The quality of materials and craftmanship in this C&C vest cannot be beat. Whether for going out partying or beating around the bushes, this vest cannot be beat. My measurements are 42-37-41 so I took an XL to allow for winter wear. Stitching is great and the material will keep out cold winds. Sharp looking. An L probably would have been fine, I just wanted to allow "extra" room. If TS would only stock more C&C here they would fly off the shelves! For us women sizes can vary by 2-3 sizes so trying on helps avoid returns. TS Is such an incredible shopping experience whether you know what you are looking for or not. Their staff are ALL knowledgeable, kind, helpful, and care about their customers!

I went off of suggested sizing and it was way to big. I got a womens 2X which was the suggested size for for someone like me that wears a large and it was even to big for my brother that wears and XL. So now I have to return it and guess on the right size. The color is also darker than the picture. Otherwise it seems to be well constructed.
