Castelli sizing

Was looking to get one of these from wiggle but wondering sizing with them. I wear a pearl Izumi one at present which is medium and is grand. Should I go for medium Castelli or large. Any ideas Cheers

What is it you wear?

I have a Castelli Windproof jacket and it's .......just perfect cut and size. Medium. They're made, it seems, on the small size'ish.

I have jerseys from both, the Pearl Izumi medium fits fine, but I have found that the Castelli is a smaller fit, the medium is much too small, the large is good.

For reference - I am 178 cm tall and 102 cm chest size. I will stop before it starts to sound like a personal ad. (for the record I am a Gemini with a gsoh)
