Size Guide

Everything below is the garment measured flat, not your body. Chest is the full width from armpit seam to armpit seam; length runs from the highest shoulder point down to the hem. Fastest way to get it right: take a jersey that fits you well, measure it the same way, and match the numbers.

Men's / Unisex Big & Tall Authentic (numbered) Youth Preschool / Toddler Women's
Diagram: measure straight across the chest from armpit seam to armpit seam, and from the top of the shoulder down to the hem
ChestLay the jersey flat and measure straight across, from one armpit seam to the other. That full width is the number in the chart - so a chart reading of 44 in means the shirt measures 44 in across, not a 44 in body.
LengthFrom the highest point of the shoulder straight down to the bottom hem, with the jersey laid flat and smoothed out.

Authentic - Numbered Sizing

36 - 64

Some Authentic styles are sold by number instead of letter. The number is the chest width in inches - so a size 48 measures 48 in across. Use the letter column to translate your usual size.

Number Equals Chest (in) Length (in) Chest (cm) Length (cm)
36 XS 36 29 91 74
40 S 40 30 102 76

Preschool & Toddler

2T - 7 / 12M - 24M

Worded by age rather than letter on purpose - this is the range where children grow fastest, so measure a shirt that fits today and match the chest.

01
Cut for comfort

Basketball jerseys are meant to hang loose. If you want a regular, closer fit, order one size below your usual.

02
Between sizes?

Go up. The extra room is how the cut is designed to be worn, and it layers over a hoodie in winter without pulling.

03
Compare, don't guess

Match the numbers to a shirt you already own rather than to your body. Printed names and numbers on the back do not change the fit.

Numbers are taken flat and can vary by roughly 1 in / 2 cm between styles, and Youth overlaps Preschool at age 7 - in that case Youth S is the slightly longer of the two. Still unsure? Contact us with your height, usual size and the jersey you are looking at, and we will tell you which one to take.

Description

Boston Celtics colours in youth cuts, Larry Bird’s name on the back — comfortable enough that it gets worn out, not worn out early.For kids who wear it every day, not twice a season — Larry Bird in Boston Celtics Green, comfortable enough that it gets worn out, not worn out early.

It works for the serious viewer and the casual one — the shirt does not care how closely you are following the standings. The design keeps the Boston Celtics look clean and puts Larry Bird where you would expect. The graphics are applied in layers rather than printed flat, so the numbers sit slightly proud of the mesh.

The material is 100% recycled polyester, and the wicking finish does the heavy lifting on warm evenings. Inside the neck there is taping rather than a tag, so the shirt stays comfortable as long as you keep it on. It photographs well, travels well, and survives being a favourite — the three tests that matter. Nothing about it is precious — which is exactly why it ends up worn the most. It packs down small, which makes it an easy one to take to an away game.

Why it survives the school year

  • Layers without bunchingSits over a long-sleeve tee in cold gyms without riding up at the waist.
  • Matches the grown-upsSame colours as the adult range, so family photos line up.
  • Genuinely kid-sizedCut in youth proportions, not simply a narrow adult shirt.

Things worth knowing

Is it warm enough for winter?

On its own it is a summer-weight shirt; over a long-sleeve tee it works through the colder months.

How does the youth cut differ from the adult one?

Same colours and graphics; the body and sleeves are shorter and the proportions are scaled for smaller frames rather than simply narrowed.

Will it fit next season?

The cut leaves a little room, so it typically lasts through more than a season of growth.
