Clothing sizes
Hi everyone
Im hoping you guys here can help me out. I had bought a repro Pat 37 BD from a well known British supplier. However we had some confusion with the sizing and i ended up getting one too small.
I had asked for a size 46long. When I took my chest measurment it came out to a snug 44 inches. I got this by measuring with a tape underneath my arm and around my chest. Since I wanted a bit more room I figured 46 would be fine.
I shoudl also add that Im 6'2"
The company from England suggested that I put on the one they sent "to determine exactly how many inches bigger and longer it needs to be"
How would I measure this out?
Also im concerened that jacket sizing my be different in England. Going by the BD size chart in "Dressed to Kill" I should be a size 18 or 31.
Anyhelp is most apprecciated as I have been waiting sometime to get my RHLI unform all done.
