Soccer Jerseys Sizing Guide: Get the Perfect Team Fit

A great-looking kit is ruined the moment a jersey hangs loose on a sprinting winger or pulls tight across a keeper’s shoulders, so nailing the fit is the most important step when ordering custom soccer jerseys for a squad. A few minutes of measuring per player saves you from exchange hassles and gives everyone a kit they’ll love to play in.

Measure Each Player Individually

Skip the guesswork and use a soft tape on every player. Capture the chest at the fullest point with arms relaxed, the body length from shoulder top to the desired hem, and sleeve length where relevant. Write these numbers next to each name so the order reflects real measurements, not estimates.

Match the Fit to the Position

Soccer players have different fit preferences depending on their role:

• Slim, athletic fit favored by attackers and midfielders for unrestricted movement
• Standard fit for a comfortable, all-around feel
• Slightly roomier fit for goalkeepers who layer and dive frequently

Agree on a team-wide approach so the squad looks consistent while still suiting each player.

Sizing Youth Players

Young players grow fast, but resist the urge to order several sizes too big. An oversized jersey flaps while running and can hinder a player’s touch on the ball. Aim for a season’s worth of room, not two, and re-measure each season rather than reusing last year’s numbers.

Handle Between-Size Players

When a measurement falls between two sizes, let the player’s role and preference decide. A keeper who layers may prefer the larger size, while a quick winger may want the trimmer fit. Note these choices on your roster so each made-to-order jersey suits the individual. Apply the same care to training pants.

Confirm Sizes on the Proof

Before approving production, verify that the size beside each name matches your measured roster. Fixing a size at the proof stage is effortless next to correcting it afterward. For cold-weather warmups, size your pullover hoodies with room to layer. When your measurements are set, build the order from the full selection of custom soccer jerseys.

FAQ

Should keepers order a different size than outfield players? Many keepers prefer a slightly roomier fit for diving and layering, and you can size each player individually.

What if a player measures between two sizes? Choose based on their position and preferred fit, sizing up for mobility or down for a trimmer look.

Can every player have a different size in one design? Yes. Each jersey is made to order, so the squad shares one design while each shirt is cut to the individual.
