What sizing advice would you give to someone considering The Supershirt?

I wouldn't want my Supershirt to be too baggy as I want to know the armour is where it's meant to be. At first I thought the arms were a little long but after riding for a week I realised they were comfortable to use with the thumb loops with my arms stretched forward on the handlebars.

How do you wear The Supershirt with other Adventure Spec layers?

The only time I don't wear The Supershirt now is if I'm just popping out on a quick errand. For everything else it's the first thing I put on. It's surprising how much it's changed the way I dress on the bike, and how reassuring it feels riding in it.

The thumb loops are designed to stop the sleeve from moving up your arm. The shirt can feel a little long but when you realise what the loops are for it all makes sense. 

How do you wear The Supershirt with other Adventure Spec layers?

I wear this with every single combination of the layering system, it's been perfect with them all. Mostly I wear it with the Linesman, and ditch the arms if it gets hot.

Your chest (under armpit) circumference (A) - 104cm

Your hip circumference (B) - 100cm

What sizing advice would you give to someone considering The Supershirt?

The Supershirt is a relatively snug fit and is ideally worn with one or two base layers.

How do you wear The Supershirt with other Adventure Spec layers?

I wear a long or short sleeved AS base layer underneath the Supershirt and, if its cold a Baltic Hybrid jacket over the top. Then a Linesman jacket, without armour over the top or a size L Trailhead Jersey on top in warmer weather.

The Trailhead Jersey can also be worn under the Linesman (and over the Supershirt) if I really want more layers for warmth.

Use your ordinary clothes size for ordering this gives you a little room if your weight is not constant.

How do you wear The Supershirt with other Adventure Spec layers?

I wear this under the Mongolia jacket. Perfect breathable combo. The sizing of the Supershirt is a snug fit allowing you to wear layers over the top. I have also used the Supershirt as a stand alone item with no other layers in warm weather. The sizing and fit was perfect. Really like the flexible material and liquid/smell repelling qualities.
