Armada Requiem Jacket

Getting this coat in a couple weeks. Sizing has me all screwed up. I'm 6'2" and weigh about 170. I usually wear XL clothes because I need the length, not so much the width, so I'm thinking about a L size instead of the XL coat because it is long fit.

If anyone has gotten this jacket or tried it on, answers would be nice to whether I should get L or XL.

Yeah its pretty tall, I just hate having to buy it online without trying it on first. I'd rather not buy it, figure out it is too big/small, and go through the trouble returning it

M = 34"
L = 36"
XL = 38"
XXL = 40"

I just picked up my requiem (harlaut model) and its pretty damn long. I'm 6'2" and a L comes almost to my knees. It sits right above my knees and the sleeves are the perfect length. Love this jacket

yeah because for me if they made a size between what they made as L and XL it would fit me to my liking, but the L is fine

Pretty sure I remember hearing somewhere that henrik rocks L. And he is 5'8'' so you can use that for reference.

My local shop carries all the Armada outerwear. Not sure when they're getting the full line in, but I'm 6'1" and about 190 so I can try it on and report back if you give me a few days. They said they might have the stuff in by the end of September to early October, so maybe this week?
