I got some new pants this year and they make my jacket look small. I am trying to find an xl jacket for pretty cheap. Any ideas?

i cant help you out on the sizing, but im thinking about maybe selling my xl spyder transfer jacket. Its sick, but it might be too much if you wanted cheap, because its brand new.

the special blend is red white and black. i really like it but i cant figure out the sizing. i have heard that special blend used to size really big so i dont know if the xl will be too big or if the large will fit like my other coat. i really want a coat with some color to it.

The xl will be fine special blend will be fine. at most it will be mid thigh and i dont think they are that tall. definately the xl. and especially if your going to grow a little.
