Bought this along with the desert dpm smock, this smock is brand new and the fit was excellent. Ordered an XL and got a 180/104 that fit me perfectly (5'9" 46" chest). Will be recommending these to my friends.

Really nice, tight around upper arms
Review by

Like the previous reviewer, Ordered XL, got a (190- 104) and it's brand new, in fantastic shape, great fabric and workmanship. And a classic design (it's not rain gear, it's a wind smock) with big pockets, a nice hood, drawstrings in the right places, double layer fabric in the shoulder area, etc.- everything one might want in a shell like this.
A few notes about the fit- I am 6'-2" 200 lbs with broad shoulders and long arms- length is good for me, chest fits OK (I am a 44L in a suit) with some room to layer. Odd part is that the arms are a little tight (some meat on my arms/shoulders, but I'm not super stocky)- so this works better for me with lighter layers underneath. So, perfect but for the slight tightness in the arm holes. What worked out really well, though- I gave it to my son who is also swim mutant- 6'-3" with wide shoulders and even longer, skinnier arms, (only 140 lbs.- narrower all the way around). The fit on him is great.
I've asked around and the rap on British wind smocks seems to be that the upper arms fit tight. Not sure if this goes for the even larger chest sizes- 112, 120, etc. If someone has better info. please advise.

Size as advertised - simplified from UK sizes. Appears new, but unused. Does not have any "long storage in damp warehouse" smell.

Great value all around

Wow. This DPM smock is amazing. The sizing was spot on for XL. Fit just right. The jacket was NEW. No fading, no signs of ever being laundered. It is an amazing value. I've seen the same smocks sell for 3 times the price.

Jacket is great! Came like new, and has been great in the field. Colors are good and pockets help with lots of storage. In addition, the ability to shape the hood is a plus.
