Got mine a couple of days ago too.

Body sizes vary irrespective of gender. I'm 5'9" but with an inside leg of 26-27", which means a long body. But my arms, like my legs, are short. I have wide hands, xl or xxl gloves needed to be able to get them on but stubby little fingers.

Getting a jacket that has the length means taking it somewhere to have 3-4" lopped off the sleeves. Same problem with the trousers, bought short and still have to have a few inches off.

At least I have no problem getting size 11 boots.
