Also do the swingmans and authentics fit the same? I heard these new ones seem to fit way different so I'm definitely going to need to go try one on.

I was stuck between the authentic and swingman, I just went with the swingman. Authentics are way too expensive and NBA store never has sales so f it. Authentic is $260 and swingman is $80-$90, that's a $170 difference. I copped two swingmans during footlocker's 50% off. 

i think retail was 120-140 when i bought a nike vince carter authentic............so they're basically twice the cost now

pretty sad if you ask me

Feel like I should've got one as a 48 and one a 44 tho... oh well.

Height/Weight?

I want to buy the Bulls now, but I'm frustrated about not knowing how they fit.

Cosby's in New York does customization.  Also, depending on the team, you may be able to get a custom job from the place that does the team issued jerseys (if you can find out what place does it).  
There are random places that do customization, but they're not as reliable and don't have the resources of a place like EPS, you'll be better off waiting a couple extra weeks to get it done right.

But I'm looking into a pre rev30 Lakers blank authentic and its a 44, unsure of how it might fit since I feel like adidas runs bigger? Any help would be appreciated, thanks

For Champion, get a size 44, size 40's will be too short for you. 
For Nike, you could probably do either the 40 or 44, the 44 is bigger than a Champion 44 but its not huge.  Usually, size 40 Nike jerseys are harder to find than 44's, so keep that in mind.
For Adidas, if you are sure you don't want them baggy, go for a 40.  I've worn size 44's (when I was 5 ft 10, 175 lbs) and I had breathing room.

 

[stillin729]

dude I could wear a 36 in M&N BB jerseys most of the time and it looks nothing like those jerseys up above

 

[Hahahaha]

Won an authentic Carmelo about a week ago for $140, just got an email from the cat saying he's giving me a refund cause of some +++!. I'm tight, I can't pay $250 for these weak *@% jerseys.

Someone broke it down nicely on JC.

"Tailor fit = go up one size to fit just right. Go up 2 szs if wear jackts looser."

So going by that I'll need a 44. But the one I really want (Bulls) is already out in that size.

NBA players dont wear em that slim either b...

size 44 is good money if u 5'10....maybe even a size 48 depending on what manufacturer we talkin bout.

 

[DYNAMICS]

Heard there's a 15 or 20% code for the NBA Store (online) floating around. Can't find anything supporting that so far...

 

[dhdSupreme]

Has anyone tailored a Rev30 authentic jersey to fit more slim and shorter? I'm a 40 in Champion and I know the adidas 44 are huge... Has anyone done this?

[robpzee612]

^Hey,I was bidding on the same jersey dammit.

Oh well,might scoop up a different jersey instead.

this dude though....

what derrick rose is wearing looks more like an undershirt, with the spandex

 

[eyanks]

someone 5 ft 9 or taller needs to post pics of themselves wearing a sz 40 Champion jersey or a sz 36 Nike, I just don't see how they can fit comfortably. hopefully they don't fit like those champion replicas on the previous page cuz those dudes look foolish.

and what happens if you wear them tight like that and you gain 10 lbs?

IMO if you 5'9Ft -6'2 you should be wearing a 49. Them jerseys now a days are TOO baggy, I agree with Z. 40 is perfect. unless your fat you need a 44 or 48.
like they said up there baggy aint in anymore, but at the same time it doesn't mean that you are suppose to wear them tight but fitted is perfect.

im 5'10 and this is a size 40. 

but if we are talking older jerseys, then thats a whole new ball game

 

[stillin729]

Melo wears his jersey how I like to wear mine...fitted but not tight or short
