Ta yes it’s for warmth .@Munro277 after reading the other thread I assume you do mean the 'hypertherm' insulation and not the waterproof.
I did try on the waterproof in the summer, think they were £70 in the Gretna shopping outlet. Again a Large was fine assuming you don't want to layer insulation under it. I don't think it would be a pleasant experience wearing it in rain though (whereas a slightly heavier Montane Minimus smock is tolerable in all but heavy or persistent rain)
ta its the jacket not the smock so Large hopefully ok..I had to go up to an XL with my Hypersmock, the only piece of XL clothing I own.
The L was okay once on but it was really awkward getting there, the coating inside is quite rubbery and it didn't give much wriggle room, I was paranoid about sticking and elbow through the fabric so went up another size.
I went up from Medium to Large for the smock and I'm glad I did for the same reason, plus I want to be able to wear a thin fleece under it.I had to go up to an XL with my Hypersmock, the only piece of XL clothing I own.

My wife has the jacket in size 10, which would normally fit and she finds it a bit tight across the shoulders.ta its the jacket not the smock so Large hopefully ok..

Edit to add, the waterproofs, not the insulated jackets - getting threads mixed!
Where was that el ? I’d prob go to XL for a smocklooks like you can get the smock for £88 - 156g amazing weight.
I’m 6 ft and now sadly approaching a few pound off the 14 stone marklooks like theres one in L and XL. The L fits me better now, i can put it on with no problems, no different to my PHD smock. I must still have at least another half a stone on you and roughly the same height(?), but XL if your unsure. Surprised Shewie etc needed to size up, imo they're not a tight/athletic fit.
