Smitty dye-sub shirts/body flex

Anyone on here wearing the Smitty dye-sublimated shirts with or without the body flex fabric?

I'm trying to determine if they run true to size... might pull the trigger on a $60 shirt (with the flex fabric) and don't want to order too big or too small. (it would be a custom order, no returns)

Thanks.

If you are remotely between sizes order the smaller one. Saw a bunch last season and 90% of guys went one size smaller. Looking forward to getting a few myself.

No, they do not (at least not the generic one with just the US flag on the left sleeve).

I have a Smitty dye sub basketball shirt with only the USA flag on the left sleeve, and several basketball shirts with wide stripes, so I can attest that Smitty makes shirts with side panels, with wide stripes, and without side panels in black and white stripes. They also have dye sublimated grey striped shirts for states using that option, and have both grey and black/white IAABO sublimated shirts for folks in IAABO states/boards.

The OP is referring to the new body-flex material.

Body flex shirts come with a side panel. If you want a shirt without a side panel, you have to get a regular dye sublimated shirt. Unfortunately, Smitty and the others have not found out a way to market body flex shirts to high school officials yet.

Wrong again......in Pennsylvania they do the body flex for both basketball and football.

Actually, some dealers do offer an upgrade to body flex (Purchase Officials https://purchaseofficials.com/collec...limated-v-neck offers an upgrade to body flex material for both side panel and non-side panel basketball shirts for an additional $20), so you are in luck. I'll check officiallysports.com again, but I haven't found body flex PIAA shirts yet.
