Thanks guys, how do yall prefer to base your sizing? Im a 43” chest and typically like a 22.5 to 23.5” p2p and 18.5” to 19.25” shoulder. This one seemed to check those boxes , if on the high end for both and wow did i swing and miss. Is there “gold standard measurement you live by?

@mmmargeologist I do have a 40.5" chest and usually choose 41-42" (2x pit to pit) as I prefer rather tight fit (depending on jacket style). In your case approx. 44-45" could fit depending on what you want to wear underneath the jacket (I usually wear rather thin shirts underneath such kind of jackets). If I was you I would ask the shop for more detailed measurement of for their recommendation (you can simply tell them your body measurements and if you prefer tight or loose fit...that's how I started with my first MTO jacket).
Cheers,
Robbie
