Contract N°W535AC-23380 Sewn by one single Master Sewer, from start to finish Master Made in Japan Sizing recommendations Luca is 1m80, 78kg, wears size 40 (Medium). Luca sized down from his usual Japanese size (Large). I felt that the size 40 was a bit more fitted while still being comfortable to wear and long enough in the sleeves. The 42 still fit me pretty good, simply a bit roomier, especially in the shoulders and sleeves. Because this jacket is lighter than the HERCULES (different lining, etc.), I felt that sizing down was the best way to achieve a versatile and fitted look.
