The really nice thing about J. Higgins is that if it doesn't fit, just return it and they will send you the size you specify. I ordered one, to their measurements, and it was a perfect fit, , but it had no extra room at all. (I measured 44" around the chest, it is eactly a 44! I dare not put on any size around the chest! That is why I said better to order just a bit larger than you actually are.
