You can usually choose the right sportswear size based on your usual clothing size and your height. If a size chart is provided for a specific product, you can compare it with a similar item of clothing you already own that fits you well for a more accurate choice. Sizes and fits can vary between different brands and types of clothing.
At eFlorbal, you can find sportswear from brands such as Floorbee, Oxdog, Unihoc, Zonefloorball, Fat Pipe, Salming, Tempish and other manufacturers. Our range mainly includes sports T-shirts, shorts, sweatshirts, sweatpants and jackets.
How to choose the right size?
When choosing sportswear, you can use your usual clothing size and height as a basic guide. If a clothing size chart is provided for the product, you can compare it with a similar item you already own that fits you well.
The fit and desired amount of looseness are also important. Some models are narrower and more fitted, while others have a looser fit.
What measurements should you take? 📏
If you are not sure about the size, it can also be useful to know your body measurements. The most common ones are:
- height – a basic reference point when choosing a size,
- chest circumference – especially useful for T-shirts, jerseys, sweatshirts and jackets,
- waist circumference – mainly useful for shorts, trousers and sweatpants,
- hip circumference – can be useful when choosing lower-body clothing.
You do not always need to compare these measurements directly with the product chart. If the chart lists the measurements of the garment itself, it is more practical to compare them with the measurements of a similar item of clothing you already own.

Approximate size chart by height
ℹ️ This chart is intended only as an approximate guide. It is not a universal chart that applies to all manufacturers. Sizes may vary depending on the brand, specific product and fit. If a product has its own size chart, it should always take priority over this approximate chart.
ℹ️ If there is no size chart available for the product, contact us. If a manufacturer’s size chart is available, we will be happy to send it to you or help you choose the right size.
How to choose a size according to the chart?
Start with your usual clothing size and also consider your height. If the product includes a size chart with garment measurements, you can compare them with a similar item you already own that fits you well. For example, measure the width of a T-shirt, sweatshirt or jacket and compare it with the measurements in the chart. When choosing, also consider the fit of the clothing and your preferred amount of looseness – some models may be narrower, while others may be looser.
What if there is no size chart for the product?
A size chart is not available for every item of sportswear. In that case, use the type of clothing, brand, your height and body type as a guide. The approximate size chart included in this article can also help.
If you are not sure about the size, contact us before placing your order. If we have a manufacturer’s size chart for the specific item, we will be happy to send it to you and help you choose the size based on your measurements.
Body measurements or garment measurements?
When working with a size chart, always check what the individual values actually represent.
Some charts show recommended body measurements, while others may show the measurements of the garment itself. These values cannot be compared in the same way.
Do sizes vary between brands?
Sizes XS, S, M, L and XL may vary slightly between brands and types of clothing. As a basic guide, we recommend starting with the size you normally wear for sportswear. For example, if you usually wear M, start with that size. Consider another size mainly based on the specific fit, desired looseness or available size chart.
What if I am between two sizes?
If the chart puts you between two different sizes, the choice mainly depends on the fit of the particular item and how you want it to fit.
In general:
- a smaller size may be more suitable if you prefer a more fitted style,
- a larger size may be more suitable if you prefer a looser fit,
- for specially fitted or compression clothing, follow the manufacturer’s recommendation,
- if you are not sure, contact us before placing your order.
How to choose sportswear size for children?
For children's sportswear, the size is most often determined by the child's height. For example, size 128 is generally intended for a child around 128 cm tall, while size 140 is intended for a child approximately 140 cm tall.
Height is a good basic guide, but measurements may vary slightly between brands and fits. If the child is between two sizes, also consider their body shape and whether you want the clothing to have some extra room.
What clothing should you choose according to your sports activity?
The choice of sportswear may vary depending on the sport or activity you do. For floorball, freedom of movement, breathability and quick moisture wicking are particularly important. For workouts at the gym or at home, comfort and material flexibility may be more important.
- 🏑 Floorball
For floorball, lightweight and breathable functional clothing that does not restrict movement is ideal. A sports T-shirt or jersey and shorts are a good choice. During intense training, you will appreciate materials that quickly wick away sweat and dry quickly. For warming up before training or a match, a functional sweatshirt or long-sleeve shirt is particularly suitable, helping to keep your body warm while also wicking away sweat.
- 🏃 Running and fitness training
For running, running preparation and fitness training, choose lightweight clothing that effectively wicks away sweat and allows freedom of movement. In warmer weather, a T-shirt and shorts are suitable, while in colder weather you can layer a T-shirt, sweatshirt and lightweight sports jacket.
Which sportswear material should you choose?
When choosing a material, it mainly depends on what you will use the clothing for. For sports and intensive physical activity, functional synthetic materials such as polyester or polyamide are particularly suitable. They are usually lightweight, dry quickly and effectively wick sweat away from the body. For everyday wear and leisure, cotton may be more comfortable because it is soft and pleasant to wear, but it dries more slowly.
For sportswear, it is therefore practical to choose the material according to the intensity of your activity, the weather and the level of comfort you expect from the clothing.
