DropkickMurphy8 Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 Alright guys, I'm bored and randomly looking at jerseys and I was wondering how I could expect an older Nike jersey (98 and 02 Olympics) to fit. I'm trying to figure out if a 44 would fit me, but I really have nothing to compare to since I haven't tried on an authentic of any kind since the weight loss. If I had to guess, I'd probably be a 50 in EDGE and I'm sure I could get into a 46 in a 6100 cut without a problem, same would probably go for Starter and the older CCM jerseys. Would a 44 Nike fit me, or would I need something bigger? I'm like 5'10 160ish, and the 5'10 part might be pushing it a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 I wear the exact same sizes you mentioned- Edge 50, and 46 in 6100's, Starters & older CCM's. A Nike 44 fits me quite amply, about the same as the 46's listed above. If you're down to 160, I would imagine a Nike 44 would probably fit you. If I'm not mistaken, I don't think Nikes came in 46's, so the next bigger size would be a 48, which I know wouldn't fit me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DropkickMurphy8 Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 Nice, thanks. That's something to look into then, since I've seen a few jerseys I'd wear pop up but I've never been sure if I could fit in them.

LAK74 Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 Here are a few measurements from a Nike 44 of mine (I'd feel rather bad if you bought one and it didn't fit): 24" width, 65" wingspan (from top tip of one sleeve to the other), and 32" from back collar down to hem.

DropkickMurphy8 Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 That actually sounds like it would be fine, the length might be a little questionable but I have a few large replicas that are about 24" pit to pit and I have some room in them. Thanks for the measurements, I'm actually gonna go to a couple of local places today and see if there's anything worth buying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 You're welcome. Btw I should add that the measurements are for a late 90's NHL jersey; I don't know if the Olympics ones fit differently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
