The XL Measures 48" around & 26.5" from the shoulder to the bottom. I'd say go with the XL.

Go up one size as you may wear this over a jacket & may want to zip the front.

I ordered the Large considering I am a 40-42 chest... works just fine... you might need to have someone do the initial adjustment/fitting with you.

Thank you for contacting us. Size SMALL is size 38, M is size 40, L is size 44 and XL is size 48. You can measure your chest with a measuring tape and if your chest is between; 36 - 38 inches = you need size 38 38 - 40 inches = you need size 40 40 - 42 inches = you need size 42 42 - 44 inches = you need size 44 44 - 46 inches = you need size 46 46 - 48 inches = you need size 48 48 - 50 inches = you need size 50

Just like you, sizing said I should get an XL. I wear medium clothes. Glad I got the XL. Large wouldn't have fit. I think you should get the large. Good luck!

I posted my measurements in my review for the 2XL size, I have a 54 inch chest and a 50 inch waist, I think that the 2XL size will be perfect for you, you can make adjustments top and bottom to fit your build. Additionally, both Amazon and 5.11 are amazing companies, both with work with you on any returns or size questions.

I have one of these in size XL and it fits similar to most common brands of XL t-shirts through the chest and length. You should be good to go with whatever size you commonly buy.

Its hard to judge BC I got the wrong size Lol I'm around the same measurements I'd say get an XL to be safe. Mines incredibly too big at XXL so I'm sure a L would fit okay, XL would definitely fit, maybe be a little big even

you have to go by the chest measurement - that is how the company sizes, and then add 1". Use that size.My husband was a 43", so we bought 44. The shoulders are a bit tight when reaching forward. It is a bit of a baggy fit.

We have uploaded sizing chart in picture according to the waist and chest measurement it seems Extra Large will suits you best. Please go to the product page and check the sizing chart

I was the same and went XL. Fits tight and I think the large would be too small.

Get the large. It will be fine. XL will be too big I think. I was a 38 and wore the large.

I have a fairly large chest, pant size 36. I buy large and it's pretty snug but that's how I want this kind of shirt to be. Going off of the pants size I'd assume he's a little bigger than I am so I wouldn't go any less than XL. (If he wants it snug) I'd also suggest maybe going to a sporting goods store and trying them on then buying from Amazon.

Those things are tricky. I'm 5'1", 121 lbs, 38 hips, 34 chest and wear a size 2, small. It fits just right, with no room to spare. However, I've bought and returned small and mediums from other brands because they were either too tight around the hip and/or too big around the chest. I would go with a medium if your chest is bigger than mine. Good lucky.//L

Measure around your chest/upper back. Use the recommended chart(you may have to search around for other sizes on AMAZON to find the sizing chart). Sizes run small. According to the directions/measurement, I required a medium size. In actuality, I should have gotten a large for sure, no question.

I imagine large. I have a 42 chest and 30" waist. Bought large but medium would have been better. Not huge but a bit too big for me. Good luck

I have a 44" chest and 40" waist, and the 2XL fits me snugly. The Hot Leathers website has a size chart that says a 44" chest would be a Large, but there's no way that would fit me. Here's a link to they're sizing chart: http://www.hotleathers.com/images/size-chart1.jpg

I'm a little taller than you (5'8") and the large is a pretty good fit. The website may have a size guide that could be useful. It depends on your chest size and arm length
