Antarctica Parka

Been wearing this parka for nearly a month and it's fantastic. The workmanship is top notch, and of course it's cozy and warm. Only hiccup for me was the sizing, so I have to recommend considering sizing down, at least for this specific parka. I'm 5'10" about 180 pounds, and I fit a measured 38R at the chest at the tailor. Based on the size chart I ordered a Medium which states is 37-39 inches in the chest. When the Medium arrived it was far too big, sloping a bit off my shoulders and a large air gap when tugged forward even with my bulkiest sweater. However, I reached out to Arctic Bay and arranged to exchange for a Small, has been *perfect.* Customer service was also genuinely kind throughout, and also made an exception to allow for an extra week on my return of the Medium as I was in the middle of moving. Again, other than the sizing hiccup (which is always a risk with trying a brand for the first time online), no issues. I recommend Arctic Bay to anybody who is interested.
