Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Sizing question for those with both Voler and PI Jerseys

I'm in the market for a new jersey and some of the PI ones are catching my eyes.

I currently only have Voler jerseys. I wear a medium in the club fit and I'm happy with the way they fit.

I'm looking at the Attack and Pursuit jerseys. One is listed as a semi-form fit and the other as a form fit.

For those that have both Voler and PI jerseys, how does the sizing between the two match up? Based on the PI size chart, I'm probably a between a small and a medium, so I was kind of hoping to get a comparison to Voler.

FWIW, I'm 5'10, 140 lbs.

Thanks in advance.

PI form fit is similar to Voler's race fit.
PI semi-form-fit is similar to Voler's club fit (similar chest and shoulders to the race fit, but enough space for a beer belly).
You probably don't want to go down to a small or the length would be too short.

I have several of PI-s top line jerseys. I am very unimpressed. The zippers are weak, the jerseys don't breathe as well as the CRAFT jerseys that I have. I can go on and on. These jerseys sell above USD200/jersey. So my recommendation is, if you like Voler, stick with it. If you want to try something else, go to your nearest Trek LBS and buy whatever Craft team radio shack stuff they have on sale for USD30/jersey.

You probably wear a pearl izumi form fit small. I'm 5'8, 150 lbs and I wear form fit small
