Detroit Lions colours, alternate styling, and a cut that works with jeans as easily as with shorts.

      Shoppers filtering by NFL football jersey will find this alongside every other NFL football top we stock, in the same sizes and the same fit.

      The Lions match day jersey buyer is usually buying for a specific occasion rather than browsing, so the useful details here are the fit, the fabric and how the colour looks outside the stadium.

      The Barry Sanders jersey is the version supporters pick when they want the Barry Sanders look without the player-issue cut - same name and number placement, much easier to wear.

      Build quality

      Seams are finished neatly and the side panels are set in cleanly - no loose threads, no rough edges.

      Stays cool

      Moisture moves through the fabric instead of sitting in it, which keeps things comfortable from the first quarter to the last.

      Player version

      If Barry Sanders is the reason you started following the Detroit Lions, this is the jersey that makes sense.

      Questions people ask about this Detroit Lions jersey

      What material is the Detroit Lions jersey made from?
      A lightweight breathable polyester knit, which is what keeps it comfortable through a full game day and easy to wash.
      What colour is the Detroit Lions game?
      The colourway is black, with alternate accents carrying the contrast.
      How should I care for the Detroit Lions jersey?
      Cold machine wash inside out, hang to dry, and skip the tumble dryer - heat is what cracks printed lettering.
      Where does the Detroit Lions jersey ship from and can I return it?
      It ships from the warehouse listed on this page, and unworn items in the condition they arrived in can be returned within the stated return window.
      Why do people buy Detroit Lions shirts as gifts?
      Football is the easiest league to buy for someone else: the colours are widely recognised, so the size and fit matter far more than picking the right model. This game is cut for men and women - check the size options on this page before ordering. Supporters who watch together tend to buy more than once, so the first shirt is judged on whether it will still look right a year later.
      What exactly is the Detroit Lions Game Jersey in Black?
      It is a fan-version football jersey inspired by the Detroit Lions on-field look, offered in the black alternate colourway. It is made for supporters to wear on game day, at training or as casual clothing, not as match-worn kit.
      Is this a match-worn or player-issue jersey?
      No. This is a game made for supporters: a relaxed cut and everyday comfort rather than the heavy technical build players wear. It follows the Detroit Lions look in colour and layout, but it is not on-field kit.
