I am 188cm tall, weigh 103kg, and have a chest circumference of about 125-130cm. Size XL fits perfectly. I received the jacket in the color 'camel' instead of 'coyote'. I'm not returning it; I actually like this color more. One star less for the stitching, as if someone drunk got to the machine. A lot of loose threads and uneven seams. The jacket is rather for above-freezing temperatures; I'm not surprised there were so many cases of Americans freezing during the Korean War.

The US Army M51 military parka is a great addition and fits true to size. I really liked the removable lining and the adjustable cuffs. My only complaint is about the very stiff zipper. Overall, I am very satisfied, if only the zipper wasn't so poor.
-
A classic cut in a budget version is a great combination. The jacket is quite well made, comfortable and practical. It will be great for autumn chills. I recommend it.

A useful and practical thing, I was waiting for the opportunity to make such a purchase. Good selection of clothing and equipment, as well as a pleasant number of quality brands. The discount system is reasonable. I have recommended your store, and already several friends have responded.

The jacket is made of decent materials, spacious, but the lining is just a shadow of what you'd find in a real parka – it's very thin!... It might be suitable up to 5 degrees. Definitely not for wind and snow, unless you plan to wear another jacket underneath.
