With 42 chest, 38 waist plus thermals and maybe fleece under, do you suggest Large or XL? Need to move easily while backpacking.

I'm 48,38 and can do a base layer and a thin fleece but not much more with an xl.

Well, this is just a guess but I would say XL sounds better for you. You need to try it on before buying it!

I'm a40 chest with short arms. I ordered the medium and find it perfect in winter with 3 layers, but without the liner it's way too big for my frame in the summer. I'm in VA, and travel by bike, so my temp range is anywhere from 20Fahrenheit to 90 degrees. I wish I had been able to try the small, but I'm usually between sizes anyway. I'm not sure if that answers your question. I would guess that a medium would fit up to a42 chest size, with the liner. Amazon and Milwaukee both have excellent return policies, regardless.

I am a 54 regular in a jacket size and I fit comfortably in the XL, however I do not wear on the outside of my regular hunting clothes. Depending on the region your hunting in really dictates where your comfort level will be. I wear a long sleeve tee and thermal bottoms under my HECS to help wick perspiration in warmer weather. Beyond that you can layer as the weather in your region dictates. Happy Hunting.

I'd go with the 2xl, it will be big enough and you'll be able to wear a sweater or jacket under it without losing comfort if needed.

I am 6'3" and have a 46" chest and a 36" waist, I bought the XL. It fits well. I can wear a polarfleece hoodie underneath, but it is snug. There are velcro straps on the side, but only to make it 1-2" smaller. XXL would have been better for me to add layers underneath, weather in Canada in the Rockies is so much cooler than south of the border . The arms might be snug, but if you're removing the sleeves...I think it looks cool without sleeves.

I'm 6'0, 185 and like my clothing fitted. I find the large to be bulky. I can fit a base layer, shirt, and down jacket underneath with a little too much room.

Hi there, you are almost the same size/weight of me, I bought an XL, it is only a little bit loose (mentioning that I only wear one T-shirt underneath as I live in an area with very hot weather) so with that being said, if you live in a cold place and planning to wear more than just one t-shirt underneath this jacket, then the XL is the right choice for you I think.

I bought a large and my pack is 80L. I think they only offered large when I bought mine though. My pack fits in the large with extra room. If you were looking for a more snug fit a medium might be the better option. I would just buy both and return the size you don't want after you try both of them out. Good luck

I'd get a large. You can't make a small bag big; can make a big bag small. My pack is 85L and I have a large. Fully packed, the pack fits in the bag good.

That should be good, unless you want it to fit skin tight. I have a 48 inch chest and wear a 36 waist pant and I had to get an XL to fit my shoulders. It is still snug enough.

yes. It is a baggy fit. My husband wears XL. The 44 was too tight in shoulders by good at waist. The 46 is good at shoulders (he is broad), and skinny waisted.The waist is big, but not terribly big. The 48 would be best if you are a "big" guy.

Yes, I'm a 38 waist, 42" chest. Should fit up to about 50" chest. keep in mind, the strap goes across your mid section, not your pants waistline.

I think a large would be the minimum. Also depends on how much gear you have. I would probably select an extra large to be safe.

I'm 5'8", 175, 42" chest and bought a large. The sleeves are a little long on me but the rest fits like a glove. I'd say a large for a snug fit or an XL if you like some room. IMO

If you are closer to size 42 then I would go with large if you right at 40 then you could go either way.

x-large should be ok. take 44 (i think) and it fits fine with a little room to spare...

The large would be your best fit for a while (it still fits my 32" son) but the XL won't be too huge if you want to use it for even longer. My son can't walk in it too easily but it's not for walking, it's for sleeping!
