so to things that make me fume...
Futbol kits & size.
Have an old '98 Scotland shirt (FILA), an Everton training top (Nike), and the current blue and black Everton kits (Umbro). All in XL, and all fit just fine. Not too loose, but not nipply.
In South America, I am picking up a shirt for each country I visit, as well as my local club.
Paraguay and Argentina (Adidas) - are loose. way loose. I could pack on another 10 pounds and they'd still be loose.
Chile (Puma) on the other hand, is pretty tight compared to the Everton ones and near second skin compared to the Adidas ones.
Finally found a Guarani kit (Diadora) in XL, bought it... while fine around the stomach, perhaps a tad tighter than the Everton kit, it's no concern. But even with the beanpole frame of John Stones, the freaking shoulders are restrictive tight. Can't imagine how some of the jugadores can fit into it, given their time in the gym.
WTF.
My wife needs to try on everything before buying as women's sizes make zero sense at all.
Men's clothes used to be easy. XL is XL. Should be able to pick it up off the rack buy it knowing how it will rest.
