Just a fyi: 

I noticed these shirts are Junior sizes, therefore will likely run small. 



It looks I would have to order 2 or 3 larger than would normally.   :-\

Wow, no kidding. I didn't realize junior sizes were so tiny. According to the bust measurement I'm between XL and XXL. In women's sizes I take S. I would definitely like some female-specific options though. Men's t-shirts don't really fit me.

it's great to have some input on the selection of the shirts  [thumbsup]

can i suggest we make the logo smaller on the women's line and omit the url?

I'm the only one who likes the sport shirt w/contrasting stitching?   I always knew I had no style.

You have plenty of style Stella.  We just need to catch up to the style leader is all!  [bow_down]

Going by those sizes I too would have to order 3 sizes bigger than normal.  Just like buying ducati brand shirts here in the land downunder.

Oh right!   Thank you for reminding me!    ;D    And yes, buying these Jr. sizes in 3 or 4 times our normal size
is like buying a bathing suit which is typically 3 or 4 sizes larger than casual wear which makes you walk out
of the bathing suit store feeling fatter than what you...(I'm digressing, sorry!)     [roll]

You might not like the sizing on these, but for once in my life (based on the chart above) I can claim to have a LARGE BUST!!  That will never happen again.

Do you think that they list Junior size because it is the only option, or it is in addition to adult?    I ask, because it seems strange that they wouldn't have adult sizes, and they also list plus after junior.  So, I read it like, they have the normal adults sizes, and junion and plus in addition.  Maybe clarify with Speeddog.

good point mitt. I just shot speeddog a PM to ask.

Thanks for the PM, JBubble.

It appears from that chart that there are regular adult sizes as well.
I'll try to get this sorted out soon, and certainly it'll be sorted before we order.

The way I read that chart, the adult sizes listed are men's sizes. Women's sizes would list a bust measurement rather than a chest measurement. Looks like the only women's sizes are junior sizes.

Finally tracked down who owns District Threads.... you'd think they were making WMD's or something.  [roll]

I'll call and 'em get the scoop.

Here's the sizing chart I was told to use.
Go by the *top* chart that is just below all of the ladies pictured in light blue shirts.

http://www.sanmar.com/docs/2009_SizeChart_Ladies-Juniors.pdf

Apparently, District threads is a subsidiary of SanMar.
They said the District Threads shirts are junior cut, so they run small.
Since I'm not familiar with how the ladies sizing usually runs, I couldn't really do an effective interrogation.  :P

If one of you gals wants to call them:

They're on the west coast.

Thanks for getting this Speed! I would feel comfortable ordering now that we have a better idea of what the sizes will be like.  [thumbsup]
