can anyone comment on the +J Wool Coat? Am thinking of going with an S from the measurements on UK site, but the shoulder size has me doubting this: says it's 17.5", which seems like it will be kinda tight for me.

I wear size S +J shirts, which are all around 17" shoulders, but wouldn't I want the coat a little bigger? Then again, I got a +J sweater in medium, and the sleeves are too long, etc.

**** is confusing me, and I want to get the right size without having to deal with returns or any BS. Thanks if anyone can help

Oh yeah, do shirts from JP and US correspond exactly one size difference? Because it seemed that way for everything but then I checked the flannel shirts and it seems everything is one size difference except the sleeves on the JP uniqlo is considerably shorter. Just measured differently?

Sleeves are shorter, other measurements should be the same when going one size up.

So I'm looking at uniqlo shirts, and it seems like the sizing is kinda whack. Seems like an XS is what I need, even though I'm usually a small/medium on other brands. What do you guys wear?

XS in Uniqlo, small in stuff like Gitman/Boo
