Bought this as an extra layer to stay warm while cycling on cold days. Overall, it does its job well and is skin-friendly, but the manufacturer's claims are wrong. I know and expected it to be tight but it's really cozy. I would say that I am of average height and in good physical condition. 32" waist and 42" chest but I bought XL thinking it would make it a little looser. I was wrong, it's thick leather. I considered returning it but decided to keep it hoping it would give a little after wearing. Would I buy it again? Probably no.
