Sizing and Fit

Where can I find the CourtLife size chart?

All of our size charts are at courtlifesports.com/pages/size-chart. Sweatshirts, quarter zips, mock necks, the Tennis Racquets Sweatshirt Tee, and jackets share one chart, and the Piqué Tee, Polo, Tank, and Skort each have their own. CourtLife apparel uses numbered sizes 0, 1, and 2 instead of XS, S, and M.

What do sizes 0, 1, and 2 mean?

CourtLife apparel uses numbered sizes. Size 0 is XS and fits US 0 to 2. Size 1 is S/M and fits US 4 to 6. Size 2 is M/L and fits US 8 to 10. The Piqué Tee, Polo, Tank, and Skort come in sizes 1 and 2 only. Full charts are at courtlifesports.com/pages/size-chart.

Do you have small, medium, and large sizes?

We use numbered sizes instead of letters. Size 0 is XS and fits US 0 to 2. Size 1 is S/M and fits US 4 to 6. Size 2 is M/L and fits US 8 to 10. Every product page lists the numbered size, and measurements for each style are at courtlifesports.com/pages/size-chart.

Do CourtLife sweatshirts run true to size?

Our sweatshirts are cut relaxed rather than fitted. A size 1 (S/M) is meant for US 4 to 6 and measures 24 inches across and 23 inches long, so it wears loose on purpose and is cut at a length that pairs with a tennis skirt. If you want more room, go up a size. The easiest check is to lay a sweatshirt you own flat, measure it, and compare it to the chart at courtlifesports.com/pages/size-chart.

I am between sizes. Which size should I order?

Each CourtLife size covers a range, so size 1 (S/M) covers US 4 to 6 and size 2 (M/L) covers US 8 to 10. Compare the garment measurements at courtlifesports.com/pages/size-chart to a piece you already own and like the fit of. Still unsure? Email hello@courtlifesports.com with your usual size and the style you want and we will tell you which to pick.

What is the largest size CourtLife makes?

Size 2, which we label M/L and which fits US 8 to 10. That is the top of our current range, though custom team orders and the occasional warehouse sale style come in a size 3. For measurements, see courtlifesports.com/pages/size-chart, or email hello@courtlifesports.com and we will help.

Do you make kids or youth sizes?

We do not currently offer a youth size range. Our smallest size is size 0 (XS), which fits US 0 to 2 and works for many junior players. Outfitting a junior team? Email hello@courtlifesports.com and we will help you sort sizes and set up a group order.

How do I measure myself to pick a CourtLife size?

Our charts list garment measurements, not body measurements. Width is the garment measured flat across, and length runs from the top of the shoulder down. Lay a piece you already own and like the fit of flat, measure its width and length, and match it to the chart at courtlifesports.com/pages/size-chart. Email hello@courtlifesports.com for a second opinion.

What are the CourtLife sweatshirt measurements?

Size 0 (XS) fits US 0 to 2 and measures 23 inches wide by 22 inches long. Size 1 (S/M) fits US 4 to 6 and measures 24 by 23 inches. Size 2 (M/L) fits US 8 to 10 and measures 25 by 24 inches. The same chart applies to quarter zips, mock necks, the Tennis Racquets Sweatshirt Tee, and all three jackets.

Do CourtLife jackets and quarter zips use the same sizing as the sweatshirts?

Yes. The Tennis Jacket, The Golf Jacket, The Pickleball Jacket, and every quarter zip use the same numbered sizes and measurements as our crewnecks: 23 by 22 inches in size 0 (XS), 24 by 23 in size 1 (S/M), and 25 by 24 in size 2 (M/L).

Do the numbered sizes fit the same across every CourtLife style?

The numbers mean the same thing everywhere: 0 is XS, 1 is S/M, and 2 is M/L. The measurements differ by style. A size 1 sweatshirt measures 24 inches wide because it is cut relaxed, while a size 1 Piqué Tee measures 18 inches wide because it is cut closer to the body. Check the chart for the specific style at courtlifesports.com/pages/size-chart.

Which CourtLife styles come in size 0?

Size 0 (XS) is available on our crewneck and quarter zip sweatshirts, the Tennis Racquets Sweatshirt Tee, the Tennis Mock Neck, the Limited Edition Tennis Mock Neck, and all three jackets. The Piqué Tee, Polo, Tank, and Skort start at size 1 (S/M), and so does the Happiest on the Slopes sweatshirt.

What size am I if I wear a US 0 or 2?

Size 0, which we label XS. It is the smallest size we make. Sweatshirts, quarter zips, and jackets measure 23 inches wide by 22 inches long in size 0. The Piqué Tee, Polo, Tank, and Skort start at size 1 (S/M).

What size am I if I wear a US 4 or 6?

Size 1, which we label S/M. Sweatshirts, quarter zips, and jackets measure 24 inches wide by 23 inches long in size 1. The Piqué Tee is 18 by 22, the Piqué Polo is 17 by 22, the Piqué Tank is 19 by 22, and the Piqué Skort has a 12.5 inch flat waist with a 14 inch length.

What size am I if I wear a US 8 or 10?

Size 2, which we label M/L. Sweatshirts, quarter zips, and jackets measure 25 inches wide by 24 inches long in size 2. The Piqué Tee is 19 by 23, the Piqué Polo is 18 by 23, the Piqué Tank is 20 by 23, and the Piqué Skort has a 13.5 inch flat waist with a 14 inch length.
