2026 Football Jersey Size Guide

Find your perfect size before buying. Includes size charts by brand for replica and authentic versions, plus a quick home measurement guide.

How to measure your size in 3 steps

  1. Wear underwear or a thin t-shirt — For the most accurate measurement, wear as little clothing as possible.
  2. Wrap a tape measure around your chest — Pass it at armpit height, across the widest part of your chest. Keep the tape horizontal and snug (not tight).
  3. Note the measurement and check your brand's chart — Find your centimetre reading in the Nike, Adidas or Puma chart. If you are between two sizes in Authentic, size up.

FAQ

Preguntas frecuentes

Should I order my usual size?

Generally yes, but Authentic versions (the ones worn by players) have a more tailored cut. If you are between two sizes in an Authentic version, size up. For replicas, your usual sportswear size works well.

Is there a difference between Nike, Adidas and Puma sizing?

Yes, there can be 1–2 cm difference between brands for the same labelled size. Always check the chest measurement in centimetres and measure yourself before buying.

What is the difference between replica and authentic jerseys?

The replica (also called "fan version" or "stadium") has a looser fit, is lighter and more affordable. The Authentic is the exact version worn by players: athletic tailored fit, heavier fabric and finer finishing details.

Can I return if the size does not fit?

It depends on the store. Amazon and Adidas offer free 30-day returns. JD Sports allows 28 days. FIFA Store only 14 days. Check the policy before buying.

Do kids' jerseys follow the same sizing?

No. Children's jerseys are sized by age or height (e.g. 128 cm / 8 years). Check the children's size chart specific to each store, as it varies between brands.
