Default Teknic Sizing experience?

Does any one here have any sizing experience with Teknic jackets? I'm thinking of picking up a 42 size jacket. I'm in between sizes. I wear either a 42 or 44 depending on the brand. I was wondering if anyone here knows if Teknics are true to size of if they run smaller or larger. Thanks.

I'm not sure if they've changed their charts but the Lightening I had was a 42 which was my suit size and the jacket fit perfectly...ditch the cheetos and you might be able to pick up a 42.

The only thing I a little bit concerned about is if it will have room for a back protector.

Consider the cheetos ditched. Actually I had a health scare about a month ago that was kind of a blessing in disguise. I'm on the fruits and veggies diet right now. Trying to get back to my 31 inch waist.

I just got women's teknic full leathers an they ran perfectly true to size. But they will definitely be snug with the back protector in.

Thanks for the help. I ordered it. I figured the worst that can happen is I return it for a different brand or style. Will let you guys know how it goes when I get it.
