They've run out now, but I'm wondering how well they fit in size small and if they're a decent buy for general wear as a mid layer on and off the bike?

Have an Akita in small. I’m a 38” chest and it’s close fitting at that - athletic fit so not baggy round the waist and does have good length on the back for me at 5’10”.

Really quite warm, so could be a bit much on the bike unless it’s really cold, or you’re reptilian blooded like me, but a good value mid layer for general knocking about.

Cheers! Definitely going to be getting one when they're back in stock then. Gutted I missed the Griffon

So...

This was delivered.

My wife promptly took the wind out of my sails by informing me it looked like I worked for Waitrose in it.

Also, a very baggy fit.

Oo-eck. Sorry about that - sounds very different to mine. 🙁 Wonder if the sizing has changed?

Fair point on looking a bit like a shelfstacker though...

Not your fault. I'm a 36", but it's also baggy in the tummy area.
