Shirt is good. No, it's not worth $500.

Would you please someone confirm size 3 is M or L in capital clothing?
My understand is 3 is M, but I saw in couple sites they refer size 3 as L.
Thanks!

Size 3 is ‘Large’ in tagging, but keep in mind that the actual size can fluctuate slightly depending on the piece. I have some things in three that fit me very well, and some that are at least one size too small. I’m a 40-42 as well. Starting to pick up 4’s (XL) just because the chest and shoulders generally fit much better

unless I am totally mistaken:
0 XS
1 S
2 M
3 L
4 XL

Well some of the items only come in 1/3 especially if they are meant to be slightly oversized. Like the cookie sweaters are generally like that. 3 fits me great for those.

So that table is for japanese sizing. IMO for your standard american/european I'd size up a number. So 3 = M, 4 = L, 5 = XL. I find their 4s fit like Ls from other (non-japanese) brands. At 6'0 and 190 lbs I'm a 4 or 5 in everything.

That being said, their oversized stuff (e.g., huge Ts) usually comes out in two sizes, 1 and 3. And in that case the 3 is like an XL or XXL.
