Fit is relative & subjective.
I am 5'10, 40" chest and 75kgs, average build. Jacket fits fine & comfy with a T-shirt.
Usually wear a 42 in originals and top end repros comfortably.
Note - The waistband was attached rather taught, which is a good thing for longevity, but it make the jacket sit high when unzipped. This will relax over time and wear.
