^ It doesn't get any better than that!

Could someone with a J-100 offer some sizing advise. I have a buco styleking in a 42 and a mccoy A2 again in a 42. I assume that I would also be a 42 in a J-100 however the measurements on superdenim show the the jacket fits big. For those with a J100 could you tell if you sized down or went TTS.
Thanks

^ Giving advice on sizing for the j-100 is really difficult. Little known fact that I got from a guy that works at the RMC Tokyo flagship store last time I was there: since 2013 the sizing for the J-100 has changed. I'm a 40 in the old size/cut, which is smaller and tighter, but closer to a 38 in the new cut. People might end up giving sizing advice to you without knowing that this difference even exists!

Thanks for the heads up, I didn't realise the specs would changed slightly year on year. I was fortunate enough to be in Tokyo to try on the Buco.

The current model J-100 has a broad shoulder, is TTS around in the chest, and trim around the mid-section. I went with a 42 because, although the shoulder is broader than preferable, the chest and mid section are spot on (and I needed the additional sleeve length). My 42 is approx 21.5 P2P. Here is a photo from last night – over a RMC t-shirt (I am 6'0'' and 175 lbs):

Cheers, I think I've decided to go for a 42 as I'm not too far off those stats and if the shoulder is a little wider I can probably layer a ballpark sweat undeneath.
