Wested Fit
How does the Wested fit in the chest? Does it tend to be generous or slimmer? I wear a 42 suit jacket. If I wanted to where the Wested with a light sweater, what would be good? I do [u]not [/u]like pulling the jacket up and having it tight around the chest.

I read a prior post that indicated that when ordering a Wested, you can request one of three types of fits: roomy, regular, and military. One person (I am sorry that I forgot this person's name) said that his Flightsuits 40R was the same as a military fit Wested 44R. He also said that he got a Wested in a 40R but with a roomy fit and it was spot on with the FS 40R. Apparently, FS is know as being a roomier fit.
Has anyone else had a similar experience? I am truly a 42 in a jacket, so I am hesitant putting out a larger jacket size when I have never worn that in another jacket.

Obial got it right;
I told Peter that my wested was my primary winter jacket, and also that I planned on starting an excercise program. And, I got bigger since then, but peter gave me room for both a liner and a sweater, as well as a bit of room for muscle to grow.
Now if only the muscle was as responsive as Peter...

When I spoke to Wested and told them about wearing layers, he (Peter, I suppose - forgot to get the name of who I spoke to) suggested going a size up(44L). The only thing I did differently was specify my lengths to be per my normal jacket size(42L).
