I just got a Medium Thor AC Jersey for christmas. http://www.cyclegear.com/images/2910-0390_310x289.jpg My problem is I don't know where my uncle got it because he lives out of state and it seems a little too big. I don't know if 5'4" is too short for a medium jersey, and I know it's supposed to be loose, but will it shrink a little in the wash? Thanks for the help

i never could get mine to shrink

but if your 5'4, you might wanna go with a small, cause im 5'6 and a small just fits me (its still a lil baggy)

i have a Fly shirt and im 5 2 and it fits me fine, just like a normal shirt so its wierd that ur 5'4" and the other guy is 5'6" and is worried about Mediums...hmm idk

but yeah its fine to put it in the dryer. i have 2, a fox and fly and my mom has washed and put both in the dryer and nothing happened. it shrunk maybe a little but not like an inch, maybe a half an inch or something like that

As long as they're a polyester jersey (most are) they won't shrink.
Most are oversized for pads UNDER the jersey. Air dry.

Thanks, I think I'm gonna try going to another dealership and see if they will let me trade it in and get me a smaller size. If not I'm S.O.L. Thanks for the help

Don't ask me how, I'm just good like that. Truthfully I'm never gonna wear it and don't think I'd ever need it anyway. I'm just gonna see if I can get a smaller size, if not I'll probally just buy another smaller jersey and maybe the under armor in case I feel like going crazy. I don't think I'm gonna be crashing the new Polaris Outlaw I'm gettin in a month or so anyways so lets hope I don't need it!
