most likely 44 with 46 length. but ofc you're way better off going by measurements. yes 10-15 pounds will make a difference but not a huge one

I ordered a stock size 48 MA-1, but I'm a little worried about the height. I'm around 6' tall, should I stick with 48 lengths or switch to 50?

I know I know, I should trust Charly. He seemed in a rush though during the sizing process (understandable) and I wouldn't mind a second opinion.

Unless the 10-15 pounds are going straight to your gut, it will definitely make a size difference in the jacket you're ordering.

Depends where you want it to sit- I'm 5"11 and I went with a 46 length and size 48 and the length is perfect where it falls at hip level. So IMO you should stick with a 48 length.

About 6'0" with long upper body here, I saw length measurements and went with stock 48. Perfect length for me, any longer and it wouldn't look as good.

I'm 6'1 with narrow shoulders and pretty much an all legs guy, went with a 46. I love me a cropped look but probably pushing it. we'll see.
