An athletic jersey having at least one sleeve with a shoulder panel and sleeve panel, and a back panel having first and second back panel lateral edges mated and joined to the sleeve panel of the sleeve, and a front panel having first and second front panel side edges mated and joined to the shoulder panel of the sleeve as well as a collar edge mated and joined to the shoulder panel. The jersey has side panels mated and joined between the front panel and back panel, such that the side panel comprises a beam element and an arm element extending from the beam element and having a substantially triangular shape extending from the beam element forward about the triceps of the jersey to form the sleeve in combination with the shoulder panel and sleeve panel, substantially eliminating loose fabric about the wearer's underarm.
