I do think so yes, as it's not a thick jacket.

Bought myself an Sj9 recently via AD, The same deal you're looking at. As someone else mentioned, way too warm to push a barrow or walk around in especially this time of year. Can imagine it's going to be immense in the depths of winter!

Buffalo is absolutely top quality.

Not cheap but they do use the best quality materials you can buy, like Pertex Quantum. I've got jackets that are 30 years old made from this material and I'm still using them.

Definitely a medium. I'm a 44" chest as well and the medium is snug on me with just a t-shirt.

Hi Cameraman

Thanx
So you are a Large withe enough room for a Hoodie underneath....

Does that leave you at all restricted for movement..

I'm just a 38" Chest and that's over a Hoodie ...!
On that basis a Medium should suit best.

I'm a 44" chest and a large fits me with room for a layer underneath. The medium is a bit snug even with just a t shirt.

Snugpak sizing is all over the place. I wear XL or XXL for normal clothes, but the sasquatch I have is a m and its big on me. I wouldn't dream of mail ordering their gear Tbh

I have the same challenge in t shirts I'm an XL.

But from looking at their website you need to consider what you will be wearing underneath the jacket as well as jacket length and also arm length.

So best to find somewhere to try them on.

I have the new Trakker thermal jacket. TechPro. It's mega and also 10,000 head rating. I've not yet found it too warm because it's quite breathable I think, but I've only worn it to 3 sessions so far so still early days.
