Kilamjaro 5.0 - How does it fit?

[PGWIN]

For those of you that have ordered Kilamanjaro's recently - what size jacket did you find fits you?

I'm 6.4, 190 lbs (36 waist, 42 chest, 35 sleeve length) and I ordered a LARGE/TALL.

Seems a little on the big side standing up (but ok) but when sitting on the bike with the knees bent i get a lot of bunched up material in the front.

Is this a normal thing with 3/4 length jackets or is this an extreme condition due to too big a jacket - see photos?

Do yours look like this when sitting on your bike?

On the bright side - this is one heavy duty jacket and shall i say "warm".

I'm 6ft 240 and I ordered the XXL. The jacket is very nice seems like a quality jacket. I actually returned mine to newenough. The jacket is very heavy lb wise and also very bulky, it was a bit more than I needed. It seems to be a jacket for extreme cold weather, I don't think I'll see much colder than 40 or 45 degrees, and that will only be during sunrise or sun set in late fall, early winter.

Nice jacket just not what I needed.

It does have an unusual bulge in the breast section......just don't wear a pink helmet and you'll be good.
                                                                                                                           

I got the black one and am more than pleased with it !    XL-Tall...6' 220lbs...with long arms.  Fits Perfect.

Looks like its fitting you the way it should from the pic.

The sleeve length appears correct, and that's something that will drive you batty if it's wrong.  That and armor not centering properly.   Thicker nylons are stiff when new, takes a while till it starts flexing naturally with you.  My suspicion is that if you snug the arm and waist adjustments down, the wind will beat any poofiness away.

Well, i tried a medium size but that was too small - a bit tight in the shoulders.  So i'm sticking with the LT.  The poofiness was corrected some with the reverse zipper opening a bit more at the bottom.

As for the medium, well my wife adopted it w/o going through the normal process! Kind of like possesioin is 9/10 of the law! Oh well.

I have several of the older 3/4 length Joe Rocket jackets...they fit just like your picture. FYI
