Calling all small women

[cabbieman]

Can you help me out with store recommendations please. My 16 year old niece is quite small. She currently wears a xs adult btwin jersey but it's quite loose. She'd like to wear something a bit tighter but the only things she can find are childrens with silly designs. Shes more of a 10-12 age in size. Help.

@Reynard Is petite

Have you looked at some of the Italian brands like Ale, Castelli etc, they come up tiny! Sport pursuit also have loads of deals on lesser known Italian brands (you have to subscribe). Look for racefit or form fit

Otherwise can she get to a decent sized evans? They always seem to have lots of stuff in xs or size 8

Decathlon and even Aldi do plain children ones. I have bought for friend' s child.

Yes, I'm short, but alas I'm not that slim...

I'm a size 10, which works out medium / large when it comes to jerseys from Decathlon for me.

Velovixen have lots of xs women's kit, I'm sure they'd be more than happy to discuss sizing over the phone

DHB jerseys come up very tight particularly across the shoulders and upper arms. I usually have to buy a size up so she might find the xs is small enough

Beautiful Wife is Japanese and small by European standards. She Recommends Uni Qlo sports clothes. The sizes tend to be one down compared to European sizes, so I can wear Uni Qlo medium whereas I have to wear S in Germany.

Stolen Goat are race fit. In fact they have a similar jersey to the shirt in your avatar.
