Swanndri Clothing sizes

[jtkirkland]

Greetings Colleagues,

I've been a long-time reader and now find myself compelled to post-

I am going to buy a Swanndri Bush Shirt and Ranger Shirt from www.ecowool.com. Their sizing information differs from the Swanndri website and I'm at a loss to know what size to order. Attempts to contact them via email have not yet borne results...

I measure 43" and I will not be layering the Ranger shirt with anything other than thin cotton or wool undergarments for daily wear. I will want to layer the Bush Shirt for cold-weather boating adventures and winter over-night camping etc. Based on Swanndri's website and measuring other garments I own that fit, I think I am looking at a L for the Ranger and maybe an XL for the Bush Shirt. Can anyone here offer advise?

BTW, the impetus for the purchase is a trip to Scotland I have planned for September; that, combined with free shipping to the US is the excuse for which I've been waiting to make a Swanndri purchase!

Thank you in advance for your comments.

If it helps...

I'm a chest size 42” and...

A Swanndri ranger in large fits me fine with room for a t-shirt or wool base layer.
A Swanndri Bushshirt in xl (Swanddri's own size label) fits me with room for base layers and something like a wool jumper underneath.
