Tulane Green Wave Jersey Sizing: Buying for Yourself or a Gift

Tulane Green Wave City Edition jersey, Jake Retzlaff number 12

To size a Tulane Green Wave jersey, measure a shirt that already fits the wearer well, then compare that measurement with the size chart on the product page rather than relying on the letter on their usual T-shirt. That one habit solves most sizing problems, whether you shop for yourself or for someone else on topdesignfan’s Tulane Green Wave collection. Below is a measuring method that takes two minutes, plus notes for buying across men’s, women’s and youth options when the listing offers them.

What this page carries

Before sizing, know what you’re choosing from. This site lists Tulane designs in the 2025 Vapor Limited line and older 2022 listings only. Older 2022 listings carry a championship label in the store’s wording, which is product naming and not a team fact. Name-and-number options include a Jake Retzlaff #12 listing, a Michael Pratt #7 listing and a Dorian Williams #2 listing, and there are no-name backs such as NOLA #504, Green Wave #25 and Team #1.

The two-minute measuring method

  1. Pick a reference shirt. Choose a short-sleeve top the wearer likes the fit of, ideally one they wear over other layers on game day if that’s how they’ll use the jersey.
  2. Lay it flat. Smooth it on a table with the front facing up.
  3. Measure chest width. Measure straight across, armpit to armpit. Write it down.
  4. Measure length. Measure from the highest point of the shoulder, beside the collar, down to the hem.
  5. Compare. Open the size chart on the product page and find the size whose numbers sit closest to yours. If you land between two sizes, choose based on how loose the wearer likes things.

Men’s, women’s and youth

Size ranges and cuts depend on the listing, so check what each product page offers before you choose. A few things to keep in mind as you compare:

  • Don’t assume sizes line up across cuts. A medium in one cut is not automatically a medium in another. Always use the chart for the exact option you select.
  • For kids, measure the kid, not the age. Children of the same age vary a lot. A reference shirt beats a guess.
  • At the top of the range, check length as well as chest, since taller wearers often run out of length before width.

Buying a jersey for someone else

Gifts are where sizing goes wrong most often, because you can’t try anything on. Some low-key ways to get it right:

  • Borrow a shirt for ten minutes. Measure one from their closet and put it back.
  • Ask a household member. A partner or roommate can measure a shirt without spoiling the surprise.
  • Check the tag size of a favorite tee, then still compare measurements, since brands differ.
  • When unsure, size for comfort. Most fans wear a football jersey loose, often over a hoodie when it’s cold.

Back design and gift choice

If you don’t know the recipient’s favorite name, a no-name back like NOLA #504 or Team #1 avoids the guesswork. If you do know it, a name listing makes the gift feel personal. Either way, open the listing to confirm which line and color the design comes in.

Custom names and numbers

No custom ordering steps were captured for this site, so follow the instructions on the product page if you want your own lettering. Confirm the size first; lettering is the final step.

Fabric and care

These jerseys are listed as 100% recycled polyester with a tumble dry low instruction. For anything beyond that, follow the care label in the shirt. Drying on low as directed helps the size you picked stay the size you picked.

Quick checklist

  • Reference shirt measured: chest and length
  • Size chart compared for the exact cut
  • Line and color confirmed on the listing
  • Back design chosen: name, place code or team label

Measure once, compare with the chart, and a Tulane football jersey bought as a gift should fit the first time it’s unwrapped.
