Pit to Pit - this measurement is taken from the centre of one armpit to the other, across the chest with the jersey laid flat.

Top to Bottom - this will always be from the very top of the collar to the very bottom hem, we provide measurements for both the front and back, always taken with the jersey laid flat.
