I'm kind of torn on this jacket. First a little background. I have an Everlast vest jacket in XL (No longer made) and a NorthFace light jacket 2XL and they fit fine. (I like a slightly baggy fit.) I've had other brands that I could wear XL and they were plenty big. The sizing chart for this jacket says 46-48 Chest XL, and 50-52 2XL. I bought the 2XL, and it was huge, way too huge and for me and I like baggy jackets. I was swimming in this thing. So I went back and ordered a XL and tried it out. The XL fits perfect with empty pockets, until you start to load up. If I kept my wallet in my cargo short leg pocket, I'd probably be fine. However, add a small OWB firearm, and things don't go to well. I almost feel like if they kept the XL 46-48 and the 50-52 was a 3XL and made a 48-50 2XL, this would be perfect. I know that sounds funny and asks a lot of manufacturers, but it seems they are widening the sizing gap to make fewer sizes. Those things aside, it seems to be a nice jacket. I love having a double front zipper and these zippers are YKK which are supposedly the best. The zippers do feel like quality, however they are very fussy to work with. I like having lots of pockets, and with 5 pockets, this is good. The left side of the collar has a tenancy to want to stick up. I would think with some time and persuasion, it can be trained. I have a feeling I will return them both. The 2XL is simply far too large for me and the XL is just a tad small. I will say the arm opening on the XL is perfect though, where the 2XL was crazy big. It's a shame. I say if they have your size and you are not an in between, this is a great choice. Update: So, I ended up keeping the XL and here is a couple more observations. The length is a little too long for my taste. I prefer a jacket that sits at the waist, or just below. This sits quite a bit below the waist for my liking. I"m only 5'8, but I have long legs (31" inseam) and shorter torso. Whenever I sit down, I feel weird having to pull up the jacket (like pulling up your loose pants weird) to sit down without binding and pulling. An option since this has a double front zipper is to always pull the double zipper up before sitting, but it looks a little odd. That left side of the collar still sticks up, but I deal with it. The front zipper is a little finicky, but it's a nice heavy duty zipper. The two inside bottom pockets are straight up and down and deep, sometimes I wish they had a zipper or small piece of Velcro to keep it closed so I don't worry about things falling out if I have to toss the jacket aside. Minor point, no deductions taken off, just felt I should mention it. This vest jacket is not as light-weight as my Everlast. My Everlast was a windbreaker type, whereas this one has more of a fleece feel, but not overly bulky. I like the windbreaker type materials because my dry knuckles don't seem to snag when going in and out of my pockets. With this Propper Jacket, I get a little snag. Overall I think it will be a good vest jacket and have raised my rating verdict.
