I don't own a Highwayman, but the pit to pit measurements that I've seen on sizes 38 and 40 are quite a bit wider than my usual 21-22 inch pit to pit preference which is pretty standard on my size 40 jackets. The quote below is from Thurston Brothers:
The Aero Highwayman runs two sizes too large, so please order this two sizes down from the suit size that you usually wear. For professional sizing, please call us at (206) 550-3545.
Ah, Thurston Brothers - that explains a lot. Not to knock them, but they've got a serious fetish for getting their jackets to fit as tight as is humanly possible if they're looking at them from a motorcycle pov...
I've tried on a Highwayman in a 36, and I'm just the wrong shape for it - slim, up-and-down. I'd probably go with the Premier fit.
Try the Original 59er too.
It's no laughing matter. When I was in the States, I was forced to look in the children's department to find t-shirts that fit! :eeek:lol
Ha! I quite enjoyed being a small/medium over there, as opposed to XL/XXL in Europe, or XXXL/XXXXL in China...
