Was going to buy some jerseys on Ralph Lauren and J crew sale. I'm a 172 cm tall guy and when I mearsured my shirt it had 32 inches long sleeves. Both Ralph Lauren and J crew size charts was totally same. Would I be safe if I bought the size small from both of them?

What do you think? Someone must be familiar with J crew and Ralph Lauren sizes.

I usually just order stuff in two sizes and return the ones that don't fit...return process is pretty easy these days and the out of pocket cost of shipping a box back ($7-10) is a small price to pay to get the right size if you are buying a number of items.
