Anyone actually got the T shirt yet?

The question is - do they fit well? Are they generously sized or quite tight? Being quite generously sized myself I need to know whether to go for the largest ladies or (bother it!) for the mens sizes.

Thanks.

Of course August Bank Holiday, post will be slow. I should have thought of that.

I haven't ordered mine as yet, but would be very interested in the answer to this! I was wondering this very same thing this morning when I was looking at the sizing.

I'm so disappointed that the sizing means I have to order the largest size- never been in largest size in my life! Are all compete-runners customers flat-chested!!! Mine hasn't arrived yet but any day now. Hope it fits or I'll have to pass it on to husband and get male-sized one for me!

I was also surprised by the sizing and am going to cut the label out of my wife's before giving it to her, rather than risk upsetting her, she's never been in that big a size, even before she lost 3 stone. They haven't arrived yet, expecting them this week, will report back after we've got them

If it helps I contacted the company on behalf of us ladies - you need to measure under the armpits and across the chest - not bust size. The delivery is free but if you need to return for any reason it will cost £1.50

So the chest size is actually the under bust size? That sounds a bit better, but I wonder if ample busts are taken into account? The difference between my under and over bust sizes is around 8" and so often clothes seem to be made for those with much less chest than me (have always had to wear at least size 18 in tops/dresses, even when a skinny teen).

Hang on, just read that again. Above bust size? I'm confused. :-/

I like the cut of the ladies tee but prefer the style of the mens tee. Will wait with baited breath to hear how these actually measure up...

Hi all..

Just to clarify, we do not charge £1.50 for returning the Tee, but if you are wanting a different size or colour as a replacement we do charge the postage costs for the exchanged item being sent.

If you decide that you are not happy with the tee at all you are entitled to a full refund as long as the item is sent back undamaged, this is standard practice under the rules for long distance selling.

Thank you to those who have already placed your orders. The items are now in the print queue and email notifications will be sent to you to confirm they have been despatched.

Thanks everyone for the info. I was having a look yesterday and was put off by the sizing! Its hard enough to breath at the best of times without a tight t-shirt! Never thought of ordering one of the mens ones. I will wait and see what people have to say once they arrive. Thanks to completerunner too, I tried looking on the website for returns info but couldn't see any and didn't want to spend so much money on something that was too small!
