Sizing Information
We put a size Medium on Huey and a size XL on Dewey for our Fit Check review and those are the sizes they normally wear. The jackets look great for the pictures, but in practice would probably be a bit snug. In checking Fieldsheer’s size chart for 2014 (see below), you’ll see that the chest sizes listed for each alpha size are a couple inches smaller than you would expect to see (at least in the smaller size ranges), and this confirms our observations.
My advice then would be to measure your chest and choose a size based upon the chart below, which for those in the Small to XL range will be one size larger (alpha size) than you normally wear. If you are between sizes, just choose the larger (don’t go 1-1/2 sizes bigger).
If you have a bit of a belly, you’ll want to make sure you won’t have a fit issue. To check, just measure and make sure the chest size of the jacket you choose is at least 4” bigger than your max belly. For example, if your belly is 40”, then choose a minimum size XL which has a max chest of about 44”.
| Jacket Size | Max Chest | Regular Sleeve Length | Tall Sleeve Length |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small | 38” | 25.5” | - |
| Medium | 40” | 26” | 28” |
| Large | 42” | 26.5” | 28.5” |
| XL | 44” | 27” | 29” |
| XXL | 48” | 27.5” | 29.5” |
| XXXL | 51” | 27.5” | 29.5” |
| XXXXL | 54” | 28” | 30” |
Tall sizes are available in this style. If you normally have to buy tall sizes in men’s clothing then buy one of the “tall” jackets to get more length in the sleeves and body. The tall sizes have the same chest and belly as the regular jackets, but they are 2” longer in the sleeves and torso. Sleeve lengths in the chart are measured from the shoulder seam to the cuff.

Our Two Cents
This is a special, limited time sale. The Fieldsheer products in our closeout department right now were all part of a new line of gear introduced in 2014. We really like the products (as you can see from my original review below). But about a year ago, these products were discontinued and sold by the Fieldsheer distributor for mass liquidation through limited channels (which didn’t include us). But through unlikely circumstances, some of the inventory has become available again and we are offering it at VERY GOOD prices. When this inventory is sold through, there won’t be any more, so make a choice while you can! :: Paul, 1-30-17
About this jacket: The High Temp Mesh jacket is a part-mesh/part-textile jacket that includes a full featured waterproof/windproof and separate thermal removable liner. I’ll tell you more about the liner system in a moment, but generally speaking, I’d recommend this design for those that live in warmer climates and want a jacket that will work for them most of the year. The overall style is waist-length sport and will appeal to just about any type rider. We’ve taken a whole series of photos for you to show all the features such as the storage, armor, etc, so be sure and click the “View Larger Images” link above to see those. The liner system included with this jacket will be the key to making this a multi-season design for you. Being part mesh, the outer shell will allow air to flow through to your skin quite readily, so without either of the two liners in use, you’ll get lots of cooling air that will be comfortable in even the hottest weather. For moderate or cooler temps or if it turns wet, you can use one or both of the removable liners. The Nanomax waterproof liner is made to work with the removable thermal liner so that you can “mix and match” to suit the conditions. For wet conditions, or for cooler temps, the waterproof liner can be used to keep you dry and/or to provide a wind block. If you’re interested, here’s a brief video that gives you some info about Nanomax. And if you need a bit of insulation, you can also add the thermal liner. So, for all but the coldest weather, you should be able to find a combination of liners that keeps you comfortable and dry. As for protection, CE approved armor is supplied for the shoulders and elbows. This armor is about like all other quality of armor you’ll find. And the back armor they supply is well above others in terms of overall sturdiness (just my humble opinion… not based on testing). Overall, this is a very nice style for warm weather, and one that will adjust for seasons and varying weather conditions. The dual liner system is the thing that will set this one apart from the many full mesh jackets out there. :: Paul, 12-11-13
