The jackets seem to run the same in sizes. I would say if you wear medium you should buy medium.

The XL fit me slightly big with very long arms. Looks OK with sleeves rolled up.

Yes take same size if you like it fit but if you like it to be little wider then take bigger

I'm a big guy usually wear a 3x shirt I tried on a bunch of jackets at the local shops and they were all tight so I decided a 4x would be right. My 4x is a little snug but I believe they are supposed to be so they won't bunch up if you wreck if you wear a M shirt I would suggest a large jacket if nothing else if it don't fit right I'm pretty sure they would let you return and exchange

My son is 5'5" and about 15 pounds heavier than yours, and I bought him a Large which he has worn all winter. He had tried them on at a local store first, the Medium was tight in the shoulders for him, and I wanted it to last at least 2 winters. I figured we'd have to roll the sleeve cuffs back a little, but they were fine as-is. Super-warm jacket, great purchase.

I will answer your question with another question; how do you want the jacket to fit? I am 5'8" and 180 lbs. I ordered a Large because I got the impression that the jacket ran small. I received it, and it was way too big. If you want the jacket to fit you nice and snug, get the size you usually get in clothing. I usually get a Medium and should have gotten a medium.

I purchased 2 of thee items, it was for my son a medium and small but I looked at the tag and it says size 3 and size 4 so I assume the medium was the 4. but the small would fit, because the jacket is kinda big, so the medium would fit u but a little bigger...So you are safe with the small.because the jacket would be a pefect fit for your size

I usually wear large jackets and this one was quite snug on me. I would suggest a size up on your usual size if you plan on wearing a thick layer underneath it.

Your body type is the same as mine. I got the medium and loved it. It has to be super tight or otherwise water gets in there and renders it useless for temperature regulation.

From having tried the Medium and Large versions of this vest, I would say the sizes that Domke uses is the same as typical size metrics. I wear a medium shirt, and the medium vest fits me well. Given what it is, it still has plenty of room to fit over jackets and whatnot, but if I wear just the vest, it has the same looseness as a medium shirt in the chest region (the lower portion is baggier of course). Large was larger than I felt was necessary. The medium works for me even over a winter coat.

It really depends on how and where you carry your weight. I would order one size up from whatever size you would normally use to buy a zip up jacket.

You are right. This was my delima when I wanted to purchase this jacket. I was lucky to find a store near me that sold the jacket and I drove out and tried it on. The jackets in the store all showed S, M, L, XL, XXL, but I was able to correlate the number size to the letter size. I'm a medium and this is about a size 42, 44 is L, 46 is XL, and so and so on. I originally purchased the L and returned it for the M.

I'm a woman who usually takes about a size 12-14 in regular clothes. I've been wearing a Medium size vest for about 4 years now, with a polo shirt underneath, and it's quite comfortable. The Small would be way too small for me. Large would be ok if I was wearing it in very cold weather and wanted a lot of layers underneath. The vest is meant to be roomy but it is in no way fitted. The pockets are its best feature (21-23, depending on how you count). I'm a docent at a major zoo, and we use these vests as part of our uniforms. I liked them so much that I bought one of my own for vacations. The many pockets mean that I don't have to carry a purse or bag when I travel. Hope this helps.

I too got hung up on the sizing chart and decided to disregard the chart. I normally wear somewhere between size small and medium. After trying on both sizes, I went with the small. Don't plan to put several layers between you and the coat or you won't feel the heat. Yesterday's high was 25 degrees and I was outside all day with the jacket and a t-shirt under it (and a spare battery!).

It would be best to contact the seller . I ordered mine based on my blouse size and was way off. I returned it and the sales lady was very helpful in getting me into the proper size. They actually sent me two jackets of different sizes to allow me to choose the best fit. I originally ordered a size 20 and wound up with a size 14. Although I had to pay for the return, they were prompt in crediting my account. I love the jacket.

I would get the medium size if I were you. The arm length is longer than I expected and had to get it tailored to my arm length. The jacket itself is heavy duty though. I really like it!

I would go with the XL.with your size,it should fit fine over a full body armor. Just my opinion... The jacket itself has good protection. Good luck and happy riding. Burn rubber not your soul!

I'd go for the large if I were you. Only thing I don't care for is the fact that it's a task taking the jacket off but I'm like you, I don't care for the bulky look. The down side to having a snug fit with this jacket is that the stitching comes loose and you'll start seeing holes around the underarms and neck.

To me it's very large. I'm on the short side and petite in build so I thought I'd take my chances thinking it might be a "small" fitting large but to me it's for somebody that weighs at least 30-50lbs more than me. The arm area is really big so nice to wear over big jacket and sleeves. I'll either give it away or see if I can get a friend to take it in for me.
