I'M A 6 FOOTER AND ABOUT 220-224 LBS (DEPENDING ON WHAT I HAVE FOR LUNCH) AND I ALSO LIFT. I'VE ALWAYS BOUGHT TNF JACKETS IN XL. ANYONE OUT THERE THATS CLOSE TO MY SIZE...WHAT WOULD YOU RECOMMEND IN THE MCMURDO? THE CHICAGO WINTERS CAN BE WICKEDLY BRUTAL.

One thing to note in this jacket is it wears HUGE! Yes I intended to use all caps there. This is meant to be an overcoat parka for many layers underneath. I normally fit XL and am bigger than this guy and I can wear this in a L if I was just wearing a shirt under it. Granted if I was in antartica, which is where this is made for, I would want an XL and have many other layers under this.

I would recommend that you do not post in all caps and then I would recommend that you get an XL and my final recommendation would be to consult the provided sizing chart
