Retro shirt sizes

[Duphrates]

The missus is buying me the 72 retro city shirt (year I was born) from the OS, but I'm unsure about the sizes. Does anyone have one? If so in your experience are they what they say, alittle snug or too big. There doesn't seem to be a standard these days, I have T-Shirts which are small, medium and large and they all fit.
I can't find any reference to actual measurements.
Thanks

I`ve got a size L mate and it`s snug as f*ck around the chest(47") shoulders and arms, but then again I`m not a typical footy fan with my training so can`t really compare, if you`re around a 42" chest and in reasonable condition you`ll get away with the large I think, anything below 40" I`d go for a medium.

Ok. I've just measured at around 43-44", so think I will opt for the large. The large isn't particularly long is it; I'm only 5'9 and I don't want it down to my knees.

bit of a tubby then

Haha. I was waiting for that.

Not really. Not got a six pack, but it's not a Party 7 either.

Large should be ok mate, I`m only a few inches taller and it`s a bit shorter than most of the other shirts I have but still fits nice in the length.

They are average as you would expect, bigger than the 07/08 kits, similar if not bigger than this seasons.

Seeing as this thread has come back up, I got the shirt at Xmas in large and it's a perfect fit. Not that this is any use to anyone, unless you know me. Which you won't.
Although, I'll add that I normally take a medium.
So that might help.
Maybe.
