G&B Expo Sizing

Post by soulman »

I just placed an order for a goat expo and am very excited. I opted for a standard size as I didn't really want to get into the whole measuring thing. However, I am regrettably in between sizes. I have a 47 in. chest. When I asked how the jackets ran I got transferred around a bit and found that there were differences of "opinion". I was finally told that I would most likely fit into their 46 reg. as the jacket tends to "run big". So o.k. heres my question(s).

Can anyone out there who owns an expo clue me in as to how it truly fits?

Should I have Sized up?
PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Sizing question....

When I ordered my FS Expo I also opted for the standard size which is what they try to fit you in if possible. According to their chart, I was in between sizes as well.......My measurements met the chart sizes for everything except the waist measurement and to me that was not that big of a problem. The length of sleeves and chest were what I wanted to be sure fit properly. They first sent me a 40Regular but it was just a bit too small.....the 42Tall really matched my measurements and I have really been happy with it. They have a good return policy so I would suggest trying what they send and then adjust your order based on that. There are others here who can add their thoughts and experiences that are probably more detailed than mine but just thought I would respond to your inquiry. Enjoy the jacket, it is really a great piece of gear! Regards, Williamson

Call them back and ask them if they could lengthen the sleeves a half in or so. It'll make a difference after breakin since they are elasticless cuffs.
