Which collar, which size, which sleeve.
Every collar CoolWick makes, who it suits, and how to pick a size that fits the first time. The size chart has the measurements; this page tells you what to do with them.
The collars
Quick Ship and Fast Track jerseys come with the sash zip collar. Semi-Custom jerseys let you choose any of these on the product page.
Sash Zip
A sash collar with a short zip at the front. Sits flat, opens up when you get warm, and gives you the collar most tournament dress codes ask for.
- On every Quick Ship and Fast Track jersey
- Also an option on Semi-Custom
- Collared: tournament friendly
Crew Neck and V-Neck
A round neck or a V opening with no collar, the closest thing to a performance t-shirt. The most relaxed fit of the group, for leagues that do not require a collar.
- Semi-Custom only
- No collar: check your rulebook
- Short, long or sleeveless
V-Collar
The V opening with a fold-over collar added. The look of a V-neck that still satisfies a collar rule.
- Semi-Custom only
- Collared: tournament friendly
Polo Zip
A traditional polo collar with a zip placket instead of buttons. The most conventional look on the lanes.
- Semi-Custom only
- Collared: tournament friendly
Sash Polo
The sash collar without the zip, for bowlers who like the sash look with a clean front.
- Semi-Custom only
- Collared: tournament friendly
Button Polo and Button Down
A polo collar with a buttoned placket, or a full button-down front for the classic bowling shirt silhouette on performance fabric.
- Semi-Custom only
- Collared: tournament friendly
How to pick your size
Measure your chest
Wrap a tape around the fullest part of your chest, under the arms, tape level and snug but not tight. Write the number down.
Compare it with the chart
Open the size chart and find the size whose chest range includes your number. Between two sizes? Bowlers who want room to swing go up; bowlers who want a trimmer look stay down.
Pick your shirt type
On Semi-Custom jerseys, choose Youth, Women or Men under Shirt Type before you pick the size; each has its own chart. Quick Ship and Fast Track are men’s sizes.
Fit questions
Do you make big and tall sizes?
Yes. Quick Ship jerseys run men’s S to 5X. Many Semi-Custom designs run to 6X, 7X and 8X; the product page shows the exact range for that design. Larger sizes cost a little more.
Do you make women’s and youth sizes?
Every Semi-Custom design comes in youth, women’s and men’s sizes. Choose the shirt type on the product page. See women’s bowling jerseys.
Short sleeve or long sleeve?
Quick Ship and Fast Track jerseys are short sleeve. Semi-Custom jerseys offer short sleeve, long sleeve and sleeveless.
Which collar do tournaments require?
Dress codes vary by event, and most ask for a collar. Sash Zip, V-Collar, Polo Zip, Sash Polo, Button Polo and Button Down all have one; Crew Neck and V-Neck do not. Check your event’s rules before you order.
What if the size is wrong?
If we make the wrong size from your order, we exchange it free. If you ordered a size that turned out wrong, Quick Ship jerseys can be returned within 60 days; customized jerseys are made to your order, so measure first and ask us if you are between sizes.
Bowling jersey collars, sizes and sleeves
CoolWick bowling jerseys come in six collar styles: the sash zip collar on every Quick Ship and Fast Track jersey, and crew neck, V-neck, V-collar, polo zip, sash polo and button polo or button down on Semi-Custom jerseys. Collared styles satisfy the dress code at most tournaments; crew and V-neck are the choice for leagues that do not require one.
Sizes run youth, women’s and men’s, with Quick Ship in men’s S to 5X and many Semi-Custom designs up to 8X. Measure your chest, compare it with the size chart, and if we make the wrong size from your order we exchange it free.
