The measurements are closer to a size 46 except for the short arms

I own an Orvis ....but its a fly rod. This is a fishing company. Not an A2 Jacket maker and they probably contracted it out
or its made out of Graphite! Somthing's Fishy around here!! Not a bad pice though.
Never EVER buy a War jacket with a Dillards hanager!! mall jacket

They're mostly a clothing retailer at this point. But they don't show much scruple about military clothing. Everything they "reproduce" has passed thru the garment industry gantlet to be suitable for the average affluent male.

I do give them some props for turning their cloth A-2 into a bowdlerized 37J1 - allbeit bowdlerized, it's a hip reference to use at all.
