        I went with a 42. I'm typically a Large in IH. Plenty of room in the body, arms and shoulders are on the skinnier side. Not a problem for me but something to keep on mind for anyone thinking about the jacket.

            Glad you're happy with it VA. Same size as me. But yours is alpaca.

            Indeed, arms are slender. And a touch on the short side, but not bad. With the slender arms but roomy body, I have found that a heavy filson vest or similar works very well underneath for cold temps.

              Yes, my Buco Racing Vest works great underneath which was an unexpected surprise.

                I was actually just thinking the other day that that would probably work too.

                Mine with a couple seasons wear.

                And under the Air Crew Vest.

                    I don't own any IH gear so can't really help there. But I seem to be similar size with Velo Audio and he says above he's an L in IH.

                    The air crew vests are sized large to wear over outerwear. My FW deck jacket above is sz 42 but I wear 40 in the air crew vest, obviously with room since I can still wear it over deck jacket as above. That said, it doesn't look huge over just a shirt or sweater.

                    You might have trouble finding this specific version. This is from two years ago when they first did this pattern in green and eggplant rip-stop. Last year they did the same pattern but with alpaca in khaki and navy jungle cloth. This year they changed it up and released a hoodless "aviators" version in brown and green.

                                    thanks so much for all the info Chiba.  All super helpful and informative.  Will be hunting one at some point.  The green is certainly what i would prefer but won't turn my nose down at a blue with alpaca

                                      I missed one. They also did the aircrew in woodland camo last year.

                                        Saw that also. Not very good looking as much as I like camo.  Blue 38 purchased and on the way. Hopefully sizing works out.

                                          Agree. Not a fan of that camo on that vest. Well done on the navy jungle cloth version. Hope it works out for you.
