Mine is a 44 at 196 cm/90 kg
Looks good on you although perhaps a bit bigger than you would need. I find it a lovely jacket for the price tag! Just didn't like the button color but this is an easy fix. Do you contemplate about getting a size smaller? I had them come in different sizes and chose the one that fit best and realised, the sleeve length did not change too much. Those can look quite well fitted if one choses their normal size. We are used to upsize with asian brands, especially Bronson in those jackets. But this is a European brand that produces for the European custumer. What do you think?

I also had a 42 in mind, but it wasn't available with free return. I was also worried that the sleeves would be too short. The ones at 44 are borderline and just about work. Maybe I'll try out the blue one when I get the chance. Or the same again in a smaller size. At this price, I'll experiment a little. If I like the deck jacket principle, I might have a look at a pikebrothers or ironheart.

I still have a size 42 in olive in my wardrobe. It's still new and unworn. I only messed up the stencil and caused tiny stains at the letters. Plus I removed the Navy Contract label for reasons I can't remember. But it has the proper buttons as I swapped the originals on this one also. You can have it for free when you pay for the shipping costs. I need space in my wardorbe anyway.

That is generous. The question would be whether it is worth sending to Austria from where? I would then also pass on the less suitable jacket.
