What size Hockey Jersey should I buy?

Question

OK I want to buy a jersey not to play in but just to wear. I am 5 foot 3 and I wear a medium in tee shirts.

Answer 1

Medium.  Large might work too but you'll probably be swimming in it.  

Answer 2

Go with a medium, so it is a little big on you. Jerseys that properly fit or are tight don't look right.

Answer 3

A size small for sure.  I'm like 5'4" - 5'5" ish and a small in t-shirts, so trust me (I'm a girl too!) the small size hockey jersey is HUGE.  You could wear a hoodie inside and it's still pretty loose.  Unless you like your jerseys super baggy, don't get a medium.  My friend is around your size and has a medium.  It pretty much looks like a dress that could fit two people inside.  lol

The best suggestion if you're planning to buying it online is to just go to a local store and try the jerseys on there before purchasing it online to see which one fits the best.

Answer 4

I would suggest one that fits.

Or you could buy an XL and use it as an emergency tent if you get lost out in the bush.

Answer 5

Let me give you a little bit of advice.  Unless you are a passionate hockey fan, and plan to wear it to the games, I would advise you NOT to purchase a hockey jersey.

Baggy, floppy hockey jerseys look bad on girls... particularly shorter girls.  So if you're after some sort of fashion statement, I would advise you to look elsewhere.

Answer 6

It all depends on how you want to look. I'm 5 foot 2 and wear medium also. So I always get a medium, because I personally feel that a hockey jersey shouldn't fit as well as a normal shirt, but that's just me. Plus if you get game worn they are going to be huge so its just easier to get use to that.  

Answer 7

I'm 5 feet and I get the smallest adult size I can, which is still a tent on me.  If you want a more fitted look, go for the women's style jerseys.  Personally I don't think they look authentic enough, but alot of people like them and say they're more comfortable.
