These instructions cover sizes XS (S), M (L), XL (2XL), and 3XL.
These correspond to a chest circumference of 80-85 (85-90), 90-95 (95-100), 100-105 (105-115), and 115-125 cm.
So, for example, if your chest measurement is 93 cm, choose size M.
If you are between sizes, choose the larger size.
If you would like the slipover to be a little looser, you can also choose a size larger.
