As a guide I am a Medium to Large and this still fits me perfectly.
I bought it from new in 1997 in Ireland and have ever only used it for leisure purposes . That is to say…. It hasn’t gone fishing.

In saying that, it does have two small or light color tarnishes and a small tear in the hood ( see photos).
