#1 Ball State Cardinals Football Jersey - White
Size Guide
FANGEAR PRO SIZE GUIDE
The right size, the first time. All charts below use international standard body measurements — in inches and centimeters — covering jerseys, shorts, jackets, hoodies, and pants across NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, NCAA, and Soccer.
1. HOW TO MEASURE
Take these measurements over a thin t-shirt (never bulky outerwear), standing relaxed. Use a soft measuring tape.
1. Chest (Most Important)
Measure around the fullest part of your chest, directly under the armpits. Keep the tape level with the floor and do not puff your chest out.
2. Waist
Measure around your natural waistline — the narrowest part of your torso, typically above the belly button. Key for shorts and pants.
3. Hips
Stand with feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips and glutes. Crucial for track pants and basketball shorts.
4. Body Length
Measure from the highest point of your shoulder (beside the collar) straight down to where you prefer the bottom hem to rest.
5. Sleeve Length
For long-sleeve kits, windbreakers, and jackets: measure from the shoulder seam down to your wrist with your arm slightly bent.
6. Inseam (Pants)
Measure from the crotch point straight down to your ankle bone along the inner leg seam to find your ideal pant length.
2. FIT BY LEAGUE (OVERVIEW)
Each major sports league designs jerseys with its own distinct traditional silhouette.
| League | Cut Style | How It Should Feel & Sizing Advice |
|---|---|---|
| Soccer | Athletic / Supporter Slim | Close to the body. If you are between sizes or prefer a loose Blokecore streetwear look over t-shirts, size up one. |
| NBA Basketball | Standard / Elongated | Relaxed through chest and torso with an extended back hem. True to size; size up if layering over hoodies. |
| NFL Football | Roomy / Boxy Tailgate Cut | Classic oversized game-day cut with broader shoulders. Plenty of room for hoodies. Order true size or size down for a tailored look. |
| MLB Baseball | Full / Button-Front | Relaxed traditional baseball profile with curved droptail hem and extra chest room. True to size; fits easily over base layers. |
| NHL Hockey | Very Loose / Generous | The roomiest cut of all leagues. Wide across the torso with wide sleeves. Never size up; order your normal t-shirt size. |
