This is what the Hardwood Classics build is made for: the Los Angeles Lakers shirt reads just as well with denim and trainers as it does in the stands.

The regular Men's fit means the usual size just works, and the chart on this page covers youth through adult - the two things a gift-buyer needs to know.
09How to Wear It
On matchday, wear it as the top layer; the rest of the week, it slots into whatever the rotation already is.
The Hardwood Classics build sits at home in both wardrobes: matchday with the crest out front, and the rest of the week under a jacket or over a plain tee. Wear it often, wash it cold, and it keeps its shape.
