Hockey Jersey Size Guide
Hockey jerseys are famous for their roomy cut. They are designed to fit over shoulder pads on the ice, which is why a jersey in your usual t-shirt size can feel huge. If you are buying one to wear to the game, a watch party or as everyday streetwear, this hockey jersey size guide will help you find a fit that looks right.
Why Hockey Jerseys Fit Differently
A traditional hockey jersey has a wide body, dropped shoulders and long, full sleeves. Even fashion and fan jerseys keep that generous shape so they look authentic. That means the size you choose depends on how you plan to wear it:
- Everyday or fan wear: you want a relaxed fit that does not swallow you.
- Layered over a hoodie: you need extra room in the chest and arms.
- Oversized streetwear look: you want a longer, boxier silhouette.
How Should a Hockey Jersey Fit?
- Chest: loose, with room to move your arms freely.
- Shoulders: the seams drop slightly past your shoulders, which is normal for this style.
- Length: the hem lands around your hips to upper thigh.
- Sleeves: long and full, ending at or just past your wrist.
How to Choose Your Size
- Lay a hockey jersey or sweatshirt you like flat and measure the chest from armpit to armpit, then double it.
- Measure the length from the back of the collar to the hem.
- Compare both numbers with the hockey jersey chart on our size chart.
- If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size for everyday wear and the larger size if you plan to layer.

Sizing for Men
Most men wear their usual t-shirt size for a classic fan fit. If you have a slim build or want a cleaner look, size down once. If you want to layer over a hoodie, stay with your usual size.
Sizing for Women
Hockey jerseys are unisex, so they run big on most women. Go one or two sizes down from your usual size for a fitted look, or keep your usual size for an oversized jersey to wear with leggings or bike shorts. Belting or knotting the hem is another easy way to add shape.
Sizing for Kids
Kids’ hockey jerseys are available from toddler 2T to youth XL. Measurements and suggested heights are listed on our size chart. Many parents size up one size so the jersey lasts a little longer.
Styling Tips
- Wear it with straight-leg jeans or joggers and chunky sneakers for a sporty streetwear look.
- Add a beanie or a trucker hat for game day.
- Keep the rest of the outfit simple so the jersey is the focus.
