i'm a bit broad chested, so i'm about a 41", shoulders are probably 17.5" based on shirts that fit me well.

That is helpful. I’m a 40” chest, but about a 18” shoulder. Really appreciate it!

Just grabbed my M to measure. It has been worn a ton for four years and counting, but the measurements seem to be close. The big exception is the sleeves which measure 3/4" shorter on mine, but that's expected with creasing of the leather. The back also measures a bit shorter too, maybe for the same reasons.

pit to pit: 20.75"
back length, bottom of collar to hem: 24.75"
sleeve, raglan style: 33.5"

I think I’ve asked this before but for a size 52, (42 chest, 34 pant) who sits between M and L - I’d imagine that’s a L in the blue blue Japan camp shirt. The disclosure on the site to size up has me thinking in the back of my mind I maybe an XL.

@gdl203 or @conceptual 4est do you have the waist, hip, thigh, knee, and ankle opening measurements in centimetres for the DBF Gurkha pants in sizes 46 and 48? Contemplating purchasing them.

Also the length of the zipper please
As someone who is persnickety about measurements, I would have asked for the rise. Do you really mean just the zipper length, regardless of the overall rise? Just curious since I've never thought the zipper length was different from one trouser to the next...

L, if you don't mind it being cropped; XL, if you need length in body

Shirt is awesome!
