Wretched excess!

With the addition of Gary, Scott and Deanna we're done! Then Mrs. Dr. comes along and makes it 26, then Dave and Seema chime in for 27 and 28!

There might be a slight change to the font colour - a black outine on the red - but the actual jersey shouldn't deviate too much from the illustration (sleeve length excepted).

So, the faster we can get this sizing-thing down the faster I can place the order. Again, Rivendell is saying a size or two up (Rivendell, it should be noted, has a fatwa out on fitted cycling clothing), while lanky Dave Kirk from Kirk Frameworks is saying one size up from normal shirts will do it. I'm thinking a little baggier is better for me - who's usually a medium tall or regular large - so I'm going XL. This allows an under-layer and has fitted casual sweater possibilities. If you're looking for a precise - jersey-like - fit, then order spot-on the sizing. Note that Woolistic Merino doesn't bag-out the way old wool jerseys did, so it shouldn't get too floppy.

Get in touch with me with your sizing via this blog or my own (see MattH link on right and go to the E-mail page). Dr. H, could you alert those you know who aren't regular blog readers to check in and size-up?
