My son has one that he wears over his leathers, he's a 42 normal and bought the next size up which I think was a 44/46 and its slightly loose.

cheers gio,

will opt for the same size as it's stretchy material for a snug fit.

Scotty,

try here

they seem to have a wider range of sizes, and in their wee catalogue they even suggest ordering two sizes and returning the one you don't want (although I'm sure most places would let you do this if you asked).

HTH.

got 1 coming so will see how it goes when it arrives.

size medium for a snug fit over the leathers which it should be.
