The North Carolina Tar Heels supporter build, in plain terms
The North Carolina Tar Heels fan version has no player-issue stiffness and no display-case pricing: it is built around the way a shirt is actually used - washed weekly, worn to class, worn to the ground, worn on a Tuesday.
The softball build
For the North Carolina Tar Heels build, softball shirts follow the baseball pattern - a fuller body and a straight hem - graded for the women's cut rather than scaled from the men's block.
Graded down, not scaled down
On the North Carolina Tar Heels design, scaling an adult block by a percentage gives a child a shirt with the wrong sleeve and a collar that gapes.
Which version this is
The fan version tier is the honest middle of the range: close enough to the on-field design to read correctly from the stands, comfortable enough to keep on afterwards.
The grade runs true for young fans. Between two sizes, the larger one gives a relaxed fit and the smaller one sits close to the body.
