I grabbed that shirt too and worried I did the same. What size did you go with?
Size 5 fits like a tent at 6' 218lbs I'll be ~10 lbs lighter by Memorial Day so anyone returning a 4?

I typically take 54/56 and my shirts have ~48'' combined chest/back circumference.

Amateurs. This is why you order multiple sizes :).

I've got a 3 and 4 coming today.

@MGoCrimson - I took a 3 in last year's Soulive shirt so I'll let you know if I keep the 3 and am looking to return the 4.

:shrug: I prefer not to take advantage of the return policy

On second thought, I might just wear it open as an overshirt type deal since it's pretty thick and much warmer than expected

I thought I ordered too small since I didn't go up one for Japanese sizing but guess I was worried for nothing. We'll see for sure tomorrow.

I’m 6’1, 192 lbs and usually wear a Large in general sizing, 16.5/35 for dress shirts. Ordered Soulive in size 4 last year and it fits well.

Are the measurements accurate? If I had ordered that shirt, I would have gone with a 5 based on the website's measurements. Yet, I seem to be a size smaller than Crimson.
I’m a large in this season’s Portuguese Flannel that have a chest measurement of 24.4” and the Soulive is much larger.

OTR shirting isn’t a good fit for me due to a large drop but casual shirts usually work out.

I just figured since @Newcomer can fit a 3 in the Soulive shirts and he's bigger than me, then it's a good thing I didn't size up to that size.

Can anyone comment on or help with sizing the blue TS(S) raglan sleeve parka? Can’t really get a feel based on the measurements vs how it’s supposed to fit. I’m generally a size L in outerwear - 6’2”, 175lbs with a ~40” chest. Thanks in advance.
 

Thanks SF (a new me)
