Size guide
Sweater No. 33 has an oversized fit. The recommended positive ease varies depending on size. Calculate a positive ease of approx. 25-30 cm [9.75-11.75 inches] for sizes XS-L and approx. 20-25 cm [7.75-9.75 inches] for sizes XL-4XL. 
The sizes are equivalent to the European standard sizes 34/XS (36/S) 38/M (40/L) 42/XL (44/2XL) 46/3XL (48/4XL) and suit a chest measurement of approx. 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) cm [31.5-33.5 (33.5-35.5) 35.5-37.5 (37.5-39.5) 39.5-43.5 (43.5-47.25) inches].

For example: You measure 88 cm [34.75 inches] at your widest + 25-30 cm [9.75-11.75 inches] = 113-118 cm [44.5-46.5 inches]. Meaning that you would choose a size S with a finished circumference of 114 cm [44.75 inches].
