Sizing Information
These jackets are sold in “alpha” sizes. FirstGear offers sizing information for this product which is very typical for any brand jacket as follows:
| Size | S | M | L | XL | 2XL | 3XL | 4XL |
| Max Chest | 34-36 | 38-40 | 42-44 | 46-48 | 50-52 | 54-56 | 58-60 |
| Max Waist | 28-30 | 32-34 | 36-38 | 40-42 | 44-46 | 48-50 | 52-54 |
But, we found them to consistently run large both in fit and the sizing information that is given by FirstGear. Our model in this picture is would normally wear a medium and this medium jacket, was large overall. We recommend that you buy your jacket one size smaller than you would normally wear.
Tall sizes: FirstGear offers this jacket in talls, which provides a rarely found option for tall people. The body and sleeves of the jackets are 1 1/2 to 2 inches taller than the “standard” cut jackets. If you normally have to buy “talls” then these should work for you.
